We want to take a moment to shine a SPOTLIGHT on Heather Bratt this month! 🤩 She is an inspiration!
Here is what she had to say:
"This life is about Balance, folks! 2025 was a tough year for a family. I was feeling really negative about it until I walked into my first Fitness Class of 2026 at the Balance Health gym said the same to Keith. He smiled, and sagely reminded me that 2025 was the year I took back control of my health. How right he is and how grateful I am for the turn-around I’m now enjoying!
For years and years, I was a marathon runner, tri-athlete, Spartan competitive racer, and general tough cookie. Covid gave me the excuse I needed to sit back and relax, which I did for… um… years. I went from one extreme to another and the yo-yo effect at my middle-age really did a number.
I started 2025 with several health issues brewing. In abject defeat, I dragged myself into Dr. Morgan’s office and sobbed to him about how out of control my body felt, how low energy I was, how much weight I was gaining, and the absolute failure I felt. He quickly took action, ran some labs, diagnosed a chronic pain issue spot-on (for which I soon had needed surgery), addressed my blood sugar issues, and got me back into the gym at a REASONABLE schedule.
In other words, he helped me to find the BALANCE I had totally lost in my life. Balance has resulted in no more pain, good muscle gains, and a 40-pound weight-loss. I can run a 10K without issue and am currently working on my goal of doing 10 full pull-ups (I can do 7!).
I am forever grateful for the team at Balance Health. The name is fitting. Balance is the goal, the point, and the solution. May 2026 be the year we all gain more BALANCE! Go team!"
We are so proud of you, Heather! Keep up the great work! 💪
