Tommie Zuniga
Please help me celebrate Tommie Zuniga’s success! We’ve been working together for two months, and she has made fantastic progress. Check out her story!
At 64 years old, Tommie suffered a few falls, which caused her to have been diagnosed with needing a total right knee replacement. She also came to us with a diagnosis of severe arthritis in both knees and a person with type 2 diabetes on medication and Insulin. She told her doctor that she had no plans on having surgery.
When Tommie started training with us, her primary need was to get into an exercise regimen for balance. Two years earlier, her Dr said, no kneeling, squatting, lunges, climbing steps, ladders, stairs of any type, running or jogging. I was having trouble climbing stairs both up and down.
“I was so fearful after that diagnosis, and then in September, I stumbled and fell in my office. This recent fall was the last straw for her, and she enrolled in YPB’s Longevity and Strength small group training program. By week three, my husband noticed I was moving around a little easier when climbing steps or getting up from a sitting position. In a few more weeks, I stepped up on a small concrete bench, able to balance myself without even thinking or worrying whether I could or not.”
“The programming regimen at YPB is the best. Perfect for anyone my age. I will be snowmobiling in Aspen this December. I am super excited and can’t wait!” ~ Tommie Zuniga

I began going to Lisa with YPB training Studio a year ago, struggling with a hip injury. I’ve gotten so much stronger physically and can see an overall improvement in my posture. Desiring also to lose 15 lbs that same year; however, I only lost 3. I mentioned this to Lisa and asked if we could re-evaluate my goals. She had just returned from the World Fitness Convention in California, and offered me a new, 7 day Detox Plan to jumpstart my weight loss goal.
The week of detox was rough but I told myself I could do anything for one week! I’m glad I stuck it out because I lost 3 more pounds. I’m now on the next phase called “Ignite” which will be 7 more weeks. At first glance, I was discouraged by the lack of bread and sugar I was so accustomed to consuming. After my breakfast today, that included eggs, oatmeal, and a few craisins, I got on my bike and was surprised at how much energy I had! I now see that adding back a few complex carbohydrates in this next “phase” is going to work. I’m motivated to stay the course.

Over a year ago we made changes to increase our Posture Class to 2 times a week plus a pool class (rain or shine, cold or hot)!!!! Wow what an improvement it has made in the lives of our residents and their physical being. Two weeks ago we had a “Posture Party” to recognize and celebrate all of the accomplishments our residents have reached! Our trainer, Lisa Wright has been persistent and consistent with our community and believes strongly in our residents well-being and abilities! I am so thrilled and inspired by our Residents dedication and new found strength!

Before joining our studio, Miguel had a 44″ waist and was wearing XXXLarge size shirts. After hard work and dedication, he now has a 36″ waist and is wearing Large size shirts. He told us “I couldn’t have done it without you and everyone at YPB. I’m not done yet, my goal is a 30″ waist and a six pack…may take some time but it’s worth it.”
