We have 2 women, both named Melissa, who are training with us in the same small group. Melissa L worked with us earlier in the year for an 8-week program and is currently working on a 6-week program. Her goal was to be able to perform 1 body weight pull-up, and we checked this goal off on our goal board on Tuesday! Melissa has not only increased her muscle mass, but she is getting incredibly strong without bulking up. When we started working together, she had never even seen a kettlebell. However, we've progressed from 9kg kettlebells to swings with the 16kg, 20kg, and 24kg! She was also able to snatch the 16kg! It's incredible to see what dedication and hard work can bring. We've also been doing more body weight work, and Melissa can successfully complete a TRX pistol!! Great job, Melissa!!
Melissa J has also made incredible progress. She started with us and is finishing up her first 6-week program with Melissa L. Melissa J had very little strength training experience. Over the past few weeks, she has learned how to squat with a barbell! She went from being able to squat with an 18lb body bar to squatting with 95 pounds on the bar with excellent form! She has also learned how to snatch a 9kg kettlebell. Just last night we did swing ladders, and she also was able to swing the 16kg, 20kg, and 24kg!
These ladies are getting strong and getting incredible results here at the Underground. They work hard each and every session and hard work definitely pays off!!
We are so proud of all that they have accomplished!!
