Betsy – She’s ForeverActive
Betsy – Featured ForeverStrong Client
She’s ForeverActive
ForeverStrong client Betsy has always been active and fit. When she was younger she was very active and strong. Over the years she noticed her strength and endurance slowly slipping away. She became disappointed in her energy levels and physical fitness abilities now, compared to when she was younger.
Betsy’s story is like many of ours, and she realized she could change her path and become strong again. Without ever joining ForeverStrong, Betsy fears she would be still in need of a demanding workout other than just walking and playing volleyball in the summer.
“I enjoy those things but knew that they were not demanding enough.”
Now, my energy stays high all day!
Waking up in the morning and maintaining your energy throughout the day and into the evening is a huge task, one that many struggle with. For Betsy, keeping up her energy in the evening was incredibly discouraging and difficult, especially when there is so much to do!
Betsy felt that her greatest fear about seeking help with her fitness and joining a gym, was investing in it and not actually taking advantage and using the membership. Many people can relate to this. It’s one step to buy a gym membership, it’s another step to attend regularly and put forth effort. Before training at ForeverStrong, Betsy worked out with a trainer but found her self struggling when she was working out on her own. The classes provided at ForeverStrong and the personalized fitness system supervised by the trainers was exactly what she found she needed to be successful!
Better Sleep, more energy, more fun!
Since training ForeverStrong, Betsy is reversing the decline of her strength and feels strong again. Her energy levels are up as well! Betsy is now able to expand her familiar morning routine and actually gains energy from it! She now completes more of her to do list in the evening and sleeps better at night. Even better, shopping at Costco is no longer a difficult task as she can easily lift and carry the bulky items!
Even her family noticed this summer, how strong she is getting out of the pool. She has gained the upper body strength to pull herself out of the deep end onto the pool deck…. effortlessly.
Consistency is everything!
Betsy’s favorite part of the journey has been trying something new and sticking to it. With the sessions offered at ForeverStrong, Betsy found that the best way to keep up an effective and consistent workout schedule was to commit to two sessions a week. “It has become a part of my routine which is great!”Everyone has to start somewhere, nobody is alike!
“I have told several friends about ForeverStrong. Anyone can do this. I was not superfit when I joined, but I am now.”
Congratulations, Besty! You are ForeverStrong & ForeverActive! We know how tough it can be stick to a workout and we are so glad to be able to provide you with the workout program you need to succeed!

Frank Duffy
ForeverActive: Frank Duffy, Client of the Month, 67 Years Old. Highland, Maryland.
You’d have to look long and hard to find a better definition for ‘active lifestyle’ than Frank Duffy.
As military veteran, a former green beret army ranger and and green beret combat diver, Frank, lives life with vigor. He started working out when he joined the Army in 1969 and never stopped.
With 11 years of Aikido, a year of Israeli Krav Maga and his current Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practice he is no stranger to physical culture.
Frank is a also disciplined eater, an avid runner and is a role model for others striving to pursue better health and body.
With such an active lifestyle, we wanted to know why Frank sought out ForeverStrong to help him. We are proud to share this interview with our ForeverActive client of the month.
Frank wanted better results than he was getting on his own.
Like all of us, despite his passion for exercise, some things became more difficult for Frank over the years.
Franks Goals:
“The aging process hasn’t taken a huge toll on me. That said, there are some aging problems that I experience; for example, losing flexibility, minor joint pain and arthritis in my back.”
Frank was especially frustrated with a pattern of weight loss and weight gain and he wanted to find an exercise routine that he really enjoyed doing that would not exacerbate the aches and pains he was dealing with.
We remember Frank describing his goal to us as: “Waist Loss, not Weight Loss!”
Although he was dieting, jogging and lifting weights on his own he didn’t see the improvement in his physique that he was working so hard for. He also wanted more strength for his jiu-jitsu practice and more defined muscles.
Kettlebells? I’m not sure about that….
I overhead some of my friends talking about how kettlebell training could benefit jiujitsu, including our black belt instructor, Mike Johnson, who is a certified kettlebell instructor.”
Although he didn’t know much about kettlebell training and was skeptical at first, he had confidence in his instructors recommendation and decided to give it a try.
Franks Results
“{I like the} the muscle that I’ve developed in my shoulders, arms, upper chest and legs.”
“My clothes are fitting better and my martial arts are improving because of the training!”
He loves the structure AND the people
“I’ve trained for a long time in a variety of different ways, and what I like best about ForeverStrong is the structure, I like the small classes and I like the trainers. They are all well trained and highly skilled people, and I appreciate that very much.”
“It has given me an exercise routine that is fun, has variety, and is challenging. My favorite part is being in class with other people who also enjoy the workouts…and the music in the background”
Franks Advice:
“If I had never joined ForeverStrong I would still be doing my tried and true exercise—jogging and lifting weights. Not seeing much improvement in my physique because of all the jogging and weight lifting. So my advice to you is, start training ForeverStong sooner.”

Lead By Example
Parents naturally want to set a good example for their kids, but no one said it’s easy. Jess, 26 and a mother of two came to us with a strong desire to be a healthy role model for her family.
When Jess started, she told us that when entering adulthood, finding time for herself and the time to be active was the most difficult thing. She said, “I find that as a parent I [used to] put a lot of emphasis on my kids being active and playing sports that I [wasn’t] leading by example.”
Now, Jess trains ForeverStrong three times a week and has made incredible progress in regaining control of her life. She’s more active, makes better eating habits and has much more energy (we absolutely adore Jess’ witty attitude and love being around her)!
Jess’ Challenges
When it comes to eating with her children, Jess said, “I find that I frequently will sneak a bite of whatever they are eating even if I have made something more healthy for myself or even if I’m not hungry.” Ordering out and fast food are also temptations that Jess tries to avoid.
Jess’ Results
Jess used to drink four to six sodas a day! But with consistent strength training and food journaling, Jess has cut back to ONE soda a day if none. Jess’ healthier alternative is an easy DIY fruit flavored water — all she does is put frozen fruit in her water. Simple and positive changes like these are what leads Jess on her personal journey to a healthier lifestyle.
After just SIX months, Jess is down a total of 23 pounds, has gone down two dress sizes and is completely off her daily blood pressure regime. Check out these amazing transformation photos of Jess:
Jess’ Words
“I may whine a little when I’m [training], but the feeling after I’ve finished a session makes it all worth it. ForeverStrong has firstly helped me take control back of my health, both physically and mentally. Giving up has never seemed like an option with the supportive staff behind me each day. Though they are not in my home while I’m eating (and ordering food) they are in my head.”
“I am setting goals and reaching them. [I’m] setting a good example for my kids instead of just making them do it. I’m more active, I have more energy and I don’t get tired as easily. [ForeverStrong] has given me my life back.”
Jess’ Advice
“It’s not going to be easy, but nothing in life is and the best things in life are the things you work the hardest for.”
Congratulations, Jessica! You are ForeverStrong! Your enthusiasm and energy after your workouts are things we look forward to every single week. We are so proud that you are taking control of your life and are consistently making positive changes. You are beautiful and don’t you ever forget that!
