My name is Hellen Ndagano, and I am passionate about understanding people’s everyday experiences and sharing the stories that shape their lives. For this project, I will explore the gym through the experiences of people who work out there. I want to learn what motivates individuals to begin exercising, the obstacles they encounter, and the reasons they continue pursuing fitness. Through thoughtful conversations and interviews, I will examine how the gym influences people’s confidence, discipline, relationships, and personal growth. By highlighting one person’s fitness journey, this project will reveal the meaningful experiences behind routines that may appear ordinary but often reflect determination, identity, and change.
