Members that Inspire Us


Nick Medeiros has been a member of Bristol Total Fitness since 2015. He enjoys all aspects of the gym, but you can usually find him lifting. When asked if he had any success stories, Nick shared with us that he has lost a total of 30 pounds! Congratulations! This just goes to show that when you really put the time in, great results will follow. Nick says that a big part of having success is eating right and training right, you really can’t have one without the other if you’re really trying to make a difference. A personal quote about his fitness journey, “It’s gains o’clock.” We would like to congratulate Nick again and wish you nothing but continued success!
Tim Irish has been a member of Swansea Total Fitness since 2013. He takes pride in being the “unpaid intern” who replaces the toilet paper when needed. Tim is an early exerciser, coming in by 6 each morning to get his workout in. Being a teacher at Case Jr High means he starts his day with a solid workout. Tim enjoys the classic rock music in the morning for his flexibility training. He says, “as you get older stretching and flexibility becomes more important.” Tim is dedicated to his stretching and flexibility, keeping in mind Nike’s motto “Just Do it.” He says, Manager Libby is the absolute best in the morning, which we agree! Keep it up, Tim!

Alyson Beatty has been a Seekonk member since 2017. She has always been active, first with dancing, swimming, running, and now weightlifting along with cross fit training. The mind-body connection is what motivates Alyson to come to the gym. Remaining active and functional also helps out with running around after two little boys and pretty soon another. Outside the gym, she enjoys going to the beach, traveling and just basically spending time with her family. After having the baby, Alyson wants to focus on self-care and return to the gym as soon as possible. Congratulations!

Claudia Jacobsen has been a member of Dartmouth Total Fitness since 2015. She attends the gym 5 days per week, participating in 10-13 group classes! Claudia has achieved many health benefits due to her commitment to fitness such as weight loss and seen improvements in muscle tone, stamina, balance and bone density. Some advice she would like to share is “Find an exercise program or class you enjoy and stick with it!” Claudia would also like to note that “All the instructors, trainers, and staff are friendly, approachable and extremely helpful and genuinely care about you!” Thank you, Claudia. We are lucky to have you as a member!
