Meet our Members!! Carol and Mike Woodward


Meet our Members! Introducing Carol and Mike Woodward. We are so proud they are members -- and so proud of their success!!

How long have you been a member?
My wife and I have been members since September of 2006. We retired from teaching at the Texas School for the Blind in July of 2005

Why did you choose Pure Austin?
We chose Pure Austin because it is where felt that it had the kind of atmosphere that we were most comfortable. The facilities have a large selection of equipment to meet our needs. The staff is always friendly at the desk when you sign-in. The people who are members are also friendly and seem to be goal motivated to improve their overall health. The members vary in age from the young to the elderly, I turn 66 on February the 20 and feel great. We love the location, we are about 15 minutes from Pure Austin, and no one under the age of 18 was also a selling factor.

What kind of workouts do you do? How regularly?
We try to do a total body workout using a variety of equipment three times a week. We try to use different equipment each time we come in so that our routines won’t get boring.

Who do you do them with?
My wife and I come in together in the morning on MWF and start with the aerobic equipment upstairs and then move downstairs to use the weight equipment during our routines. Our goal was to loose weight when we started and to improve our overall wellness. My wife has lost over 40 lbs. and I have lost over 30 lbs. We both feel better since we have lost the weight, our health has never been better.

Our goal is to maintain our good health and enjoy life. This is our motivation. We are very happy with our results and plan to continue our membership and workouts even when we are on trips.
