FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
January 4, 2022 – Amy Jo Palmquest, 37, a NUTRISHOP® franchisee and an ACE-certified personal trainer with a degree in exercise science and nutrition, is the cover model for STRONG Fitness Magazine’s January/February 2022 “Brave New Year” issue. Inside, she shares how she overcame obstacles running a gym and Nutrishop store during the pandemic and how she strives to put others first, including her clients.
“I feel so fortunate to have this opportunity with Strong Fitness Magazine,” Palmquest said. “But beyond that, it strengthens my passion and mission to keep helping people live healthier lives.”
Bryon McLendon, who founded Nutrishop, a national nutritional supplement retail franchise specializing in weight loss, wellness, sports nutrition, and more, said he was proud to see Palmquest land this cover. “She’s always been such an incredibly genuine person who truly loves helping others. This cover opportunity is well deserved.”
Palmquest recently moved with her family from Washington to Arizona to support a career move for her husband, but she left behind a fantastic team to train their clients and run the Nutrishop store. Plus, she returns as often as she can to put in face time with everyone. She’s considering opening a new studio in her new hometown and looks forward to what all 2022 will bring.
When asked why they chose Palmquest for the cover of the magazine’s 50th issue, Editor-in-Chief Chelsea Clarke, had this to say, “Amy Jo Palmquest embodies what it means to be a STRONG cover athlete. Her physical strength is admirable, but it's her resilience, selflessness, and dedication to being an impactful leader that moves the needle in the industry.”
STRONG Fitness Magazine’s January/February 2022 issue is hitting newsstands this week. In addition to Palmquest’s cover story and her challenging upper-body workout feature, this issue offers interesting and in-depth reads on the downsides of a goal-setting addiction and another on ways to overcome various setbacks, more workouts, delicious soup recipes, and more.
