Brandi Panson
Five years ago, Brandi Panson remembers getting out of bed “and feeling like I was the Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz.
“I was 36 years old, but when I would first step onto the floor, I would experience general aches and discomfort in my knees,” says Panson, a former gymnast and longtime runner.
At the time, Panson had never taken nutritional supplements and wasn’t looking to start. But her mother-in-law had just begun her THRIVE Experience and couldn’t stop talking about it.
“She wanted to get another month supply but couldn’t afford it, so I offered to buy it to help her THRIVE for free,” says Panson. “I figured I would just help her out but wouldn’t actually try it.”
But then the box came in the mail, and curiosity got the best of her. “The first big thing I noticed was that the mental fog I had for months suddenly lifted,” says the mom of three. During that time, Panson had been helping her husband with the billing for his businesses. “I was someone who could never stay on track, no matter what,” she says, “and suddenly I was super focused.”
A few weeks after the mental fog lifted, Panson noticed something else. She had been training for the Pittsburgh marathon, and “one morning I just sprang out of bed. I hadn’t been able to do that in years.”
Even better: Two weeks later, she completed the marathon – and remembers waking up the next day feeling good enough to take a high-intensity Zumba class. “That’s when I realized that THRIVE was no joke,” she says. “The lean muscle and joint support it has provided me with has been life changing.”
So life changing, in fact, that instead of dialing back her athletic pursuits, she’s discovered new ones. She recently began training in the aerial arts and has installed an aerial fitness studio in her basement where she and her 10-year-old daughter can practice together.
“Aerial fitness is life to me now, and if I didn’t have THRIVE, I wouldn’t be able to do it,” she says.
As a successful THRIVE Promoter, Panson regularly chats up other fitness enthusiasts and shares her experiences with them.
“Some will tell me they don’t need THRIVE because they don’t want to lose weight or they’re already fit,” she says, “but I’m living proof that it can help anyone.
“I like to point to my abs and tell people, ‘I had abs before, but not like these. Now, they’re just bang! bang! bang! Out there.’ ”
The biggest lesson Panson has learned as a successful Promoter is that everybody needs THRIVE.
“This product does so many things, from providing joint support to promoting restful sleep to giving you more energy. . . . Who doesn’t want all of that?”
