As the Skinny Challenge Turns and the next round of Fit Camp

- As we roll into the first week of February the Skinny Challenge enters it's 4Th of 12 weeks. With 8 competitors we waited until the end of the 3rd week to have our first weigh in, so as to be expected results do vary, you can expect to see results posted later this week. Overall the group is a solid bunch and it's evident they are all very serious about improving their health. To say that I am proud would be and understatement and I am so excited to see what they all will accomplish over the next 8 weeks.

-The next round of Standard Fit Camp starts February 22ND and the schedule and pricing will stay the same.

Monday/Wednesday/Friday - 5:30-7 a.m.
Tuesday/Thursday - 5:30-7 p.m.
Saturday - 8:30-10 a.m.

Pricing - $8 per class drop in rate, $100 - 3 classes per week for 6 weeks, $150 unlimited access.

Sign up early! Those who sign up and pay first will be the only ones guaranteed to have a spot in the next round of Fit Camp. Space is limited so don't miss your chance to be a part of the best group experience in town!

- Morning Out Fit Camp - This is a new class on the schedule for 2010 and spots are starting to fill up. This class was set up for those that have free time in the mornings.

INTRODUCING - The Lunch Special Workout ! Not enough time on the schedule to get in that workout before or after work or if your just looking for that extra burn during the workday this is the class for you! This class is setup for those who work downtown and need a convenient place to burn some calories and add some accountability to the workday. Trained By Cain Studio takes only a few minutes to walk to from anywhere in downtown, so getting here and back to work is easy on that lunch hour.

Starts February 9Th!!!

Tuesday/Thursday 12-12:45 P.M.

- Pricing - $8 per class/ $10 per week/ discounted package rates available


Finally a special note to all my clients that stuck it through with me during the transition over the past few months. I owe everything I have now to your loyalty and dedication and hope you see all the hard work I have put into my business for you to enjoy and benefit from. It would be easy to say things are finished and I am happy where the studio and the business is but in the tradition of achieving one goal only to raise the bar and find another step to take, things are far from finished. Here are a few things you'll see in the upcoming weeks:

- More cardio equipment! Next weekend I am going to pickup another treadmill and an elliptical by Star Trac.

- More smaller pieces of equipment for classes and personal training. More medicine balls, pull up bars, climbing rope, agitator rope, and assorted length jump ropes.

These are just a few things beyond the obvious things of cleaning, finishing up some of the painting, and other organizational ideas.

If you have any questions or concerns feel free to contact me!

Thanks!

I may not know what the cure for cancer is but I sure do know what prevention looks like.

This past weekend I participated in the Susan G. Komens Race for the Cure. My way of participating is in volunteering and helping out any way I can and in fact this was my 6th year helping out with a Susan G. Komens event. Over the years I have had many different titles and jobs that have introduced me to some incredible people all affected by cancer in their own very personal ways.
Being a personal trainer has me on the front end of the battle against cancer in the form of making healthy choices in life style and eating habits. Like many things it is easier to do all you can to prevent something from happening than waiting for it to put you at deaths doorstep searching for a cure. Obesity and sedentary lifestyles are 2 common threads that transcend all forms of cancer and an endless stream of health and quality of life issues.
Above you will see what my form of prevention looks like in my personal life. It's in the form of a running streak that I started back in April and an endless line of worn out shoes. Now here I am 204+ days of continuous running and somewhere around 1,250 + miles. I didn't really keep track of shoes but thanks to an awesome client/friend and local Grasshopper, I just received a brand new pair of much need shoes. So in my mind I see a great friend passing a gift on to me that very well might prevent some horrible health issue.
So in that same thought I began to think of ways I could pass that way of thinking onto the event that has become such an integrated part of my life and here are a couple of things I would like to do:

1. Find a way that allows more volunteers and core personal affiliated with the race a way to practice what they preach and participate in the event and be active and healthy on a regular basis.
2. Eliminate all the nasty snack food, candy, and pizza brought in for volunteers. I feel sure there will be some kicking and screaming but we have to learn to practice what we preach and lead by example. So there has to be a way to eliminate these horrible food choices and replace them with appropriate smart choices.

That brings me to my final thought when it comes to diet and what is available to the hard working people of downtown. As you probably saw on my facebook page today I decided to break down one eating establishments lunch special. This is going to become a weekly thing for me and while I don't think I can change the world with a blog or on facebook, I just might help some of you make some better decisions and encourage some accountability. So the plan is to hit a restaurant once a week and break down their special or most popular items.

Until then be active, manage your portions, and encourage others to get up and get out and exercise,

Ricky
