Tanya Torres radiates so many qualities we are proud to have in a TFL member… Tanya is a team player, a motivator, a listener and an all around badass.  If you have had the opportunity to train next to Tanya, then you definitely know what we’re talking about.

Tanya exudes positivity and is never in a workout just for herself.  If you’re lacking motivation or feeling like you can’t finish a round, she’s the one you want next to you with the amazing ability to make you feel like you’re in this together.  Quitting isn’t an option for Tanya, and she makes others believe that too.

Tanya is almost as dedicated to her training as she is to the Oakland Raiders (that’s huge), and she rarely misses a session.  She has been working towards specific strength goals since adding Hybrid to her program, and recently hit a huge PR on the Barbell Front Squat of 135lbs!  Even though it’s often on her way to or from work, Tanya remains consistent and always brings the same level of energy and passion even on her longest days.

We would like to congratulate Tanya on all of her accomplishments and never-ending hustle over the course of her time within our community; and thank her for bringing such a spark to each one of her sessions.

KATIE MORIN

MEMBER SINCE APRIL 2012

Katie Morin has been a member of Train for Life for over 5 years and with her long time commitment and dedication to her training has completed over 750 workouts with us!  Katie is a model member who always strives to do her best and can always be called upon to demonstrate any exercise with perfect technique.

Katie is always a friendly face in every class she attends welcoming friends and new members alike.  She consistently looks for improvement in all of her movements and is never too proud to ask for help when learning a new skill.  With her strength training experience, she never hesitates to lend a hand to a member or an encouraging comment. 

Katie is proof that hard work and commitment to our system pays off, as she is usually toward the top of the leader board during our challenges, often times putting up comparable numbers to women half her age.   We are humbled to have Katie continue to put her trust in us, and hope to continue to motivate and guide her for many more years to come.  CONGRATS KATIE!

I love walking into class and seeing Katie.  She always has a smile on her face.  She is consistent, and never complains so you couldn’t ask for a better training partner.

JILL LUEB

MEMBER SINCE NOVEMBER 2013

Jill joined our community three years ago this month, and has been a dedicated member ever since.  She came to us with a few limitations from previous injuries, and had a preconceived notion that she may never fully squat or do some of our foundational movements again.  Well, we’re thrilled to say Jill has excelled in movements many wouldn’t have expected her to, and none of this would have been possible without consistency and hard work.

Jill is constantly supporting those around her, especially via social media.  She’s an asset to her teams in any challenge, and is always available for recipe sharing, motivation or Sunday activities; which often include yoga sessions or a hiking adventure.

Jill is a current member of our Barbell Club and recently hit a personal record on her front squat.  She is always eager to learn, respects each exercise and puts full trust in her coaches and the program making her a joy to have in any session.   

Congratulations, Jill!  We are so proud of all you’ve accomplished, and can’t wait to see what this year has in store for you.  Happy 3rd TFL Anniversary!

KRISTIN QUITERIO

Member since October 2012

Deciding our next MOM wasn’t a tough decision.  Immediately following the release of last months we got a message raving about why Kristin is a perfect choice from a fellow member…


“My husband was doing a wall sit and Kristin came in and sat right next to him; you should have seen his smile.  Kristin doesn't just make us laugh, she pushes us.  She’s the best!”
– Toni

Kristin is an excellent student of strength.  She is always eager to learn, respects each exercise and dedicates herself to accomplishing different movements which makes her a joy to coach.  Kristin is consistently working with the coaches to set new goals to achieve her personal best in various exercises.  She is currently the only member to pass BOTH the USB Clean & Press Test, and the Kettlebell Snatch Test – none of which could be achieved without consistency and hard work.

Kristin has put her trust in us since the beginning, and we are so grateful to have had her smile, sarcasm and strength in the facility over the years.  Her coaches look forward to many more sessions with Kristin, who recently hit a personal record with a 100# Strict Overhead Press.

Great work Kristin!  We are so proud of all you’ve accomplished, and can’t wait to see what this year has in store for you.  Happy 4th TFL Anniversary! :)
