Coach Raphael
Exna , 60s , BusinessWoman
In her early 50s, Exna took up personal training, seeking
change and relief from the pressures of running her own business. She worked
with a few coaches before finally starting her program with coach Raph
alongside her good friend Susan.
The Turning Point: Finding the Right Fit
Though she had been exercising in group classes for years, the real transformation came after starting personal training. Slowly but surely, ExNa began to see changes in her physique—subtle at first, then undeniable. Compliments from colleagues and friends started rolling in. People noticed how much younger she looked, how strong she had become.
But finding the right trainer made all the difference. After trying out several, ExNa finally found a good fit with Coach Raph at ILift. With the tailored approach, her knee pain disappeared, and her strength soared. What started as a fitness routine evolved into a powerful, life-changing journey.
More Than Just Fitness: A Place to Recenter
For ExNa, coming to ILift isn’t just about the physical benefits—it’s also her way to de-stress from the demands of running a business. Living alone and managing her company’s daily operations can be draining, but training here provides a much-needed sanctuary.
“Coming to ILift makes me feel a sense of happiness. Sometimes, the stress of work really gets to me, and having a place to unwind and a coach who understands me takes the pressure off.”
ILift has become more than just a gym. It’s a space where ExNa can be herself, where she can focus on her own growth, both mentally and physically. She also enjoys the camaraderie she has with her friend Susan through these workouts.
