After years of struggling to break the cycle of gaining and losing weight only for it to return within a year or so, I had reached a breaking point. The day that I walked into RevFit Gym, (July 2019) I was ready for a serious change and was done with feeling unhealthy, uninspired, and perpetually fatigued.
 
After touring several gyms in my area and finding no motivation to join them, I decided to search the Lafayette area. I immediately knew that there was something special and completely different about RevFit. I received a warm and sincere greeting from a front desk staff member and quickly realized that the same warmth, sincerity, and humility was visible in every staff and gym member I encountered. This welcoming, family-like environment is what sets this gym apart from all others and has helped me to reach my goals and has inspired me to maintain them.
I joined Sandra’s 6 month bootcamp program and never looked back. Under her skillful training, I met my weight loss goal of 40 pounds within the first 4 months. I became stronger and experienced running my first 5k (which was one of my personal goals). I eventually switched over to her maintenance program for 3 more months in which I lost an additional 10 pounds shortly after the pandemic shut down the gym. However, Sandra’s commitment was unwavering and she continued to train her clients virtually. The encouragement, discipline, and accountability she instilled in me will forever have a lasting effect on my health and future. For this, I am eternally grateful.
 
Unfortunately, when there was so many uncertainties surrounding the pandemic and concerns for everyone’s safety, I reluctantly decided to step away from the gym until things would somehow return to “normal.” Within a few months, I realized how much I sorely missed every aspect of RevFit, especially the staff and fellow members.
 
I returned in January 2021 and once again I was welcomed by the staff with the same warmth, sincerity, and humility that drew me to this wonderful place back in 2019. Joining this gym has and always will be one of the best decisions I have ever made.
Dedication, commitment, and hard work will help you to reach your goals, but having the right gym family by your side will help you to maintain and extend them further than you can ever imagine.
