Jared’s story
From Hesitation to Progress: A Member's Journey at Timber & Steel
When Jared first considered joining Timber & Steel, he shared the same hesitations many of us feel when starting a new fitness journey. Having faced disappointing experiences with exercise classes in the past, he was initially skeptical and leaned towards personal training as his preferred path. However, one conversation and a single class completely changed his perspective.
"After just one class, I signed up without hesitation," Jared recalls. What struck him immediately was the unique energy of the gym and its thoughtful approach to fitness. Unlike his previous experiences, Timber & Steel emphasized proper form, offered thorough warm-ups, and provided scaling options for members at different fitness levels.
In just a couple of months, Jared has already noticed significant improvements, particularly in his mobility. "While Timber & Steel does focus on lifting weights and building endurance, there's a big emphasis on doing exercises correctly," he explains. Through personalized stretching routines and careful attention to form, he's now able to perform exercises that were once beyond his capabilities.
The impact of his fitness journey extends beyond the gym walls. Jared finds joy in the simple things - taking longer walks with his family and having more energy to wrestle with his kids. These small victories represent meaningful improvements in his quality of life.
What truly sets Timber & Steel apart, according to Jared, is its supportive community and attentive coaching. "No one looks down on you if you're not able to do everything perfectly," he shares. "The coaches are right there with you the whole time, making sure you're getting the most out of each workout." The encouragement from fellow members, who cheer each other on during challenging moments, creates an uplifting atmosphere that keeps him coming back.
Like many busy individuals, Jared faces the ongoing challenge of maintaining consistency, particularly with early morning workouts. However, he's tackling this head-on by making meaningful adjustments to his sleep schedule - a testament to his commitment to his fitness journey.
One of his proudest achievements so far came just a few weeks into his membership when he completed 12 rounds of the challenging "Death by Air Bike Calorie" workout. This accomplishment, while physical in nature, represented something much more significant - the realization that he was capable of pushing beyond his perceived limits.
To those who might be feeling uncertain or intimidated about starting their fitness journey, Jared's message is clear: "Timber & Steel is a great place to start. You have a great environment that is very supportive. You don't need to be in great shape to start (I know I'm not), and everyone is very encouraging."
Looking ahead, Jared is excited to track his progress and see how his performance metrics improve over time. His story is a powerful reminder that the journey to better fitness isn't just about physical transformation - it's about finding a supportive community that helps you become the best version of yourself.
