Gigi is our well deserved Member of the Month!
Gigi is our Member of the Month, and we couldn’t be more excited to celebrate her! From the moment Gigi chose Croga, we’ve watched her transform in incredible ways. When she first joined us, running 200 meters unbroken was a challenge, but now she’s powering through multiple 200-meter intervals with ease—and that’s just the start! We’ve also seen her progress from lifting the empty bar to crushing deadlifts and squats well over 100 pounds.
Beyond her physical achievements, Gigi is a true standout in our community. She’s always the first to greet newcomers, making them feel at home and comfortable. Whether it’s partnering with someone new or encouraging others, Gigi embodies the welcoming and supportive spirit that makes Croga such a special place.
Thank you, Gigi, for your dedication, hard work, and the positive energy you bring to every class. You truly make Croga a better place for everyone. You rock!
When did you join Croga?
I believe I joined back in 2022.

I wasn’t doing any fitness activity before joining Croga. I was a twig that’s out of breathe if I attempt to run 50 meters lol.

First reaction- I thought you were all mad crazy! I kept thinking, why torture yourself to this extent?! (Which I personally enjoy now).
What improvements have you seen in the way you look, feel and perform?
Not only have I gained strength (I couldn’t even lift 5 lbs prior to joining), but my health has been way better! Things that even my Dr couldn’t fix, my blood labs are within normal after a year of joining Croga!
What days and times do you come to Croga?
Lately I’ve been coming Monday-Thursday either 5:30 or 6:30 pm

Fave post workout- staring at the mirror and hoping for miracle abs to appear.
