It is our pleasure, and with the enthusiasm of her workout peeps, to recognize Jen Petroelje as the CV Fitness Member of the month for March 2019.
She joined CVF four years ago because she wanted to start exercising before menopause. Her personal training sessions three times a week allow her time to pay attention and focus on herself which is an unexpected benefit.
She has lifted far more weight than she ever thought she could and she credits that to her gym cheerleaders who give her lots of encouragement.
She set a goal last year to hike to the bottom to the Grand Canyon and then back up – a 27 mile trek. She trained for six months and after a lot of hard work and many, many lunges and step ups, she made that goal!
Exercise has become a habit. She finds it nice to feel strong and building strength came as a surprise. It’s not unusual to see her and April 2018 Member of the Month Nick Chavez ending their workouts with a rope and medicine ball slam relay that makes you feel tired just watching them.
She says the people make CVF fun and her advice is to follow the 5 Keys to Success.
