Carey, oh Carey

Carey has been working at Juno for about a year now. The first time she walked into Juno I had a great feeling about her, like her "vibe" was right (I know, vom) for Juno. We went to coffee and discussed the idea, but it took a while to come to fruition.

 she also likes purple guns.

Boy, is Juno lucky to have her.
I have been watching her (oh so slyly I'm sure) train a variety of folks over the past year and here is what I realize:
a) she's a great trainer, in form, function and imagination.
b) her clients love her, she already has a cult following at Juno (I heard one say she will never leave her).
c) she is hilarious, her humor is subtle, and she has me in stitches all the time.
d) she totally knows what she is talking about when it comes to cutting weight and nutrition, but will work with your foibles (like...ice cream). She helped me get to competition weight,  multiple times.
e) she has been incredibly patient with Juno's growing pains, as a young gym.

bell on the way up, and at the top. lovely form.

Recently I watched her train one of her clients, a woman of about 70. Every time this client comes in, she is a mishmash of aches, pains, imbalances, and inability to remember a single exercise (so she claims, she actually is able to do all of them as far as I can tell). Carey patiently took her thru a number of exercises. What struck me (because, as always, it's about ME) was this woman was swinging a 16k bell, with excellent technique! So I took some pictures to show off their teaching/learning skills.
OK, I'm going to end this love-fest on Carey. I know she is probably terribly embarrassed.
SMOOOCHY POOO, CAREY!!! We love you at Juno!!!
