Then LIFT &amp; Balance, which segued into Pilates and Boot Camp (\u201cthought I was gonna die\u201d) and Zumba. Now a Cardio Fusion regular and Pilates devotee, Cindy Culver worked her way around Active Wellness Center and our class schedule until she found her movement motivation. \u201cAfter my 60th birthday, I decided it was time to head back to the gym,\u201d she said. Not really knowing where to start other than she wanted to do classes, Cindy read through the descriptions to help her decide which ones would be suitable. \u201cThe instructors and other people in every class I took made me feel welcome from the very start,\u201d she said. \u201cThe instructors give us good direction and remind us to work at our own pace. I don\u2019t ever feel like a fish out of water and that makes me want to keep coming back.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Cindy is an accountant who owns her own business, and that allows her flexibility to go to the club when she wants. She can work classes into her day and still have time to hang out with her husband, son and two dogs. \u201cDuring Covid, we walked the dogs every day but at some point, it just didn\u2019t feel like enough. I knew I needed to kick it up a notch for my health.\u201d Cindy played the game right: She started slow, tried (almost) everything, and settled on the classes that she enjoyed and that felt right. \u201cI love love love Pilates,\u201d she gushed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou walk out of there knowing that you used every muscle in your body. I even bought some equipment so I could do the exercises at home, too. I feel so good when I\u2019m done; it\u2019s definitely a keeper.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cindy\u2019s enthusiasm and commitment have led to real results that she didn\u2019t necessarily expect. Her A1C, blood glucose levels, and triglycerides already have dropped thanks to her new exercise routine. \u201cI\u2019ve lost weight and inches, too; my pants are looser! I\u2019ve never seen results like this\u2026it\u2019s such an emotional thing for me. I felt terrible before coming back to the gym and it\u2019s incredibly powerful to see what your body can do when you choose to move.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cindy\u2019s next goal is to hone her nutrition with the help of our Fitness Specialists to ensure she\u2019s fueling her body for maximum energy and results. We know she\u2019ll tackle that with the same gusto that helped her get through the Boot Camp burpees.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong> Keep smiling and sweating, Cindy\u2026we\u2019re so excited for you!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cindy found her movement motivation at Active at Kruse Woods after her 60th birthday, trying out various classes until settling on her favorites.
