Members that Inspire Us


Wendy Carey has been a member of Bristol Total Fitness since January of 2016. She’s trained with Adriana Ferns since joining. Since January 2015 Wendy has lost a 116 pounds! Her success has been fueled not only by her workouts but also by eating clean and completing Adriana’s Sugar Shakedown.” I have never felt better! I have more energy and stamina. I no longer am a slave to sugar!” One last piece of advice from Wendy: “It’s a marathon, not a sprint. Be kind to yourself, celebrate your successes, learn from your mistakes and always keep moving forward”. Congratulations Wendy!
Michelle Bullock joined Swansea Total Fitness in March 2013. She works out five days a week and her favorite class is ZUMBA! One of her biggest successes is completing the Boston Marathon. Michelle’s best advice is to find a workout that you enjoy and designate it as your personal time. She treats her life as a marathon, looking at each 6 miles as a goal and advises to break it up. Michelle has faced some obstacles on her fitness journey. She was losing her flexibility and her spine and hips were decreasing in bone mass. Due to the gym, her spine density has increased by 1% and her hipbone density has increased 4%. Congratulations Michelle!
Sousan Karwashan has been a member of Seekonk Total Fitness since August 2016. She joined the gym because she wants to get into great shape before her son’s wedding in July. Since starting training with Laurie Roderick, Sue has gotten so much stronger and leaner. She says, what she likes most about SKTF are the friendly employees. Sue is a real estate agent and a mom of four. Her best advice to those new to exercise is to eat healthy and don’t be afraid to take control of your confidence. Sue has gained a lot of confidence through working out. We are so proud of your success in and we love seeing your smiling face‌ in the gym! Congratulations Sousan!
Gary Cottrel has been a member of Dartmouth Total Fitness since July of 2013 and Nadine Aerts since January 2014. They train 5 days a week and back training is their favorite. Being consistent, drinking a ton of water, and paying attention to proper nutrition is the main advice the couple can give to anyone who is working towards their goals. Nadine has been working out since the age of 14 and was a competitive bodybuilder throughout her life! “Being fit is a lifestyle” according to Gary and Nadine and it sure shows! The couple enjoys how friendly and motivating the staff and other members are – “We love it here!” Congratulations Gary and Nadine!
