The 100 Pounds Club
Meet Tobie Rogers. She started December 2, 2025 at Next Generation. Fast forward six months later and see her 100+ pound transformation! We are excited to share Tobie’s journey with you.
A reflection from Tobie about her transformation:
NGPT has completely changed my life! I have struggled with my weight for my entire life. I have tried countless diets, without much success and I always felt totally uncomfortable, awkward, and embarrassed in a gym. I hated to sweat and had self-diagnosed myself with an allergy to exercise.
I was discussing my latest and greatest get fit strategy with a friend one day, when she suggested that I just “do that meltdown thing” that one of our co-workers had done. I had noticed his transformation and knew he had been successful, but didn’t know how he had accomplished it. I scoped out the web page several times before I finally built up the courage to ask him about it. As we sat and talked, I could see his enthusiasm and excitement for NGPT coming out. He was talking about doing the January boot camp. But, I knew that I couldn’t wait that long; I started my journey right after Thanksgiving. I knew it would be tough with the holidays around the corner, but I couldn’t afford to gain another 10 pounds like I had done almost every year prior.
Tobie and fellow Meltdown client David Wisman both claim a gym record.
That first class was TOUGH! Emotionally, I was a mess. I was scared, nervous, ashamed, overwhelmed and on the verge of tears; I had even considered turning on my heels, walking out the door and never looking back. Before I could make my escape, Coach Marcey appeared by my side and swooped me up under her wings. She helped ease my fears and offered to partner with me. She walked me through each exercise and suggested alternatives when I needed it. I received support and encouragement from Marcey, Adam, and many other people in class that night. But it didn’t stop at the first night; it continues to happen each and every time that I walk through those doors. The trainers, instructors and coaches are incredibly amazing! You can tell that they genuinely care about each and every client. The energy at NGPT is absolutely electrifying! If I am having a bad day, I know it will be so much better after a good workout with some amazing people! Don’t tell anybody, but I actually enjoy working out these days and feel like something is missing when I take a day off!
I still have a long way to go in my journey, but I am not scared or ashamed anymore. I am more focused, determined, and confident than ever before. I know if start to falter that I will have the guidance and encouragement of so many to set me back on my path and heading in the right direction. MELT ON!
