I am so thankful I took a leap of faith and signed up this program. Each day is filled with new challenges, but I’m learning so much about cause marketing. I can’t believe I’ve been away interning in San Diego,CA for a month already! So far living in this city has been amazing! My marketing internship has been quite the hands on experience so far. But the next person will get a rig that's great.Leave a Comment Reunited in San Diego!! San Diego (Sammie) We can't ever move because we'll have to set up a new one. I couldn't feel my forearms anymore from drilling the concrete. (Marshall) I think it was like 10 o'clock at night. The day we put the rig up, we did a workout. (Sammie) We were so pumped to get all this gear in and we wanted to do a workout together like right away. That's specific to building a garage that would be my piece of advice. You got you go this way (sideways - facing walls) but as soon as you go that way (facing out of the garage). Something you'll never notice until you put the bar down and it starts rolling out of the garage. I would tell them not to do that and just make it completely flat. If you're gonna build a garage specifically for a gym. I would say the one piece of advice that have specific to someone that's gonna build a garage if you're gonna build a garage gym they always build a garage on a slant just like a one or two inch tall so that water runs out of the garage. I would say just do it and make it a priority and save for it. And investing in your own health and your own fitness level. (Marshall) It's a big upfront investment but someone told me one time you're never gonna regret investing in yourself. " Oh we're so bummed that we have an awesome gym." You know money is an issue sometimes but we never looked back on this and regret it. (Sammie) I would first say just do it because I'm so glad we did. I like Olympic lifting and we we do a lot of cardio together too! Working out together is definitely a big part of our relationship, some time we look forward to every day. A lot of girls, they'll get done with the college and be like " I just want to have small shoulders and whatever" but there's just a feeling you get after you're done working out and being a strong woman is really fun and exciting. So it's fun and I really saw huge improvements in my swimming career because of lifting and it's just something that I didn't want to leave my life. (Sammie) Through my lifting I felt like I got a lot better in swimming because I was a sprinter and so it was just all the explosive movements so I really gravitated towards Olympic lifting and I still really like to do that today even though I'm 18 weeks pregnant and just working around it but (laughter). Almost made the Olympics and her dad actually got her into Olympic lifting when she was younger.

(Marshall) We were both D1 swimmers in college Sammie was a stud.
