Knoxville’s Only “Fit Over 45” Private Training Studios
“Five years ago, I was preparing for a high altitude 5-day backpacking trip,” said Karen Peck. “Knowing that I wanted to experience and enjoy the long days of backcountry meant being strong, lean, and fit. I wasn’t sure how to achieve this on my own. Thankfully, a friend recommended Fitness Together.
“From my very first meeting and assessment, I knew it would be a great partnership. They have a method of laying out attainable goals, creating dynamic training sessions, and balancing challenge. The trainers are skilled and caring, making the sessions fresh and fun. The result is a path to ultimate success.
“Setting a physical goal in the form of a challenging adventure, and maintaining training year-round, is a successful formula for me. Other aspects of good health naturally fall into place. When COVID-19 hit, so much of every day life changed. My travel plans were canceled. I stayed home. It became apparent after a few weeks that I needed to build a new structure for my overall well-being – an important part was returning to the Fitness Together gym. So, for the last six months, I have met with my trainer virtually and worked out at home. The decision to focus on my health and maintain my fitness routine strengthened me mentally and physically. COVID-19 will pass. I want to be healthy, happy, and ready for adventure when it does. Next spring – it’s trekking in Nepal to the Base Camp of Mt. Everest!
“I believe that taking care of yourself is an investment for the present and future. The Fitness Together trainers haven’t just prepared me well for physically challenging trips, they aided in my recovery from shoulder surgery and occasional aches and pains. I know that the increased strength, balance, and flexibility that we have built are protecting me as I age. I recommend them to everyone I know!”
Karen recently turned 66 and has been blessed with good health. She enjoys a variety of outdoor sports, including shooting sporting clays, golf, and trekking. Each year she plans one or two adventures that challenge her strength, endurance, and conditioning, knowing that will drive her to focus year-round on her health and fitness.
