Congrats to Rico Aguayo the January Member of the Month!
We all know that the key to progress is consistent hard work over time. Rico perfectly exemplifies this model of dedication. He can be seen at the gym nearly every single day working to improve and advance himself closer to his goals. Whether it be in a Lean, Fit, and Functional class, a Strongman class, some kickboxing, a JD’s Fit class, or just an individual workout, Rico attacks his training with a positive “can do” attitude that becomes contagious to everyone he trains around. He can always be seen and heard helping other members push themselves during grueling workouts.
In the past year with strict focus on exercise and nutrition, Rico has lost nearly 40lbs and achieved his best body composition of his adult life. Now he is looking to add even a little more muscle to his frame. In addition to his fat loss, he has also significantly increased his strength in a variety of lifts, including a recent 295lb deadlift PR (double bodyweight pull). Rico’s overall fitness level has increased dramatically and he is able to tackle even the most difficult training sessions and be right back in the gym the next day.
When you couple Rico’s dedication and work ethic with his coachable, supportive demeanor, you get a gym member that everyone can aspire to be like. Rico is a great example of what a person can achieve when they decide to make a change and put in the hard work.
Rico would also like to personally thank the Scott brothers (Derik, Shaun, and Zeke). He says, “I would not have met my goals without their help and support.”
Well done, Rico and congratulations.
