Before coming to Next Level Gym and training with Lauren, I had no clue what I was doing in the gym. My nutrition and training were terrible after high school! Lauren taught me the fundamentals of weight lifting and training. She gave me the most realistic approach to a lifestyle change that has lead me to where I am at today! I think the best part about what I learned with Lauren is that balance is so important! I still wanted to live the college lifestyle, but approach it in a much healthier way. She never suggested extremes with diet or crazy cardio, or that I was never aloud to have a drink or a slice of pizza again to be “fit". Lauren also is the reason why I have now competed in NPC Bikini! The dedication and persistence she talked about in her experience was so inspiring to me! I can’t thank you enough for the two years I was able to spend with you guys at the gym and take away so much more than I came with! I wish I was still in Stillwater today training with you guys!!
