Our 16 in 30 is no easy feat, and that's why we decided to highlight our new members who took on this challenge! Read on to learn more about Janine, Isabel, Layota, and Olivia, and what keeps them coming back for more!

Meet Janine:

How did you first hear about REV?

My Friend Latonya.

Describe Your First REV Experience:

It's hard to put into words, but I can say that it was great experience, my first time coming to REV.  The staff  was friendly and willing to help, so even though I was a little nervous, that made me feel like I was part of the REV family all along.

What causes you to keep coming back to REV?

I just love the way I feel when am done, like I accomplished something just for me. It makes me proud because I work so hard in class.

What's your go to Class?

The 6am. I love the way Sean teaches he is great.

Do you have a favorite Bike or Spot in Class?

20!

What's your go-to pre or post workout snack?

Coffee, I need it! I also do a protein shake before class.

What's your favorite quote to keep yourself motivated?

“Think about what you can do right now, not what you wish you had done before.”

Meet Isabel:

How did you first hear about REV?

I first heard about REV from a friend at work who said it was the best workout she had ever done.

Describe Your First REV Experience:

My first REV experience was not one to forget. Coming from a competitive weight lifting background, spin was definitely really new to me but everyone at Rev was great and made me feel welcome!

What causes you to keep coming back to REV?

I now go to REV with one of my best friends and we both have unlimited memberships. We get to work out together almost every day.

What's your go to Class?

My go to class is either the 6am or 6pm, I find it’s a good way to start or end my day.

Do you have a favorite Bike or Spot in Class?

I don't have a favorite bike particularly, but am a pretty consistent second row biker.

What's your go-to pre or post workout snack?

Brunch after a Sunday 10am class always hits the spot (:

What's your favorite quote to keep yourself motivated?

The coaches at REV do such a great job of keeping me motivated. Every day there is some new saying or quote they say during class that keeps me coming back for more.

Meet Latoya:

How did you first hear about REV?

I found REV while attending a meeting at an establishment located in McHenry Row. I had been a avid indoor cycler for years and I stopped when I began running, but my love for spin was always there. Finding REV, not too far from home was a joy to my heart.

Describe Your First REV Experience:

My first experience with REV was when I took my first class with Sean. I was first very impressed with the front desk, the ambiance was warm and welcoming, and the class was more than I ever expected in so many ways. Although Sean’s class was not easy, the music was amazing, I had a lot of fun, he was very encouraging and welcomed me as if I was not a new student.

What causes you to keep coming back to REV?

There are a number of things that keep me coming back! For one, it’s like a family there. REV's studio is clean, everyone is friendly, it’s fun, the motivation from the instructors is unmatched, and I am also achieving great health and body results as well. I love it there.

What's your go to Class?

My “go to class” is REV45, with Sean or Lamar. These guys are my favorites! Although all the instructors are incredible, Sean and Lamar are the first two instructors I encountered in the beginning and their different styles of teaching give me the variation that I need to reach my goals.

Do you have a favorite Bike or Spot in Class?

I do actually, I’m typically in the back row on bike 21.

What's your go-to pre or post workout snack?

I am still trying to figure out my post workout  snack, however, I do have a pre workout drink - Celsius. I never workout without it.

What's your favorite quote to keep yourself motivated?

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”.

Meet Olivia:

How did you first hear about REV?

I moved down to Baltimore about two years ago, and have always been interested in REV Cycle. A friend had invited me to go to a class back in June, so I decided to go for it. I’ve been addicted ever since!

Describe Your First REV Experience:

My first REV class was REVBlast with Barb, so if that wasn’t challenging enough - imagine doing it without ever knowing how to ride a bike (shocking, I know).

What causes you to keep coming back to REV?

The REV community keeps me coming back for more because I love how each class starts out with saying hi to your neighbor. It’s kind of like saying, “We’re about to get our ass kicked the next 45 minutes, but we’re in this together”. The energy  in that room is so high during class- and each person truly feeds off each other. The instructors are so fun, motivating, and supportive; they know each member by first name, and see their highest potential.

What's your go to Class?

I love alllll of the classes, but if I had to narrow it down to two - it would have to be either RevBlast with Kelly or REV45 with Lamar.

Do you have a favorite Bike or Spot in Class?

You can find me in either Bike 1 or 5 during any class 🙂

What's your go-to pre or post workout snack?

Before an early morning class, I keep it simple with just some pre-workout or coffee. After class, I make a huge stack of pancakes with allll the toppings - it’s all I have on my mind during those last two songs!

What's your favorite quote to keep yourself motivated?

A few years ago, my grandfather mailed me a card with just the sentence, “Good things come to those who work hard”. It has stuck with me ever since, and gotten me through any challenge 🙂

We are so proud of all of our new members, but especially the ones that are able to complete such a tough challenge in their first month! Welcome to the family ladies!
