Alice Mecoy
Miss Alice has been consistent since the very beginning, and her journey has been nothing short of inspiring! She has overcome incredible challenges both inside and outside the gym — including two knee replacements, a shoulder replacement, and a battle with breast cancer. Through it all, she’s shown what true resilience looks like. Alice continues to show up with a positive attitude, putting in the work week after week — training 3x per week at IPT and adding Pilates twice a week to stay mobile and strong. es: over the last 12 months she’s lost 22lbs of bodyfat. Today, she’s fitter, stronger, and more confident than ever before. We couldn’t be more proud of how far she’s come!
What workout milestones have you accomplished since you started IPT?
I joined the gym after being sedentary for decades, and 15 months out from breast cancer surgery and radiation treatment. During my first year at the gym, I had 3 major surgeries, both my knees replaced and my right shoulder replaced/reversed. In January of 2025 I couldn’t get on or up from the floor, so I did all my core exercises on a massage table. Lifting 3 pound dumbbells was a challenge for me. Now I am getting on and off the floor, lifting 50 pound kettlebells, using the rowing machine, and pushing sleds with 100+ pounds of weights. My latest goal was to walk a 5k race under 60 minutes – I did one this month and came in 3rd in my age group with a time of 54:06. My milestones increase each and every week.
Are there any notable habit changes you’ve made since starting with IPT?
My life is completely different since I joined Infinity. I work out with Kegan 3 days a week, I take private Pilates classes 2 days a week, walk 2-5 miles every day, and log everything that I eat and drink every day. I have lost weight, gained muscle, have increased energy, sleep better, and fully enjoy my retirement.
Is there anything special that you like/love about IPT?
The trainers are amazing. Everyone is upbeat and happy to see you when you walk in. Everyone greats me by name, and cheers me on while exercising. The sessions are always varied and innovative, never boring or repetitive. The group and special classes offered are interesting and different, not your normal “everyone do burpees” classes. I am never bored during my workouts.
What advice or motivation would you give other clients/members when it comes to health and fitness?
Stick with it. Show up and do the exercises. If it feels too easy or too light, tell your trainer. Push yourself to greatness. If a 66 year old sedentary women can lose 70 pounds, work through 4 major surgeries, and push a sled across the gym, so can you.
