LEarn about Priya Rajasekaran's Journey at BSC

Congratulations to our August 2025 Athlete of the Month, Priya Rajasekaran!

Where were you in your fitness journey before BSC and where are you now?

Before BSC, I had not done anything beyond regular walks and had never been to any gym or even lifted a barbell before. Since I joined, I feel stronger than I ever did and am now able to lift both my kids together.

What were your goals when you started, and have you achieved any of them?

I wanted to work on my physical health after my second pregnancy, but I was not sure where to begin. Thanks to my husband, who signed up for the free trial class to see if I would be interested. I loved the trial class and decided to join BSC as there will be coaches in each class, where I can properly learn to do workouts and use equipment without worrying about injuring myself. Now, for the first time in my life, I feel stronger. My goal now is to improve myself a little every week compared to the week before.

What about BSC makes you keep coming back?

Of course, the community. People around here are positive, motivated, and especially kind, and I hope someday my consistency may help inspire my kids to care for their physical health as they grow up.

When/what was your "ah ha!" moment?

I am not able to point to just one, as I feel that every week, when I could do something I have never done before.

Does anyone at the gym (member or trainer) inspire you and why?

I can say that every athlete here inspires me to improve myself in different movements and workouts, and definitely, coaches who always push me to try a little more in every workout.
