JUNE MEMBER OF THE MONTH: SAMANTHA BISHOP

This is who you want as your partner in a HIIT Fixx.

Her energy is contagious. She always gives 110%. Plus, she’ll celebrate right along with you when you hit your goal.

She always has a smile on her face when she walks in, then she puts on her “hard work” face when it’s time to put in the work, and ends class with the biggest cheer of all. There is never a sprint that she doesn’t give it her all. There is never a rep where she drops. She’ll try anything that the crew throws her way – no matter HOW ridiculous it may look at first glance. She’s always up for the challenge, and we LOVE that about her.

Our June member of the month is Samantha Bishop! She’s been crushing this month with a smile on her face and that energy that helps push the entire room to be just a little bit better than they were before.

How did you first hear about Sweat Fixx?

Someone dropped a free class pass in my mailbox at work, and my motto is  “If its free, its for me!”

What keeps you coming back?

The way I feel after any class.

Regardless of the day I’ve had or if my mood is off, I always finish class feeling so accomplished and determined to be better. That feeling resonates until the next time I come to SweatFixx.

When you aren’t crushing it on the rower, where can we find you?

You’ll always be able to catch me at Lululemon at Lynnfield Market Street! I work there full time and run the Thirsty Thursday events on the Lynnfield Market Street Green during the summer. Or, you can also catch me at the Capital One Cafe studying for my nursing boards.

You bring such good vibes to the studio, have you always been known as the “super positive” person?

Honestly, I have not.

Recently, I have been making a huge effort to maintain a positive attitude towards myself. I think by putting time in for #1 allows me to support and care for others better.

What’s your favorite guilty pleasure? Sushi? Ice Cream? Margaritas? 

Definitely chips,  guac & sangria!

Go to local bar or restaurant?

What’s one thing we would’ve never guessed about you?

Right now, what’s your favorite class to take, and why? 

BattleFixx! It was the first class I originally signed up for – I had no idea of what I was getting myself into, but I loved it! With my attention span, I like having the opportunity to jump from one exercise to the next quickly… it keeps me engaged. Plus, I have a love-hate relationship with the rowers, so the harder I push myself, the less time I have to stay on them!

What would be your advice for someone who is walking through the SweatFixx door for the first time? 

Jump in! Elise and her kickass crew will welcome you and make you feel like family from the very beginning. The energy, positivity, and encouragement is infectious, and you take that feeling with you from the studio and roll with it for the rest of the day. Looks good, feels good!
