We had some huge success stories this session. Not only were people improving times for running and races but lots of people lost a lot of weight in just 4 short weeks. It just goes to show that hard work pays off in a big way.
This is just a quick video of one of the last workouts for the April session. As you can see, everything can be modified to fit your current fitness level.
Here are the Tuesday and Thursday classes doing the same workout.
We have been blessed with tons of new clients this month. I’d like to post a shout out to the teachers and principal of Griffin Middle School.
This month we also welcome the KOs from GTO. This group was selected out of 22 area businesses to represent in a 3 month weight loss/lifestyle change challenge. By the time we are done with them, they won’t even recognize themselves.
We also welcome a group of ladies from the Florida Chamber of Commerce. This group of ladies were not selected as finalists in the city wide challenge but decided not to let that stop them from being the best they can be. You can find this group working out with Mike during our Urban Assualt camp down town on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
We have many other great new and old clients and we are grateful to each and every one of you for allowing us the privilege of helping you on your fitness journey
This is one of the workouts we did in the new gym. It’s so big we can do the sleds inside.
To quote one of our morning boot campers, “The devil wears Umbros”. I met everyone this morning in my devil costume complete with blinking horns that I bought at my last AC/DC concert. They knew right away this was going to be HELL.
After a warm up we did mini workouts.
1. A Kettlebell Deadlift, Swing ladder just to get their hearts racing and glutes firing.
2. 15/15 swings for 15 sets
3. Rows and Push ups on the KB
4. 10 Jacks and 5 Burpees every minute on the minute for a long time
5. A big lap with the KB in the rack
I don’t know if what I heard was screeches of delight or horror.
I love Halloween!
I finally made it. 100 pounds lost. Well I’m over the hump anyway, I still have a ways to go but I feel like it is all down hill from here. Not that I think it is going to be any easier or go any faster. Because I don’t. It’s just that I can very faintly see the finish line. Two years ago I only dreamed of being where I am today.
When I started Boot Camp I set my goals and worked towards them. I’m still doing that. What’s my next goal gonna be? I want to run a 10K race. Yep, that’s a tuffy. I’ve got a lot of folks helping me with this too! And believe me, one part of reaching my goal(s) has been and will continue to be my friends and family and the encouragement and support they provide. That includes Laurel and Mike. These two have been with me from the very beginning, from that very first night. I can’t thank them enough and I hope they are enjoying this milestone as much as I am.

100 pounds lost!
I haven’t posted in forever! I’ve got video and pictures that I need to get posted pronto.
I have been totally distracted working on the business. We are starting our new Crawfordville boot camp on Sept. 15th. We were hoping to be in our new 5600 sqft building in Sept. but everything is mired in permits right now. We can only hope for late Oct at this point.
I am posting a montage of our first Run, Bike, Swing workout. It was tough. Most everyone did this workout after they did the Saturday boot camp workout. It was raining that day so I think that kept a lot of people away. We are going to do this every month if there is enough interest.
Our next one will be on a Sunday at 10:00 am. You can always check our new online calendar for upcoming dates and events.
If you don’t have a bike, don’t worry, just run and swing. If you have never done the swings, arrive early (about 20 mins) so someone can teach you. I would love to have some team competitions in the future and turn this into a charity event.
