June Member of the Month

Joni Ramsey

We are very late for June's Member of the Month blog post, but that doesn't made Joni's accomplishments any less important! Joni joined us in March of this year and has shown so much improvement just over the few fast months she has been with us. Congrats, Joni!

Tell us about yourself (family, schooling, job, sports, military, interests, etc.)

I work for CESA5 as a speech therapist for preschoolers in the Portage school district. My husband and I live in Fall River with our cat, Oliver. I enjoy traveling, cooking, and am working on learning to enjoy running.

I started fundamentals in March 2016. 

What is your favorite movement and/or benchmark workout?
Probably snatches and dead lifts, because I can see progress with them.

Wall balls and single/double unders. 

What has been your biggest improvement?
Single unders; I am finally starting to be able to do them!

Someday I really want to do a pull-up!

If you could design a workout, what would it be? 
Anything that doesn't include wall balls or thrusters!

Whatever is clean that day.

Pretty much every day

You never regret going!
