I've been going to Victor's classes for over a year now since I started at AMES. I have been an athlete my entire life. From soccer, to Karate, Wrestling and Track and Field. The knowledge that Victor provides is Elite. In my humble opinion, it would be a shame to see Victor leave. As a health advocate myself, I recommend that it would be in Ames, best interest to do whatever in its power to retain Victor and offer him a management position where he could continue to transform our lives with health.

When I first came to the Fitness Center, I met Victor. He has really made positive impact on the gym - both in the classes offered and the maintenance of the facility. I go regularly to the fitness center. I will really miss Victor - he is always pleasant and has made the fitness center a great place to work out!

I have been going to The Ames Fitness Center for over 30 years. It has kept me healthy and my mind alert on many a trying day. I have seen times when morale was low and when it was high. Ames benefits tremendously when morale is high. That strong positive spirit often reflects the enthusiasm of the manager. Victor's spirit is as strong as any I've seen and you can sense that in the expanding fitness classes and activities, as well as the mood in the locker room. Victor's leaving will be a significant loss.

Victor is a real asset to the Fitness Center and Ames. It would be a shame to see him go.

I'm not sure if making the fitness center manager position permanent would keep Victor from leaving but at least it will help to attract and retain future manager(s).

Victor is a professional dedicated fitness instructor capable of motivating not-so-motivated people who spend a lot of time sitting at a desk, like me.

Victor's transformed the fitness center, in part by building a much stronger sense of community that keeps people motivated to show up. That's not something you'll easily replace. Keep him if you can.

We don’t want to lose Victor! He listened to our needs and turned the old ARC fitness center into a truly excellent place to exercise. Most of all, he is dedicated, enthusiastic, positive, supportive and genuinely caring about our health and fitness progress. There’s a wider variety of fitness classes to keep the body and mind engaged. A personal workout plan upon request. Helpful nutrition and diet advice. New cardio and weight equipment to fill in missing gaps of a strength training regimen. Crossfit equipment like wall balls, battle ropes, foam jump boxes / plyo boxes, jump ropes. The new yoga mats/blocks/straps, Bosu balls, good exercise mats, boxing pads/gloves, high-density foam rollers. Personally, his high intensity workout classes have helped me increase my cardiovascular and muscular strength to become a healthier and stronger person.
