Nickname: Lys

Hometown: Westfield

What brought you to Roots: I grew up about 2 miles down the road and joined when the gym opened!
-
What do you do outside of Roots: Spend time with my horses and dogs.
-
What's one goal you have at Roots or one goal you had that you've since accomplished? Within the last year my goal was to get stronger. I was having chronic SI joint/sciatic pain and I wanted to build muscles to help relieve this pain. I can say that when I first started I had to take it slow and modify a lot but now I have less pain the more I come to the gym! The gym became less about losing weight and more about becoming strong and I can say I enjoy it so much more.
-
What's your favorite spring activity? In the spring I enjoy getting outside and gardening.
-
What's your guilty pleasure? Chocolate!
-
What's your best tip for new members/new riders? Just show up! It doesn't matter what level of fitness you are at, everyone makes you feel welcome and it's YOUR workout!
