If you have ever attended a 5am Octane class, you've most likely had the pleasure of training with Amy. She is so consistent with the training program and following the nutrition habits that she's learned, and the outcome speaks for itself. At 50 years old, she is stronger, more agile, and in better cardiovascular shape than many 20 year olds I know! She's also been known to text other Octane members to make sure they're awake and heading to class... she keeps us all accountable and is supportive and encouraging of everyone. She has even saved class when my alarm didn't go off (whoops), by opening the gym and leading the workout! Thanks for all that you do, Amy!
I am 50 years old and employed by the Federal Courts. I have been a member at Octane for about 3 1/2 years. I have belonged to a gym since I was 20 years old, always seeking out group exercise to keep me motivated.
When I joined Octane, I was looking for something close to my house, as I was tired of packing a workout bag every day. What I found was more than group exercise; it was a group of people who care for and support each other. So much so, that Shannon sometimes has a hard time explaining the workouts over our “supporting” each other.
Our classes are more like “group” personal training sessions. Shannon is always instructing, encouraging and aware of our every move. (Especially when we try to cheat on burpees.) She is willing to discuss any nutrition or exercise question we have, day or night. She is knowledgeable but not judgmental. She treats us better than family.
Even coming from a steady workout regime, I feel I am stronger than when I began with Octane. The entire program is just different from anything I’ve ever tried.
If you haven’t tried Octane, you are missing something special. - Amy
