“I have lost 13 lbs and inches off my waist and hips. But most importantly, my back is stronger and I donʼt have pain

“I am not overweight and looking to be “The Biggest Loser”. However, like most people I wanted to loose a few extra pounds and get more fit. I have been fairly athletic most of my life but after a reconstructive ligament surgery, having a baby and turning 40, losing the pounds and getting fit again has been a huge challenge.

 

In July, I threw-out my back lifting my 30 pound son and I was in extreme pain and lying in bed for a week. After X rays, I found that I had degenerative discs between my L4 and L5. My doctor and chiropractor said that I will most likely need surgery and the best thing that I can do for my back is to strengthen my core.  I Luv My Body Fitness Boot Camp is CORE. Almost everything that we do is core related.

 

Unlike other “bootcamps”, I Luv My Body Fitness Boot Camp is not military-like. There isnʼt anyone yelling at you for an hour. Classes are always different and the trainers come-up with new and unique ways to work us out.  Itʼs a combination of pilates, yoga, strength training, and “PE” classes all in one.  Sometimes, I feel like Iʼm back in 7th grade PE class which is really fun! My “classmates” are all really supportive and there is a friendly competition which motivates me.

 

Since joining in September I have lost 13 lbs and inches off my waist and hips. But most importantly, my back is stronger and I donʼt have pain. When I took a week break during the holidays, my back pain reemerged. Going to bootcamp is no longer an option but a necessity for me. Thank you, Kristen, Missy and John!”
