Shreeja has shown incredible progress during her time at PTS and we are so lucky to have her as part of our community! Here, she shares her journey with Prototype. Thank you for being you — you truly deserve to be our August POM! 1.) Share your experience at Prototype. Joining Prototype was one of the best decisions I have made in my fitness journey. My first class was a blur of burpees and sweat, I could hardly keep up. A big shout out to all the coaches who are top tier, the workouts are constantly varied but always effective.I have hit the strength goals I never thought possible. 2.) What is your favorite part about being at Prototype? Prototype’s tight knit community is unique. It has taught me that showing up, even on tough days, builds more than just muscle- it builds grit and community. 3.) What are your hobbies and activities? I love dancing - it is one of my happy spaces. I am a homebody- love to spend time at home with family and friends. 4.) How has Prototype helped you or solved a problem for you? I was inconsistent with fitness and struggled to stay motivated. I needed a structured way to build resilience. The Prototype community has helped me push through self doubt. 5.) What are you continuing fitness goals to this point? My goal is to keep pushing my limits. I am not just chasing goals, I am excited to see how far I can go and just keep hitting the PR’s on the way 😀 6.) Favorite Quote - “There is no growth in comfort- You don't have to be extreme just consistent.”

Kathy has been an amazing member of the PTS community for 12 years and an incredible part of our community. Here, she shares her journey with Prototype. Thank you for being you — you truly deserve to be our July POM! 1.) Share your experience at Prototype I love Prototype. I knew Mike and Brian from BSC and Mike approached me one day, saying that he thought I would really love a crossfit workout. Naturally, I thought he was out of his mind. I have loved every minute of my time for the past 12 years. 2.) What is your favorite part about being at Prototype? The community. No matter what class I take, everyone is warm and welcoming. It isn’t always easy to walk into a new class, at Prototype that is never an issue for me. 3.) What are your hobbies and activities? I love to travel. I enjoy hiking, walking, tennis and swimming. 4.) How has Prototype helped you or solved a problem for you? When I am at Prototype, I can block out the noise of the world around me and just breathe. 5.) What are you continuing fitness goals to this point? My dad lived until 101.5 years old. He always did some form of exercise and it paid off for him. My goals are to continue to be active, get on the floor with my grandchildren and be able to get up. I really feel that exercising is akin to making a deposit for the future. There will come a time when I will have to make some withdrawals, and I want to have enough deposits to cover those withdrawals. 6.)
