The Last 3-Weeks

July 11, 2010

It has been a great 3-Weeks capped off by our Fitness Boot Camp Fundraiser for the Ready or Not Foundation. We raised $850 for the Foundation! Not bad for a one hour workout.  Checkout out on Channel 6 News.

I have been blown away by our Pinnacle Fitness Boot Camp members commitment to their workouts.  Even with a hurricane looming in the Gulf of Mexico and vacation on everyone’s minds they still made their workouts.  Keep it UP!

Pinnacle Fitness Boot Camps started its Pinnacle Fitness Challenge in conjunction with the Mayor’s Fitness Council. It is going really well! All 11 participants are seeing significant changes in their body’s and their lives. Lowering blood sugar, losing inches, losing pounds, gaining confidence, getting stronger, etc… are just a few of the comments I have been hearing from the participants.

We also launched our first boot camp 2 go program yesterday. The program consists of video workouts and music provided by Workout Muse. If you haven’t checked out Workout Muse click here to download your next interval workout. Or if you have smart phone check out the Workout Muse App. This App will let you create a music playlist using your own music. While you are working out  it will keep count of your work to rest rounds.  It is a great training tool for metabolic training like we do in boot camp or cardio intervals you do on your off days.

Next time you are at Freebirds try the Freedom Salad. I ate one yesterday and was pretty fired up about it. Lots of greens, lean chicken, black beans, tomatoes, pico, and guacamole. I didn’t even need salad dressing. 5 Stars!!!!

Have a great week, eat clean, try a recovery workout with a foam roller if you get the opportunity.

Do As I Say…

July 2, 2010

Not as I Do, Kinda…

I won’t get into the excuses (lack of planning) but I wound up in the Whataburger drive-thru for dinner this evening! I know, I know…

I wanted to share this with you because even when you are stuck (or choose) eating something not on the “Pinnacle Fitness Boot Camp approved food list” you can still make some smart choices. You have to keep your wits about you though. Order what you need, not what is in the picture.

What I had to eat for dinner was:
A Number 2, no cheese, on a wheat bun, with no bun oil, plus extra veggies. Also, I upgraded to have the side salad rather than downing the fries. It was worth the extra $.25 for the salad even if it was only iceburg lettuce and two cherry tomatoes. I didn’t need the extra grease or salt. No one really needs it!

Quick reminder: There is no class on Monday next week. We will meet on Tuesday. I hope you can make it Tuesday.

Also, Saturday July 10th we will be having our Grocery Store Tour at the HEB on Robert and Alameda at 8am.

Then we will be offering a fundraiser for the Ready or Not Foundation at First Christian Church at 10am. This will be a one hour workout you will not want to miss. Invite your friends and family members! All we are asking is a $10 donation. I will be sending out more information regarding the fundraiser.

I hope you have a great 4th of July holiday weekend. Let me know if you need anything.

Committed to Your Success,
