What sparked your love of fitness?
Simmons: I fell in love with fitness when I joined track and field in the seventh grade. I joined my first gym at 19 and began my lifting journey. All this came to a halt when I had kids, but I learned a lot about diet because I became insulin resistant after giving birth, which resulted in me struggling to lose 60 pounds, suffering from ligament issues, and nearly diabetic. Fast forward, I’ve reversed a lot of these issues through diet, dropped the weight and am active again. I’ve run multiple half marathons, completed Spartan Races, and more. I got into personal training about a year ago and started at the JCC in April.
