We are so very proud of Kay Knox as she officially became part of the Dallas Fire Department last Friday! When Kay started here almost 2 years ago she was struggling to pass the physical test required to get into the academy. Kay got stronger, faster, and overall more badass and crushed it. We are so lucky to have her, Charles, and Lullaby as members. Way to go Kay!

The Results Are In
The Spring Body Composition and Attendance Challenge has officially come to a close and we are proud to announce the results! Over the last 9 weeks we have had several committed individuals who put in work and changed themselves for the better through tweaks in nutrition and increased class attendance.
Matt Sitser is your body composition winner after a very close race. He had an overall 20.12% decrease in fat mass in only 9 weeks. He also stacked on 7lbs of muscle which is almost unheard of! There were a couple of others who we have to mention as well. Jason Anderson, who has been killing it by the way, came in second with a 17.36% change. Letecia McClendon hit a nice 16.2% while Shannon Mullinix put up a 14.98% decrease. Well done everyone! Super impressive!
Liz Dominguez won the attendance portion of the challenge. She attended a total 0f 39 classes in just 9 weeks. This number just goes to show you Liz’s commitment to our program. She has been a rockstar recently and has made big strides since joining with us.
Both Matt and Liz will receive $100 gift cards to Lululemon. Congrats you two!
