- Your Degree Team

What brought you to Degree in the first place?

I am fairly new to Huron County and found myself just sitting at home quite a bit. I was not feeling my best and needed some sort of activity in my life. So I figured I would try a gym!

What was your first impression? How has it changed?

I have to admit I did a lot of research of all the gyms and fitness options in the area before I chose Degree. My first impression was "this is going to be hard". That really hasn't changed much - it is hard but you can do it, and over time you realize you can do more. It is exciting to watch yourself grow and accomplish new things. When I started I was pretty nervous and a little anxious, but the coaches make it easy and help you every step of the way. 

What was your first Bright Spot?

I don't know what my first bright spot was - likely that I just showed up for class or wasn't late haha. 

What are you working on now?

I am just working most on my confidence and trying to convince myself to try new things and push a little bit harder each week. I had a pinched nerve shortly after starting at Degree and I am finally back to normal now. I tend to feel comfortable with what I know I can do but I don't always want to push myself to my full potential. I find I can do more than I think I can, I just have to believe in myself and give it a go.  

What is your advice for someone who is thinking about starting Group Training?

Just Start - you will learn as you go and everyone at Degree is really lovely. There is a reason they call us the Degree Family: every time you come to class, people welcome each other and say hi even if you don't know each other. We all cheer, support and encourage each other; it makes a great environment especially for beginners.
