How did you get started at Blue Crab Fitness?
I was Googled a gym near me because I was a long time without exercising and it was driving me crazy lol Thank God I found BCF and it was love at first sight!!
What is your favorite part about coming to the gym?
Going to the gym is my favorite part of the day, I feel like it's my therapy, everything gets better after training, not to mention that everyone at the gym received me very well, understand my difficulties, especially in the language and always left me the most comfortable as possible!
