It always warms our hearts when members share their success stories. Recently, one email particularly touched us – not just because of the transformation described, but because it represents what’s possible when you find the right approach to strength training after 50.
A Story of Transformation at 65 🌟
Meet Patti, who just celebrated her one-year anniversary at Core Principles Personal Training in Stamford. Her words capture something special:
“Had I not been working with the team at Core Principles for the past year, turning 65 last week would have been somewhat distressing. Instead of feeling older, I feel fit and energized. I see a huge difference in my core strength and feel all-around stronger and younger.”
Beyond Physical Strength: Building Community 🤝
But the transformation went beyond just physical changes. As Patti shares:
“I thoroughly enjoy meeting up twice a week with such a great group of people— it’s good for my mental health too! I can’t say enough about the coaches. They’ve made me feel welcome, protected from injury, and inspired to be my best self for the last year.”
The Journey From Skeptical to Strong
When Patti first started, she approached with what we call “tempered optimism.” After trying numerous gyms, physical therapists, and chiropractors, she wasn’t sure anything would help her persistent back, shoulder, and elbow pain.
Sound familiar?
Common Concerns When Starting:
