Meet Carly & Derek! A little about them in their own words:
C: Hi I’m Carly! Moved from Hong Kong to here in 2016, love pastries & books, and exercising is new. I work in marketing to scale $ impact through ops excellence… and coincidentally our cat is named Wong Choi aka “bring in money” in Cantonese 🤷🏻♀️
D: annnnnnd I’m Derek! I moved to Seattle in 2013, for work as an Industrial Designer. I’m into endurance sports, cooking and building shows on YouTube. Fun fact: I’m featured for a few seconds in Freaks and Geeks season 1, playing my trombone. Sweet 13 cent residual checks for 10 years.
How long have you been a member of GLSC?
We started right before Thanksgiving 2023 cos them yoga pants got tight
How has being a part of the gym benefitted you?
C: Getting physically & mentally stronger. GLSC also makes me feel safe – coaches look out for you to prevent injury, and the community has been kind & inclusive since day 1.
D: I’m probably the fittest I’ve ever been thanks to GLSC. Having more self confidence and fitting better into clothes has been great.
What is your favorite movement or workout?
C: Sunday 10am metcon high class & Rosellini’s right after 🥐☕, and Strength Cycle where you focus on 1 movement for weeks.
D: Murph. Aside from that, long form workouts with lots of rowing, running, or pull-ups.
What is your favorite music or pump up song?
C: Marc Rebillet, Coach Antonio’s playlist, and that sneaky “My Heart Will Go On” at Coach Z’s class
D: I’ve been vibing on Ain’t taking no shhh by Afrika Bambata lately. Haven’t heard it in the gym yet but maybe that will change…
