There is a difference between interest and commitment.  When you’re interested in doing something, you do it only when convenient.  When you’re committed to something, you accept no excuses; only results. – Kenneth Blanchard

Just stopped by to see if possibly anyone had left feedback about Body Combat.  I took the 11am BC class on 5/31 and found it exhilirating and quite a workout.  I am not using a Body Bugg but I did invest in a LifeFitness Pedometer which also comes with software and an u/l and allows you to view your weekly activity.  I would love to have a Body Bugg but it would have come out of my vacation fund so I found this $39 alternative.  During the BC class my entire time reading stayed in the aerobic zone.  I will definitely be looking forward to BC.

We have such wonderful instuctors who are working very hard themselves to offer this program.  I am really thankful to be a member.

Keep up the hard work 'Biggest Loser' contestants, you will reap the benefits with every workout!

Hi Again Kathie,

Body Flow I absolutely enjoy and feel its helped me in preparing for the other classes.  I have taken one class a day missing only two days as of the 15th and did 3 classes on Friday to make up for the loss.  Friday, I did my first Body Step class and although I took dancing thats over 25 years ago.  I wondered where my coordination went during that class but I have overcome whether anyone is watching and realize the most important thing is for me to keep moving and trying.  Eventually, I have to get better, right?!  At least I am hopeful.  So if you see someone who can't keep up or is going in the opposite direction as everyone else in Body Step that might very well be ME!  Even when my muscles ache and I have to take Tylenol and Motrin before class, I will be there with a positive attitude and a smile.  Everyone seeks there own success but I like the instructors want to see everyones success. 

About joining the club.  From day one I was impressed and only more so every day I am there.  This contest is eight weeks after that what is your plan?  For my family, we have a membership at the YMCA (where I never attended one class in over ten years of membership).  Our family enjoys the pool and I would not want to give that up.  Like many of us budget minded folks, I thought of how can I afford both memberships.  I thought about what the cost of one visit to a doctor is per month and/or  costs RX prescribed, even with insurance the price would exceed the monthly membership.  The health I gain and keep now will save me $$$$ in the future. 

On May 15, 2008...I officially joined the Workout Co. They even applied my registration fee from the contest to my membership registration $aving me $50.  This is a club that cares about its members.  Also, the membership is deferred and actually begins when the contest ends, so that was a bonus 8 weeks for FREE!  This is a great time for Biggest Loser Contestants to get on board for making their journey for health and fitness long term.  It surely does not end at 8 weeks.  This is a commitment to yourself ~ You are worth it!  Best wishes for everyones success.


Happy to be Officially a Member!

I think it looks like an egg, which reminds me that I need to refresh my memory on how much protein my body needs with consideration to my physical activity increase. 

I've heard great reports about some losing 10 or more pounds per week.  Then I receive an e-mail which mentioned the possibility of people quitting their teams.  WHAT IS THAT?  Quitters, I can't imagine anyone who signed up quitting at all.  The Workout Co. is awesome and the staff is outstanding, more than I ever could have expected.  I always thought of choosing a gym for their equipment but since May 1st, I now know the greatest asset is having the wonderful instructors.

Thanks to the dedicated and hard working instuctors, in two weeks I feel an incredible difference in my flexibility and strength.  I'd love to be at the gym am and pm but like everyone I have a busy schedule and find it impossible to coordinate twice a day to the gym.  Anyhow, I do my best to attend at least one class of instruction daily and within the first three classes I began craving working out and loving every minute I am at the gym.

Thanks to everyone who makes the Workout Co. the great club that it is.  Best wishes to all the teams for great success stories.  For me, I won the day I walked through the doors for my first instruction.

Stay strong, be safe and ENJOY every moment you spend at the Workout Co.


Pressing on toward my personal goal!

Hey,
   Does anyone know which group classes are the least crowded?
