A REVFIT Success Story: Stephanie C.

video transcript

What stands out for you the most about REVFIT?

It's the energy when you walk in the door. They know your name and call you by name and are excited to see you. I think that's something I look forward to each day and it really has become a pivotal part of my day. I come after work and so it's kind of a good way to reset before I go home. It's that in between, it's that me time. 

How has REVFIT helped you at work and in your career?

It's really incredible how much this has contributed to my ability to lead. Running a hospital is full-time, full energy. It requires so much. I love what I do, but I'm only able to do that because I take care of myself. I also think that it's provided me the ability to be an example to my team about how to set your priorities and how to ensure that you bring your best self to work every day. 

What has REVFIT done for you outside of work and your career?

Well, I can say that I turned 50 this year and REVFIT has given me so much confidence, not just with changes in my body, but also changes in my posture and in the way that I feel about myself. And I think you show up differently when you are dedicating that time and consistently feeding yourself, feeding your mind, feeding your body, feeding your soul. 

When I first started, I injured my back outside of the gym, but I still wanted to work out, so I called and they said absolutely we can show you how to do the exercises in a way that you won't exacerbate injury, but you'll actually heal. So I think the trainers do a really good job of not just watching each person and doing corrections, but also modifying when there's an injury that needs to be worked around.

What else do you want to share about your REVFIT experience?

Working in a hospital during the pandemic was one of the most challenging things I've ever experienced, but the ability to continue with exercise provided that mental clarity. REVFIT provides a release, if you will. The workouts give you a chance to escape from other things going on in your life that might be causing stress and really coming out fulfilled and as a much better version of yourself. 

I think regular workouts give you the ability to be more creative, and with that creation you're able to problem solve that ability to do hard things. Kevin says that all the time. You can do hard things. That's what this does for you. 

REVFIT gives you that confidence to tackle everything else going on in your life and regular workouts really impact your ability to problem solve. I read a book one time, it's called “You Can't Get What You Don't Have.” And so I think about that a lot and I've shared that with my team and I feel like taking care of yourself is not just something that's good to do, but it's an obligation. It's an obligation as a leader. It's an obligation to the work that you do. It's an obligation to your family.
