Member Spotlight by Gabor Gulyas
I first came to Primal because I was looking for something fun as a workout as opposed to training alone in a gym with weights. When I first joined back in March 2023 I found it very free and fun but in the last year and more since DEKA arrived we’re much more organised. And I like it! DEKA gives me the way to improve, there’s always a beginner way to do an exercise. Previously, with the OCC class there were exercises that I couldn’t get started on so I couldn’t make progress. And for me, it was much more risky, easier to get hurt. The new system is much more accessible.
My first proper ‘Primal Progress’ was when SOMEHOW I managed to get up the rope!! OCC had great moments too! It was harder to get progres though but I still managed!! I’ve been on a huge journey so far but there’s still more to come. Currently I’m working on losing more weight and get under 19 minutes on the DEKA competition. At this stage I feel strong enough so I’m working on my endurance now. My favourite Primal memory has to be the team cheering for me when I managed to finish my first DEKA competition in 35 minutes - everyone was so excited that I didn’t give up, it felt good! We’re a good team, cheering for each other!
