If you’re like us, you’ve been glued to the TV and probably staying up too late this week watching Olympic events and rooting for your favorite world class athletes! In honor of the amazing triumphs at the 2016 Rio Olympics, here’s a look back at just a few of our favorite AFS triumphs from this year 🙂

“I started with AFS on January 1, 2016. I’ve always been active having grown up participating in all kinds of sports. But the last two years my work life balance became unhealthy. I was working 60 or more hours a week and had become completely sedentary. One morning I looked in the mirror and said to myself, “Who is this person?” I literally didn’t recognize myself my body had changed so much. After sharing this story with a friend of mine and commenting on how great she was looking, she told me about AFS and how much success she’d had there. After looking into other setups (classes, personal training, Crossfits, etc.) I decided AFS had the right balance between personal goals, accountability, and price. It was the best decision I could have made!”

“I knew I had to get in shape. I would lose a little, then gain a little. I would lose, and then plateau. Last summer, I was volunteering at a summer camp for children with solid organ transplants. Seeing these kids who have gone through enormous medical hardships, running, rock-wall climbing, and ziplining, really opened my eyes. I realized that there were no excuses for me. Their tenacity was inspiring, and provided me with great motivation.”

“I was tired of being disappointed at myself for never achieving my weight loss and strength goals. Every year I would tell myself I’d be different, and then I’d beat myself up for never doing it or not following through on a commitment. I felt like I was compartmentalizing my life and that the “next chapter” wouldn’t start until I lost weight. I had a lot of fun with friends and loved to be an active traveler but I hated seeing myself in pictures and felt like I had to hide in my clothes all the time. I wasn’t happy and I knew I had to do something solely for me, so I finally joined.”
