I started my fitness journey about 5 years ago after several personal struggles. Headed for a career in teaching I decided to make my passion also my career.




I graduated from Heritage College, I have worked for Anytime Fitness and 50+ Fitness of which my husband and I now own.



My husband and my children are my inspiration. to stay healthy. What is your motivation?

I went to school at Heritage College in Wichita(its a trade school). While at Heritage I did my internship for a local gym here in Wichita called 50+ Fitness. After completing my internship I was hired on at Anytime Fitness out of Wichita,KS and Park City, KS. At Anytime Fitness I was a "jack of all trades" you could say. Training is my passion but I also did sales and office work etc. In 2011 I left Anytime Fitness and went back to work for 50+ Fitness. In June the owners decided to sell, which brings me to today. In August Lance and I bought 50+ Fitness. It is a gym specifically for the 50+, our motto is "fitness in the prime of your life" We have 2 other great people working for us and we have great, loyal members. We are located at 550 N. Webb Rd. We also run my personal training business out of that location Leslie Fitness LLC.
I am not here to make people look like super models(unless you want to look like a super model we can sure do that), my goal is to motivate and help you reach your fitness goals and join you on your fitness journey!

None of this would be possible without the love and support from wonderful husband, our 5 kids, and so many family and friends. I'm so very blessed by both my husbands family and my own. Hopefully this is just one way I can pay it forward!

Change

For a good part of the day I hear people say " Im not seeing results, my body is not changing the way I want it to..." Most people dont see changes due to their diet or lack of change from the exercise routine. First of all diet is key, I would say even more so than exercise although you need both! You can not continue eating fast food, foods high in sugar, etc and expect results. Many of you may have heard the saying "abs are made in the kitchen" I strongly agree. Take out the soda, fatty foods, sugar, sweets and replace with water, veggies, fruit etc and watch what happens. Second get off the treadmill and do something different! Try a lifting session, try some different cardio equipment. Not sure where to start? Ask people at your local gym that is what they are there for. Hire a trainer, it is their job to help mix things up, push you and motivate you. The internet and book stores are filled with books and magazines to help you get started. Challenge your body, push yourself a little more and you will start to see changes. Remember change does not happen over time. Be patient, believe in yourself and never be afraid to ask for help!
