My go-to gym whenever I am visiting my parents down in Ocala. Lots of equipment and free weights,…read moreand a visitor day pass is only $6.50 - can't beat that! The gym itself is nothing special to look at. It's kind of like a beat up, but comfortable, pair of shoes. The building its in is in need of a paint job, much of the free weights and machines are outdated, and the cardio room smells a bit moldy. The locker rooms are small and a bit musty. Still, it has a charm and appeal to me that I can't put my finger on. Kind of reminds me of the old-school hardcore gyms I used to train at in my past. I did notice they recently added some new machines to go along with the line of equipment already there. The upstairs room has a load of free weights, benches, racks, and other equipment. Another room on the ground floor features all the leg machines, squat racks, and raquetball courts. Another room has a good amount of cardio machines. Also has a room for classes, and an outdoor play area for the kids and day care. Mixed group of people of all fitness levels seem to work out here, and staff is pleasant. It just all seems to fit like an old glove.

I started the 6 weeks program after meeting with Kevin & writing down my goals. Coach Pam provided…read moreme with a nutritional plan to follow including a breakdown of daily consumption, foods to eat, foods to avoid, & a grocery list. The first week, I was logging in my daily meals on the Wodify app & Pam was giving me feedback as to what improvements to make to help me achieve my goals. As far as the nutrition went, this program took care of all questions. They also provided me with a cook book of recipes which included a protein pancake recipe that I have been eating every day for the past 3 weeks. It is full of protein, flavor, & keeps me from having to snack before lunch plus, it's a pancake yum! Other resources for nutrition included travel tips, meal prep, & restaurant cheat guide. As far as coaching & workouts, Coach Carter took time every day to design our workouts ahead so we could see the workouts before class so it takes the guessing & nervousness away. Once in class Coach Jenn, Coach Chandler, Coach Pam, and Coach Carter made sure to explain, demonstrate, & have us practice each movement before the workout. I like the amount of time we spent warming up & getting the right movements before the workout & how fun, do-able, yet challenging each workout was. It's not repetitive so you're constantly fighting the muscle memory. My most intimidating moment was flipping a 150lbs tire- I did it 15 times! Next workout, I went for a 170 lbs. tire- great full body workout. I didn't even know how much you can get out of a kettlebell until joining this program. I even bought my own to workout at home using the at home workout tips, exercises, & 7 minutes in heaven workout they provided for days I could not make it to class. First week, I felt as if this was beyond my capabilities. Working out 3 days a week felt very difficult, but by week 3, I completed 4-5 workout days in class. This is very do-able, you just have to believe that you can do it & put your all into it. Everything is scale, so you work at your own pace, but still challenging yourself. The progress really shows- by week 3 everyone in class was running the 200m and more than half was running 400m. The coaches have been awesome & very helpful. The Facebook group is phenomenal. Everyone is supportive- sharing recipes & coordinating workouts. I am much slimmer; lost 7.2 lbs. and 6.3% BMI which has made a huge difference for my shoulders, arms, and abdomen. It's a program that works if you do the work. Here is a log of my progress: 1st week- Monday April 16, starting weight: 116.6 lbs; BMI: 31.4% Worked out M, T, H, F. Ending weight on Friday April 20th 114 lbs. 2nd week- Thursday April 26, weight: 112.2 lbs; BMI: 27.4% - I had lost 4% BMI! Worked out M, T, W 3rd week- Friday May 4, weight: 113.8 lbs; BMI: 26.4%. I put some muscle weight! Worked out M, T, W, H, & F. 4th week- Friday May 11, weight: 113.2lbs; BMI: 25.1%. 6.3% BMI loss achieved!

Yes, there often is a bit of a wait time in the office, but this is because Dr. Linn takes the time with each and every one of his patients to thoroughly explain the diagnosis, treatment plan, and any questions or concerns you may have.

He has treated me for my chronic plantar fasciitis, two foot fractures, and did surgery to repair my extremely damaged big toe joint.

She drove 45 mins in the middle of the night to get to the hospital. On top of that, she had to wait outside for 3 hours until my Covid test came back - all during that time, she was constantly in contact with me and my mom making sure I was ok. Once she came in, she had everything I never knew I'd even need. She was so calm and comforting and always made me feel like I was in control and reassured me I could have my baby naturally. She brought anything you could want and everything you forgot (she even left me with her phone charger when mine wouldn't work :)) Not only did she help me deliver my baby boy naturally, she cut his cord and followed him into the NICU when I asked her to. She goes above and beyond and truly feels like a family member being there. Personal experience of giving birth is the best experience I'd want a doula to have and trust me, she has that! I can't and would never recommend anyone else!
