Meet Lisa , She runs like a girl, now boys try to keep up!

   Lisa is our Spotlight for this month. 

   We met Lisa when she was 6 months pregnant. Yep, she joined boot camp at 6 months pregnant. We love this about her. She is a former college athlete and a bada$$ chick. Lisa is the fastest runner I know, and still to this day my goal is beat her in a sprint.
   During her pregnancy she kept running and going to boot camp til she gave birth. Lisa came to Boot Camp on a Tuesday night and ran sprints and did the whole workout. The next day she gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby girl. We love her at Boot Camp Moms because she always gives 100%. Lisa is not only a mom, but a nurse. Last week she got called in and worked all night and showed up for class at 7 30am that next morning. She never went to bed just came right to workout from the job. She has that "Wow Factor" we all strive to find. We asked Lisa a few questions about Boot Camp and why she joined.

What made you decide to come to Boot Camp?
1. Lisa Fiander had been trying to get me to go to boot camp for months but it wasn't until I got pregnant and really wanted to be strong and healthy during my pregnancy that I decided to try it.

What do you like best about the classes?

2. I love boot camp because it's so much fun and there's no pressure.  It's a group of women who are there to have a good time and get fit, no judgement, only encouragement.   I've met so many awesome women, especially Jenn and Kyle, I know that the two of them truly have my back and would drop anything to help me if I truly needed it.  I also love feeling strong and fit.

What's your favorite exercise?

3. I like exercises that involve activities like jumping, it doesn't feel as much like working out that way.

 

You were pregnant when you joined, can you share why its important to stay in shape during pregnancy?

4.  Pregnancy is like anything else in life, it is always easier when you are in good shape.  Not only does being in shape pregnancy easier but it also helps with labor and your recovery.  As a labor and delivery nurse I've seen first hand how physically demanding having a baby is and  I wanted to be as prepared as possible for that.  Being in shape during my pregnancy also really helped me to get back into shape afterwards.

What would you tell someone that is nervous about trying Boot Camp?

5. Know that it's going to be hard but it will get better.  I've been coming to boot camp for over a year and a half and I still have to stop and take breaks but there is so much I can do now that I couldn't do before and that is what keeps me motivated.

Keep up the great work Lisa K. You are a rock-star!

Finding Your Moment

At Boot Camp Moms, we are all about people setting goals and working hard to achieve them.

We love to celebrate every milestone and accomplishment. However, sometimes we get to focused on them and miss so many milestones and moments along the way. Think back to the first time you worked out with us. How did that first workout feel? Did you feel like the whole class knew everything that they were doing except you? Or did you feel like you were going to fall over if you had to run one more step?

 For Kyle and I, that is how it was for us! The very first Boot Camp Class we ever took together, we ran out of the room after 15 minutes, and let's just say one of us got sick. Look at you now. How do you feel during class now? Now a lot of you are doing push ups on your feet, running faster than we have ever seen, stopped drinking soda, changed how you are eating, have increased your hand weights, have lost 10, 15, 20 and even 60 pounds or more. SAVOR that moment!
 One of my favorite quotes from a movie is

"Life is not about how many breaths you take it is about moments that take your breath away."

Live in that moment and celebrate it! Think about how we are with our kids, when we send them to kindergarden, we do not expect them to earn a Harvard Degree right? As parents we are thrilled when they learn how to write their name. Apply the same rules to yourself, be just as excited and soak in the glory of that moment. Everyday Kyle and I witness all of you hitting milestone after milestone and it is amazing and powerful to watch. For all of our Boot Camp Moms we will continue to always love and celebrate every moment with you! Think about all the moments you had this week. Tell a friend, tell your family, tell us, as we always say you all are FABULOUS now go celebrate yourself!
