Ronda's Story, Part 2...

“One thing I’ve learned over the years is that the scales don’t indicate health.” – Ronda Gibson

 Ronda’s 2/3 of the way through her 21-day Transformation and she’s already sad it’s almost over. She’s also noticed changes, and it’s not just on the scale. She’s noticed that there’s a deficit of only a few pounds, but the big change she noticed [And she gave the writer permission to tell this story] is when she was shaving her legs and her calves had changed. “I actually have some muscle definition!”

When asked what she enjoys most about the program, she laughs and said she doesn’t “dread” going to any session. Her two favorites though: Spin and the Boxing Circuit. She said that both leave you with a sweat and reaching for that water bottle, and they’re fun.

“Is it weird that for Mother’s Day I’m hoping for a heavy bag and some gloves?”

 

When we go through transformations, we learn a lot about ourselves. Ronda’s biggest realization so far is that she can’t dive head first into an activity or on a machine and expect that she’s going to perform like a peer or an instructor or “some 20-year-old I saw the week before.”

The 21-day Transformation is almost over, and the time will come to place what you’ve learned and how to apply it to your life after the program.

We’ve got one more check-in with Ronda later on to see how she feels she’s done in the program.

Another great piece of advice from Ronda: “It doesn’t matter if you’re the fastest or the strongest because you don’t have to prove anything to anyone but yourself.”
