From Setback to Strength: Celebrating Erin- January’s Member of the Month
At Hustle One Fitness, we take pride in celebrating the dedication and achievements of our members. For January, we’re thrilled to spotlight Erin A. as our Member of the Month!
One of the original members of Hustle One, Erin’s journey with us is a testament to resilience, community, and the power of prioritizing self-care.
From Bedford to Charleston
Originally from Bedford, Pennsylvania, Erin joined Hustle One Fitness in September 2019. Since then, she has become an integral part of our fitness family, bringing determination and positivity to every workout.
Why Erin Loves to Work Out
For Erin, working out is more than just a physical activity; it’s a mental reset. “I love working out because it’s the one hour per day that I can shut my brain off from the outside world,” she says. “For one hour, the stress disappears. I’m not worried about work or checking my phone. Just some good music, sweat, and fist bumps.”
Life Outside the Gym
When Erin isn’t crushing it at Hustle One, she enjoys her downtime as an introvert by relaxing at home. But she’s also a fan of a good escape room adventure. “Invite me on your next escape room adventure! You won’t regret it,” she shares enthusiastically.
Finding the Right Fit
Erin knew Hustle One Fitness was the perfect match for her thanks to the genuine care and accountability from our team. “I knew Hustle One was the right fit for me when James would constantly text me asking if I was going to class,” she recalls. “I knew that Hustle One cared about its members. And not just about their fitness but their general well-being.”
Overcoming Challenges
In 2018, Erin faced a major setback when she tore her shoulder labrum, requiring surgery to insert five anchors. Post-surgery, she couldn’t lift her arm above her head or hold a gallon of milk. “I thought I’d never be able to return to doing what I love in the gym,” Erin admits. But with unwavering support from her gym community, she made an inspiring comeback. “I’m so thankful my gym community never let me give up.”
Favorite Things
- Favorite Cheat Meal: Mexican food, complete with chips, salsa, guacamole, and an ice-cold spicy margarita.
- Favorite Movement: Any kind of clean complex.
Words of Wisdom
To those just starting their fitness journey at Hustle One, Erin offers this advice: “It can be very daunting starting a new hobby or trying out a new gym, but just stick with it. I promise you will find that Hustle One is one big family.”
