Why did you choose Prevail Conditioning? I met Peter and Erin through church and started working out at Prevail shortly after moving to Santa Barbara. I stuck with them because I love the instructors and my workout pals.

What is your favorite exercise? Anything with the slide board (as long as there is a good beat playing).

What is your least favorite? Barbell hip thrusts.

How does Prevail Conditioning differ from other fitness centers you have been a member of? I like the family atmosphere and individual attention that I’ve never received at other gyms in the past.

Who do you think could benefit from training at Prevail and why? I think people over 30 could really benefit from finding a good movement routine to try to prevent injuries that become more common as we grow older. Since coming to Prevail, I have noticed a tremendous improvement in my core strength, which has prevented back pain.

What is something you have achieved since working out at Prevail that you are most proud of? I lost about 20 pounds with the Precision Nutrition program and I am now able to do pull-ups unassisted.
