Stopped in to my favorite shop to get more protein powder. August 2021 I was barely over 170 pounds and really unhappy where I was career-wise decided to take my fitness seriously and see how developing that kind of discipline would bleed over into other areas of my life, I always struggled with nutrition and leaned on these guys at the shop for help to turn that around. My benchpress went up 100 pounds from August to April 2022 and I booked up to 205 from 174 and cut down to 190. I had three or four colleagues that took notice of the transformation and started lifting with me regularly. That transformation started by figuring out what pre-workout could help me get in a good workout from 9 PM to 1045 every night. These guys always hooked me up with little samples of things to help me figure out what flavors I’d like to what supplements would work for me what what was effective. Going to a supermarket and buying from a store without talking to a knowledgeable employee, is not the route you should go. I finished my degree and making six figures.

Read moreMy husband and I went to Rock's Discount Vitamins in San Antonio looking for a protein shake. I went in think a protein shake is powdered stuff that men in the gym drink. When I walked in Jerrid not only greeted my husband and I but helped me understand it was more than just "powder stuff." Jerrid talked not only about products that he personally used but those he did not. He was so helpful to me. He was like having Google tell me all about each product I touched. I was being a stereotypical female and was touching everything in the store. He was able to not just tell me about the product but the company to include their latest release and info. Paul came out and greeted us. At first I thought it was because I was asking Jerrid so many questions. But Paul was just as helpful and even talked with my husband who by this time was tired of shopping because he had grabbed what he wanted and was waiting for me to finish. Paul made my husband forget that I was still shopping and asking Jerrid questions by talking to him about music. I walked out feeling so good about our purchases. They have made us...
Read moreAlways so helpful and non-judgmental... Starting over on my fitness journey 112 lb overweight and absolutely felt comfortable walking in here exactly 1 month ago for my first time ever. Just wish I would have came 10y ago!!! If so I'd likely be just maintaining my goal weight/physique now. But I always say, as long as you're breathing, it's never too late to change and reach your goals. Today when I was in Rocks to print out my 1 month progress since starting with my Personal Trainer, Nancy... shout out to Slow Burn Fitness (she sent me here 1 month ago and sends all her clients to Rocks)... I was given the best customer service as always and learned that one of the employees also has Hashimotos like me. My trainer does as well and this just gives me a new hope I had lost literally 13y ago when I was diagnosed. They are the first women I've seen with Hashimotos and actually fit and living their best lives. I know I can do this now that I have the right circle of support! Thank you...
