Dynamic Duo: Gloria and Pamela
/
Health & Fitness
We enjoyed a chat with two of our longest standing customers whose friendship has become synonymous with the vibrant spirit of our Magna Vitae community. Gloria and Pamela, both met each other during an Aqua class and have been best friends ever since.
Here is what they had to say…
“Oh gosh, it goes back twenty-two years! It started in the Aqua classes and then we decided to try the gym. Gloria went in first, and then I followed her in, and we have not looked back since.”
Gloria and Pamela have made our facilities a second home, turning their commitment to fitness into a shared adventure. Their workouts, a fusion of laughter and perseverance, showcase the power of friendship in staying motivated and healthy. They attend the gym three times a week and use it as a way to keep mobile and keep “things a little bit firmer”.
They admit that they do what they want to do in the gym, go at their own pace, and have a good old natter! They even get inspiration from Facebook, having a look at exercises they could try themselves in the gym to change things up now and again.
“It has to be a routine, otherwise it would be too easy to say I can’t be bothered. But the atmosphere is extremely friendly in the gym. If we see new people we do try and speak to them and make them feel welcome.”
Pamela’s husband, Geoff 81, also attends and swims 51 lengths twice a week and uses the gym once a week!
However, behind the scenes of their energetic endeavours lies a delightful secret – a post-workout ritual that adds a touch of sweetness to their routine. They both, after breaking a sweat, treat themselves to a well-deserved coffee and two squares of rich, dark chocolate.
On a final note, we asked would they recommend our facilities to others:
“Oh yes, but not too many, as we wouldn’t be able to get in!”
Gloria and Pamela’s journey is a testament to the power of friendships and how our Magna Vitae venues are so much more than ‘just a gym’. They are a place where every moment matters.
Live a Great Life!
