My girls rock! Yes, they do. What I love most about this contest is that it has ignited a fire right underneath my girl's feet, and they are pushing hard and moving forward and seeing results.
Miss Mary began the contest at 26.8% body fat. She has been training with me for 1 1/2 years and though she is consistent with her exercise, it has been her nutrtition that has needed some overhauling. Her work requires long hours, it's fast paced, and she finds herself at the desk for the majority of the time. Planning her meals and snacks has been the difficult aspect of the nutrition process. Since she was successful at creating consistency with her workouts - 2 weights with yours truly and 3xs on her own - nutrition was the missing link she began to tackle. What great results she's been seeing. Now she is 25.2% body fat, a 1.6% loss in six weeks! She is still the same weight, but her body fat has changed. Yipee! Her clothes are fitting differently. She purchased several blouses the other day and did not fear the dressing room. She's also beginning to see her waist again. Her goals were simple - exercise consistency and improve her nutrition. Miss Mary is creating momentum and progressing forward.
Miss Jeanel has lost 11lbs in six weeks. How awesome! What I love most about Jeanel's progress is that she truly is making fitness a lifestyle. Even when work can be long and arduous and the stress of purchasing a new home can really interrupt a routine, she has remained committed to her fitness goals. Jeanel had distinct goals. She wanted to improve her nutrition and get rid of her sweet tooth, lose 22lbs by mid May, and improve her times in the water. When she began this contest a 500 yard swim would take her 9:45. Now she's swimming it in 9:06. Quarry Lake Master Swim Clinic with Alex has been helping her get in shape and improve her confidence in the water. Jeanel's 100 yard was at 1:55 and now, 6 weeks later, is at 1:35. Her goal is 1:30. Not too far fetch now! Look out you Splash and Dash competitors for my girl!
Both girls, Mary and Jeanel, are committed. And it shows in their workouts, in the tracking of their progress, and in their self-confidence. Mary powers through our workouts. She's on a mission.That size of pants that you desire is so close. And Jeanel is leaping forward at great distances, on her own, committed to looking great for her May trip to Chile. Each have made fitess a part of their busy lives and know exactly what they are working for.
What fun it is to be a part of this.
