Dear Friends and Members,
At PrimeTime Fitness, we do our best to foster a complete state of health for each of our members. From exercise in private or small-group workouts, to meditation through yoga, to meeting your friends at the gym to go for a run, workout or have a cup of coffee, we think the World Health Organization would agree that PrimeTime isn’t just part of your quest for the absence of “disease or infirmity” but so much more. If you are reading this, we thank you for choosing to make PrimeTime your source of Fitness for life! |

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT(S) –
Carrie Cooney and Patrick Riddle
(Mr. and Mrs. Riddle –
October 3, 2015)
Many of you have probably never seen Patrick and Carrie in the gym – they enjoy the quiet and privacy of the gym during the slow mid-afternoon hours. However, Patrick’s been quite a regular for over two years, and his beautiful bride (as of October 3!) Carrie tagged along as an occasional guest until joining for good in March of this year.
Growing up, Carrie was always active in sports but never really enjoyed being in the gym. Now that her career as a nurse has kept her from being as active as she was in her younger years, Carrie realizes the importance of making time to exercise. Using a reward system seems to help motivate Carrie – once she achieves her goal of getting to the gym consistently, she allows herself to splurge with a pre-determined indulgence (currently her sights are set on the white pullover in the PrimeTime ProShop!).
Patrick, on the other hand, is more intrinsically motivated. He enjoys the challenge of his weight workouts (favorite exercise? “Dips!” he says), and we’ve also known him to enjoy his yoga every now and then. He likes to commit to a small goal, and once he hits that goal consistently, raises the bar for a higher goal.
Usually you’ll find Patrick and Carrie working out together – they agree that the thing they enjoy most about working out at PrimeTime is the small size. Patrick likes that it’s not one of those “big” gyms, and that to him, it’s friendly and welcoming. Carrie also enjoys the small size, and that people go to actually workout! Unlike at other gyms, Carrie feels comfortable and not self-conscious. There’s no judgment at PrimeTime!
Patrick enjoys beach volleyball and skateboarding around the island, but Carrie is usually recovering from her night shift on the sofa! They do encourage each other to get to the gym together, even though once they get there, Patrick heads to the weight room and Carrie hits the treadmill. Now that Carrie’s schedule will be changing with a new job, she’s hoping to try many of the great Group X workouts that PrimeTime has to offer.
As happy as Patrick and Carrie are to be a part of PrimeTime, we couldn’t be happier to have them as members. We look forward to seeing the new Mr. and Mrs. Riddle more often!

| IF YOU ARE GETTING OLDER, YOU NEED TO READ THIS!
 You’ve probably heard the saying “If you don’t use it you lose it.” But if you’re looking to maintain your fitness and stay strong well into your 50’s and beyond, you need to do more than use it! As author Joe Friel says, we have to “use it or lose it with one twist. Don’t just use it – push it.” The key, he states, is intensity. Once again, quality trumps quantity!
Click here to read more about how to continue to crush well into your 80’s. . . and prove that age is irrelevant when it comes to fitness!
