Michael,
Athlete at FYR Heart of Camden

“FYR has made me feel more comfortable and confident. It has made me stronger physically and mentally. I am able to deadlift 205 pounds when I have never even touched a bar before in my life. I learned how to do cleans, back squats, and front squats. Mentally, FYR has made me stronger and given me a feeling of belonging. I don’t talk much, but the program has made me feel the warmth and community that FYR is all about. I’m proud and honored to be able to be part of this program.”
