Fit Camp - Week 6

I am in just awe of the dedication of our fit campers this week. Come rain or shine, these folks put forth 100% effort to learn and become fit.

We had such a great time this morning, working our muscles hard and also our minds.

Recap:

Warm up - 2 laps/Stretch

Exercise 1 - 50 seconds active/10 seconds rest

1) Lunges
2) Squat Kicks
3) Jump Rope
4) Side/Lateral Lunges
---repeat---

Exercise 2 - Line to Line

1) Butt Kicks
2) Shuffles
3) Skip Jumps
4) Kareoka

Exercise 3 - Special Guest Christy Lewis (Yoga)

We spent 30 minutes learning some of the basic meditations and stretches in Yoga to clear our minds and focus on flexibility after a tough workout. Christy did an amazing job showing us what Yoga has to offer and certainly reminded me that I need to take that extra time out of my busy workday to focus on health and clear my mind.

If you have any further questions or are interested in contacting Kristy, please contact her at: (910) 297-3709 and schedule a one on one or group session with her.

Thank you all for another successful week at Fit Camp. We only have two more weeks and then the Heart Walk. If you haven't gotten a t-shirt yet, please let me know and I will get it to you ASAP. Wishing you all a wonderful week and I'm so very proud of every single one of you!

Best Wishes!

Fit Camp - Week 5

Way to go Campers!!! We have completed five weeks so far and you all are doing great!

This past week was a special week because I had you all to myself and we sure didn't minimize the efforts whatsoever. I am very proud of every single one of you!

To recap on what we did for review...

Warm up - 2 Laps and Stretching

Workout - Plyometrics!!! Woo hoo!

Remember, the reason we focused on exercises such as the plyometrics is to show you that you don't have to have weights or equipment to get a great workout in. This is something you can do when you are on vacation or even at home.

50 Second of exercise with 10 seconds of rest in between:

Free Squats
Jumping Jacks
Side Jumps
Kriss Cross

Walking Lunges
But Kicks
Shuffles
Kareoka

We finished up with a special demonstration from sear with her Juice Plus phenomenon. It is a great (Whole Food) source of vegetables, fruits and berries mixed in a shake, capsule and gummies. If you are not getting your daily intake of these nutrients, this is the way to go. I have one of these for breakfast every day because I know how hard it is to get the recommended daily intake.

For more information on Juice Plus, go to: (www.JuicePlus.com)There is great information and great research as this is one product that is certainly backed by research from many reputable colleges.

If you have any questions about this past weeks workout or Juice Plus, contact me at anytime.

Fit Camp Week 4

This past weekend was phenomenal as both teams went two rounds through the challenge. They both worked really hard and the energy was through the roof! I am very proud of every single camper.

Warm up - 2 laps and Stretch: Stefanie

Routine: We broke up in to two teams and everyone was set up to a station. We completed 40 seconds of exercise with 20 seconds of rest and rotation to next station. As we made our way through the stations, each member would peddle their hearts out on the upright bike and team 1 ended up with the furthest distance only by a tenth of a mile.

10 Stations

1) Free Squats
2) Push Ups
3) Jumping Jacks
4) Bent Over Rows
5) High Knees
6) Dumbbell Curl & Press
7) Lunges
8) Jump Rope
9) Crunches
10) Upright Bike

Goal Setting: Adam

Write your goals in affirmation form (as if you already achieved your goal) on a note card and put it in your purse or wallet so that every time you go in to your wallet or purse, you are thinking about your goal. Read it before you go to bed and when you wake up in the morning to train your mind to constantly think about your goals. Remember what Coke and Pepsi does to put their product in front of you? Do the same with your goals so you can stay on track to being victorious!

Again, congratulations to everyone for an awesome week and I look forward to this week's Fit Camp! Keep up the hard work and I will see you all soon.

Best wishes,

Adam Freeman
