Amys Goal: 21 pounds in 12 weeksIt’s back to school season and we’re suddenly reminded of our own school days. Things have changed since then- instead of five cups of coffee during late night study sessions, today’s college students are consuming sugary energy drinks to keep their eyes open. With little time in between papers & projects, students are heating up Ramen noodles and squeezing in time to binge on the all-you-can-eat buffets lined with more poor decisions than healthy ones. After a few weeks of this lifestyle, the “Freshman Fifteen” rears its ugly head -- an expression referring to the extra weight college students tend to gain in their first year on campus.If you've experienced traditional college life, you can probably relate to the transition of priorities and the poor dietary decisions. The stress of new priorities and hard deadlines most likely left you with a less-than nutritious diet, and a schedule so tight you couldn’t squeeze in a phone call with mom, let alone a trip to the gym. Performing at His Peak through PAC
“Timmy is very gifted... a little cocky, but gifted,” PAC Fitness trainer Perry Coolbaugh jokes about his student Timothy Cavanaugh. “I’m just kidding. He’s about as humble as they come.”
Now a freshman at Holy Redeemer, Timmy began training with Perry as a 110lb 7th grader who wanted to build strength for baseball and basketball. “It’s hard work, but it’s fun. I enjoy it.” he says almost two years later. Timmy uses the phrase “tough love” to explain the dynamic between Perry and himself. Perry calls it his “hate me now, love me later” philosophy. The playful but focused relationship between Perry and Timmy must be working, because Timmy has recruited a good portion of his baseball team to join him for Spring Training with Perry.
Victoria’s Victory
PAC Fitness Prodigy Reaches Peak
Victoria now works out seven days a week, between PAC and her cardio gym workouts- all on top of working as a full-time teacher at Wyoming Area. When asked if it was hard to make time for such an intense workout schedule, Victoria simply stated that fitness is her number-one priority. No commitment issues here.
Kid's Play That's Not Kid's PlayThere’s a certain catch-22 when going to the gym. Fears of inadequacy, embarrassment, and failure get stuck in your throat as you watch tightened and toned gym-goers do their thing. You can’t go to the gym while you’re this out of shape, but you can’t really get into shape unless you go to the gym. So when I was headed to PAC Fitness to get a glimpse of their young adult class, I became acutely aware of that second muffin I had for breakfast and my jiggling thighs. “Oh no,” I thought, “even kids have more motivation than I do.”Page 1 of 2 Warning: Illegal string offset 'active' in /home/pacfit/public_html/templates/pacf_interface04/html/pagination.php on line 34 Warning: Illegal string offset 'active' in /home/pacfit/public_html/templates/pacf_interface04/html/pagination.php on line 40 Warning: Illegal string offset 'active' in /home/pacfit/public_html/templates/pacf_interface04/html/pagination.php on line 34 Warning: Illegal string offset 'active' in /home/pacfit/public_html/templates/pacf_interface04/html/pagination.php on line 40 «StartPrev12NextEnd» |
