Members that Inspire Us


Linda Dubois has been a member of Bristol Total Fitness since January 2012. Her favorite exercise is anything that her trainer, Adriana, can throw at her. Linda likes to brag that even with Adriana kicking her butt, she’s still moving and she keeps coming back for more. Linda says, “As you get older, you have to work twice as hard for half the conditioning! But it’s all worth it in the end.” Her philosophy on working out is “Keep at it.” She also thinks the staff at Bristol Total Fitness is wonderful! Thanks, Linda, we think you’re pretty great too!
Jackie Burgess-Conlon joined Swansea Total Fitness in September 2006, Nadine Gennaoui in September 2012, Linda Cuddigan in June 2011, Deb Thompson in October 2012 and Becky Turner in August 2012. Six years ago, in 2012 when Group Power was launched the ladies began taking the class regularly. They even followed the class to SWTF when it was relocated from SKTF. They all agree that the class has kept them motivated to go to the gym regularly. The routine and music change every three months so participants don’t get bored. The instructors are enthusiastic, well trained and motivating. Congratulations Ladies!
Ariana Masi joined Seekonk Total Fitness in August of 2014. She started her fitness journey 7 years ago when she was 140lbs. heavier. Since losing all the weight, Ariana’s goals are to tone up and be stronger than she’s ever been. Her lifestyle change motivates her to come to the gym every day and eat healthy. Seeing progress and the post-workout feeling Ariana gets are what drives her fitness to the next level. She also hopes to inspire people with her story. Besides going to the gym, Ariana enjoys going to concerts, cooking and spending time with her family and friends. Congratulations!
Lori Monteiro joined Dartmouth Total Fitness in September 2015. She attends the gym 5-6 times per week. She enjoys her one-on-one sessions with Personal Trainer, James Simmons, along with Julie F.’s Fever Fit and Spin classes with Julie & Julia. Lori has some major bragging rights too! She started her fitness journey in 2014 at 220lbs and is now over 50lbs lighter due to changes in her diet and active lifestyle! A fitness tip Lori would like to share is, “Try and find constant motivation and surround yourself with people who support your goals.” She has a great attitude and believes “Six feet above ground is a good day.” Congratulations!
