MTAN: Hayley Taylor

Meet Hayley, Our latest More Than a Number!

Have you always been involved in fitness or exercise?
If yes, what have you done previously?
I play netball on a Saturday through winter, however I’ve never been involved in fitness or exercise full time.

What brought you to Planet Fitness?
I wanted to join a gym and Planet Fitness was the most affordable for what I was looking for.

Did you have a goal when you first joined?
When I first joined I had no goal. I would only show up a couple of times a week. It was an 8 week challenge in March this year that got me motivated.

Have you reached a goal or have you achieved what you originally set out to do?
I have lost 9kg since going to Planet Fitness. I am at my goal weight, but there is always room for improvement.

What was your perception of gyms/health clubs before you joined? Has it changed after joining Planet Fitness?
I said I would never join a gym, but after joining Planet Fitness I couldn’t imagine my life without it. The staff are amazing and so are the members.

What are your fitness goals for the future?
To stay fit and healthy with a rocking bod!

Biggest obstacles you have had to overcome on your fitness journey?
Fitting the gym into my routine. Enjoying it rather than being forced to do it. Now they can’t get rid of me!
