Ruth Palmer
Since Ruth had her first scan on the 17th of February, Ruth has continuously lost body fat every month for a total of 12 lbs of body fat in 4 months! Her body fat percentage is down almost 5% as well. She always pushes herself in her semi-private classes, increasing her weight every time while encouraging others to push themselves. She has stayed on top of her nutrition and is really embracing the entire journey of her health and fitness!
Since Ruth has started training with IPT, she has accomplished more milestones than she thought were possible at the beginning of this journey. Her legs are steadily gaining strength, currently able to deadlift 155 lbs, and her arms and chest are becoming stronger while being efficient, currently able to chest press 30-35 lbs. Incorporating cardio has also helped with her energy level during class and in everyday activities.
“A few notable changes that have developed during the last few months at IPT is the ability to understand the importance of nutrition on an overall level vs thinking of nutrition changes as a short term diet. Consistency is important to overall health. Working out and being mindful of what I eat throughout the week makes more of a difference than a half-hearted attempt.
IPT is a great place to train due to knowing exactly what to expect in terms of services provided, knowledge of staff, and environment. I love being able to know my exact workout schedule, knowing that my spot will always be there, and that I am surrounded by not only great supportive trainers, but also fun and motivating fellow IPT-ers!
Get to know those around you in class. It adds to the overall experience positively. You help motivate one another and laugh off your struggles. Embrace the lifestyle. Even though at first it was a bit tough to get into the swing of things, being mindful of nutrition and integrating both the workouts and cardio into my everyday life has been quite a positive change!
Congrats Ruth!! We are SO proud of all your hard work and dedication you put in each and every day! You earned this! Keep up the grind and we will continue to see your growth!
