Mikey's, (Blaine instructor), kickboxing classes are always intense.
What's your favorite workout song or music genre? Hip hop or any music mix Carrie Hachey, (Andover instructor) puts together!
How has living life at Level 10 changed your life? For the first time in my life I actually enjoy working out. Other gyms didn’t work for me. I wasn’t committed and never went. At Farrell’s I never miss a day unless I’m sick or out of town. Well, scratch the sick. It’s more like, when I’m out of town! When I miss a day I feel like I missed out on an important family function for the day. Farrell’s is my morning coffee after my 5AM work out I’m wide awake and ready for the day.
What's your favorite healthy thing to eat? Peanut Butter on celery or a Rice Cake.
What's your favorite free day splurge? My new favorite treat is lemon oreos.
Do you have any advice for 10-weekers? Show up for class every day and give 100% effort. Your workout can be as easy or hard as you make it. Working out 6 days a week is only half of the program. To achieve the results you are looking for you have to change your diet as well. It is true what they say - - you can’t out-exercise a bad diet - - trust me I have tried!
