ARE YOU READY FOR A CHALLENGE?

Cardio Core Fitness
Spring Fever 28 Day Challenge!

In an effort make 2010 your fittest year yet, we are challenging our bootcampers to set goals/promises and succeed.

This contest is open to our Cardio Core Bootcamp clients and friends.

In general it takes 28 days to form a new habit - we are asking you to set a goal/promise for the next 28 days.


Strength, Stamina, or Willpower. You decide!

Some examples: lose 5 pounds, do cardio for 30 minutes 6x per week, pack your lunch with healthy organic whole foods five times per week, or no caffeine/ alcohol for 28 days. Maybe you want to be able to pump out 40 push-ups in 1 min.

Set a goal and follow it through!

Everyone who emails me with goals and (28 days later) results, will be entered into a draw for some great prizes!

TO BE ELIGIBLE YOU MUST:

1. Set a GOAL/promise - make it realistic, something you can accomplish in 4 weeks 2. You MUST FOOD JOURNAL for the ENTIRE 28 days. We all know those snack calories add up! There is a free online program at www.fitday.com that I like to use.

3. You MUST REGULARLY ATTEND bootcamp. Whether you are signed up for 3 day or 5 day - stick to it!

3. REPORT WEEKLY on this central blog or you can email me directly your updates and I'll post them as comments under the original 'goal' post.

By keeping a journal you are holding yourself accountable for your actions. This will also allow your trainer to offer feedback on your progress.


Good luck! Feel free to send this out to your friends to support you or join you.

Chelsea - Burnaby

My goal this month is to lose 5-7 pounds. I have already lost 12 pounds (in 9 weeks).

I would also like to be able to do push ups (the normal ones, not the wall ones) which means I need to work more on my bad arm.

I would also like to be able to do a wall squat or whatever that is called for 1 minute!

I will attend bootcamp monday-thursday and Friday I will do an hour of cardio at work.
