FEATURED MEMBER: Kaley


This week's Featured Member is Kaley.  I've seen her around the gym a lot, and Asa sees her in a lot of the classes he takes and recommended that I feature her.  Like most of us, she's super busy but carves out time to stay active!



Tell us a little about yourself.
I have two very busy kids (3 yrs. and 6 yrs.) who keep me running everyday.  We enjoy being outside and spending lots of time with our family and friends.  I'm just starting my second year working at Portage North Middle School and I am loving every second of it! 

What is your usual weekly workout routine?
Normally I try to do Pump 3 times per week and Combat 5 times per week.  When I get the chance to do the other Les Mills classes, I do them as often as I can.  I also enjoy running and lifting when I have the time. 

What are your go-to snacks and meals?
One of the snacks I always have with me are almonds and dried fruit.  I also eat a lot of yogurt with fruit mixed into it.  My number one favorite thing to eat is ice cream!

How do you balance being active with the demands of your daily life?
I rely on my set schedule.  After work I pick up my kids from school and head straight to the gym.  This way I have no excuses not to go.

What is a fitness or healthy living goal you have for yourself?
My main goal is to just feel good.  The time I spend at the gym is the only "me time" I get.  This is the place I can relieve stress and not think about anything that's going on during my day.  I turn my brain off for an hour and relax while I workout.

What do you like about being a member at SWAT?
I love the Les Mills classes!  I spend most of my time at SWAT doing the group fitness classes. 

What is your favorite class at SWAT?  Why?
I really enjoy all of the classes I've tried but will always love pump and combat.

Do you have a person who is your healthy living/fitness inspiration?  Who and why?
I am motivated by the other members and instructors all working hard around me.
