member spotlight

more about Rachel
I used to do group training classes at an old gym years back, and missed it a lot. I saw what Spark Fitness had to offer on Instagram and knew I had to get back into it. I feel that I push myself a little bit harder with a group than when I’m just by myself.
What’s your favorite part about Spark Fitness? The atmosphere! I love that everyone is always chatting before and after class. Everyone is always so friendly and easy to talk to. I know it’s a little corny to say, but we’re like one big happy family!
Favorite food: Tacos ๐
Favorite quote: โDreams don’t work unless you do.โ
Favorite hobby: Working out
Favorite exercise: Push press or deadlift
Advice to a newcomer: Consistency really is key. The first few days will be hard, but keep pushing through! Soon enough, you’ll notice things get easier and easier! You’ll be able to do moves you thought were never possible!
I’m one of the people that had to learn the hard way. I’ve been on and off with my fitness journey for years, and just in the past 3 months I’ve made more progress than I have in the past 2 years. I did it just by showing up and following my nutrition!
Great job Rachel! We can’t wait to see your continued progress!
now it’s your turn
If you’d like to see results like Rachel’s, sign up for our next 6-week challenge that starts on Monday, February 20. Contact us for more details.
happening this month
fundraiser: braids & shimmers by mp artistry
New Spark Fitness member Maegan is the talented owner of MP Artistry. She will be doing a pop-up for braids and shimmers on Savage Saturday, February 11 from 7-11 a.m., with all proceeds benefiting IceCycle.

pop-up stretch class
Stretchd Out Buffalo is teaming up with Spark Fitness to offer a Stretch & Restore class on February 19 at 11 a.m. that focuses on deep stretching, breathing, and mobility techniques.
Class starts with breathing techniques to help stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system (the system that helps us relax) then progresses into slow stretching and mobility flows. By the end of this class you will feel relaxed, restored, and hopefully will be able to take some of these movements and apply them into your daily life/workouts!
The class will be $10 for nonmembers and $5 for members. Sign up today!
