Tina, known on the app as @TinaOC, began her fitness journey as a way to stay strong and maintain muscle while getting older. What started as a focus on preserving strength has turned into a full lifestyle centered around building muscle, reducing body fat, and staying active. With the help of her favorite Sunny equipment and the SunnyFit® app, she has achieved results she once did not think were possible, including visible muscle definition and improved overall health.

Question 1

What inspired you to begin your fitness journey?

So what inspired me in my fitness journey as I was getting older, I had to figure out different things that I could do that would help me maintain my strength, because we all know we are getting older and we start losing our muscle. So that is what gives me my inspiration to move on in the day.

Question 2

What does your current fitness routine look like?

So basically my routine has become more strength, lifting heavy, and using the rower and the stair climber just because it is great for the butt.

Question 3

Which Sunny Health & Fitness equipment do you use most, and how does it support your workouts?

My favorite pieces of equipment are the SunnyFit® [Sunny Health & Fitness] full motion pulley rower [Premium Smart Full Motion Magnetic Rowing Machine] and the traditional rower. That helps me to see the definition in my legs and my arms and in my stomach, and then the stair climber [Foldable Smart Cardio Step Climber], of course, with the butt, and it helps with the core and everything else.

Those two pieces of equipment along with my strength routines, which I do on the SunnyFit app have gotten me to where like in later years, I never thought I would be able to see the definition in my abs. I never saw them my whole life until I got onto this app and started doing these routines with the rower and the stair climber and the strength, I mean, my heart rate has dropped down.

My weight might have gone up, but my body fat, that is what I started looking into was dropping the body fat. So not too much the scale weight, my scale weight is going up, but that is only because I am gaining muscle and that was something I didn’t think I would ever be able to do. I do do some bone density on the app just because it is needed as you age.

Question 4

What does being part of the SunnyFit community mean to you, and how has it supported or motivated your journey?

What the community means to me, the SunnyFit community is amazing. They are there to support you and cheer you on, and that has been a big motivation for me because you can be on here, you can explain your goals, you can tell them your focus, and everybody is just great.

And I love being part of that community because I love encouraging people. I love kind of going in and saying, “Hey, try this strength workout, you need to do this, why not try this, or like the stair climber, hey, work out on the stepper.” So we are all there just working out. So it has been great.
