December POM: Devon LaMachia

Devon is a fantastic part of our community — always kind, coachable, easy-going, and consistently putting in the work. She shows up, supports others, and truly represents what PTS is all about. Prototype of the Month is well deserved! Below, she answers a few questions about her time at PTS.


1.) Share your experience at Prototype
After what felt like an entire year of sitting during grad school, I knew I wanted to be more active. I came back to Prototype, and it was the best decision. I’ve made so many new friends here who make every class fun (no matter how tough the workout is) but my favorite moment has to be meeting my boyfriend Ed!

2.) What is your favorite part about being at Prototype?
I used to do at-home workouts and always felt like something was missing. When I came to Prototype, it felt like I finally found that missing piece, the community! It truly makes a huge impact. Everyone here genuinely wants the best for you. 

3.) What are your hobbies and activities?
If I’m outside, I love playing pickleball, skiing, and going for walks. And if I'm inside I enjoy crocheting, reading, or baking!

4.) How has Prototype helped you or solved a problem for you?
Prototype has shown me that if you put your mind to something, you can truly do hard things. I also know I will always feel better after going to the gym. Sometimes the hardest part is just getting in the car, but I never regret it once I’m there.

5.) What are you continuing fitness goals to this point?
To get some form of movement everyday and to one day get a pull up. 

6.) Favorite Quote
 “Laughter is timeless, imagination has no age, dreams are forever.” -Walt Disney
