Training By Tye in Rancho Cucamonga presents our TYETAN Of The Month
Each month we will select a member that is consistently hard working and a valued team member who has demonstrated what it means to be a Tyetan.
Tell us about yourself.
My name is Tracey Ortiz and I live in Rancho Cucamonga. I am a stay at home mom, who is the PTA President at my kids’ school…yes, you are absolutely correct, I am that cliche.
What were things like for you before joining Training By Tye?
Before joining TBT things weren’t too bad, I was a runner and would run with friends. Sometimes my friends and I would do the occasional workout DVD. We were pretty consistent on the running, but the DVDs sure were hit or miss. Needless to say, we got bored real quick those.
So why did you end up joining TBT?
Oh my gosh, I could not listen to the same DVD day in and day out I was getting so bored which turned into not being consistent in getting them done. My body wasn’t changing anymore either of course. Luckily, I had a fellow mom/ friend who was a member at Training By Tye and she brought me in for a trial. It was great from day 1, I know I would love it here. What really sealed the deal was all the other members. We have the nicest, warmest most supportive group of members.
What was the first impression of your Training By Tye experience?
I remember in that first week or two, the workouts were definitely hard work, but with that came a huge sense of accomplishment. I’ve been told I may be a bit competitive with myself so I felt the need to keep going in order to beat my last workout. I also love the small group training atmosphere, it allows you to be a bit social, but still have that feel of one on one personal training. Coach Tye is great at tailoring workouts to your individual needs. And here I am 2 years in.
What tools have benefited you most while training?
The best tool is Tye’s brain; I have come away with so many great bits of knowledge. I still start my day with a “green” drink from a challenge I did over a year ago. I have adopted the carb cycling and supplements into my everyday routine. I think the biggest thing is the motivation I receive from Tye. She really is on your side and wants you to succeed all around. I hear her voice in my head daily whether it’s during a tough workout or when I’m getting ready to eat. You can’t find that anywhere else.
I love to ask, how is Training By Tye different from other places for training?
First and foremost, Coach Tye makes this program different from all others. Tye makes sure our workouts change every month, she educates us on proper form and technique so that we get better and get results. Tye informs us on how to have better habits that lead to better nutrition. She cares about us as individuals and is available almost 24/7. I know that is not something you will find at any other place. She’s literally a text away.
Next up, the Tyetans! The group of people I get to surround myself with just take this program to another level. Everyone is so encouraging and supportive, I am lucky to be able to call them friends. That’s what makes us unique, we are all friends working our butts off having fun.
TBT is different because it’s real.
What results and benefits have you experienced thus far?
When I began my training here I had already been running so I was in decent shape, but since joining I have actually lost 4% body fat and a few inches from just about everywhere. I can see that I am far more toned than I have ever been.
The biggest difference I feel has been with my strength. When I first started I couldn’t even do a pull up or a single push up; now I can do a pull up and believe it or not, I’m working on one arm push ups! With every workout, challenge, level or sticker (we all have things that motivate us) I see how strong I have become. That’s the best thing, especially being a mom of two boys, for them to see I’m just as strong and fit as any “guy”.
As an added bonus, my doctor was floored at how perfect my last blood/ lab tests were. He said you don’t see that often.., he may have added something about “at your age” too. Love when I can break a stereotype.
Do you have any words of wisdom for anyone looking at joining Training By Tye?
You have to try it, it’s fun. Just come in and you will be hooked. You will feel stronger and more confident the second you are done with your first workout. And it’s so much fun, I can not say that enough.
