Hank is 11, he's been training with us since January, and he's one of the hardest workers in the building. After a stroke during brain surgery left him with weakness on his right side, his doctors recommended personal training to build strength and keep surgery off the table. Sarah, Steve, and Grant got to work, and at his last round of appointments every one of his providers agreed that surgery isn't necessary.
Since January he's gained flexibility, balance, and real strength on his right side, and walking has gotten easier because of it. He pays attention to protein at dinner now (Mr. Steve's influence), leaves room for ice cream, and has grown more confident in himself than anything else.
Favorite movement: Skier
Least favorite: Sleds
Hype song: Supersonic by Oasis
Outside the gym: Swimming, sports card shows, and golf
When he grows up: He wants to be a priest
We built a workout in his honor called The Hank, featuring sled pushes and ski erg. Naturally, we included his least favorite.
Hank, we are so glad you're here. 🔥
