“I got sick, and after being sick, I wanted to look after myself; I got into eating better and exercising. I feel the healthiest I’ve ever felt.”
Samantha is a mother of two, studying nursing (full time), working part time as a hairdresser and she is dedicated to her health and fitness – working out regularly at Rebuild as well as taking arduous care of her nutrition.
She’s Rebuild Health & Fitness’s member of the month for this month - celebrating our members who show tenacity and commitment regularly in gym - and outside.
She remains dedicated to her training, pushing hard in the gym. The coaches applaud her for being ‘trainable, friendly and enjoyable to have in class’. James says: "Sam is an absolute pleasure to coach and be around, she’s a quiet achiever, her improvements have been nothing short of brilliant and I really do enjoy having her as a part of Rebuild Health & Fitness.”
The 29-year-old mother of two joined the Rebuild community in July last year, after relocating to Brisbane from Rockhampton and says though it’s tough sometimes, it’s the people that make it enjoyable. She says: “I love the community vibe – I like the people at Rebuild.”
She says she loves the support at the gym and felt welcome from day one. “The coaches – and the people - are my favourite part. I feel like everyone is very encouraging and they actually take the time to know everybody and I think that a lot of gyms miss that. No one really cares about you - you’re just another number. But here, everyone knows everyone, and they want you to do better.”
Sam is working on building up her strength, to nail gymnastics work: “My goal is to get stronger, I want to do one pull-up, that’s a goal for me.”
You'll typically see Sam working hard during either the 9:30am or 4:30pm classes at Rebuild Health & Fitness, quietly getting it done.
Well done Sam!
