I have lost 35 pounds and I’m in better shape than I’ve ever been.
Growing up, I was always active and was a multi-sport athlete in high school. But when I went to college, I became a stereotype; I gained weight and ate anything at any time.
While some of the weight came off post-college, I had come to accept my larger size as my “adult” figure, even through getting married and turning 30. The final straw came after I had my daughter in January 2015. I couldn’t deny my size or how I felt any longer; I needed to get back to a better self.
I had heard great things about Shred415 from friends in the city, so I took it as a sign when Hinsdale opened in July 2015. Taking that chance on the unknown in the studio was the best thing I could have done.
Not only has Shred415 helped me shred 35 pounds (and three pant sizes, two top sizes), I’m in better physical shape than I’ve ever been, and just turned 33! I can honestly say that not only am I in the healthiest shape I’ve been physically, but Shred415 has given me mental strength as well—giving me time for myself each week. As a new mom, it’s making me the best version of me for my daughter.
Erinn, Wendy, Marzena, ad all the other fantastic instructors and team members have been so supportive and encouraging. I’ve found myself again and couldn’t be happier! I’m so grateful and proud of what I’ve accomplished as this workout is exactly what I needed to feed my inner competitive athlete!
