Congratulations to DeWayne Watson the member of the month for March!
People all over the country often refer to JD’s Gym as the strongest gym in Saint Louis. Dewayne Watson definitely adds legitimacy to this statement. Since he began seriously lifting last May, he has added over a hundred pounds to both his bench press (315) and his squat (405). In addition to his exceptional strength gains, he has been working hard to make positive changes in his diet and lifestyle. Dewayne has lost 30lbs, lowered both his blood pressure and cholesterol, and just increased his overall sense of well-being. He says, “I just feel better overall, physically and mentally. Lifting is such a great outlet and stress-release. Plus, everyone at the gym is so helpful and friendly.” Dewayne plans to continue progressing into 2017 and is ready to take on another challenge. This summer he plans to train for and enter the JD’s Gym Summer Strongman Competition which will be his first strongman contest. Given the discipline and work ethic he has displayed so far, he should be ready to do very well in this summer’s comp.
