Boot Camp Competition: This is what it is all about!

Saturday, January 25th, a day which will live in infamy!  Okay, so I am being little over dramatic, but seriously, what a great day! It was Team Rachel vs. Team Valerie for a little Boot Camp Competition.  So this was not the Alabama vs. Auburn in state rivalry, it certainly was a test of strength and feats as we competed for prizes and bragging rights.  (I’m not saying the winners, I’m just going to congrats!)

So with that being said,  what is Boot Camp Competition?  Well, for starters, it is an amazing time where I actually got to test out what I have learned over the past month.

Remember, when I started this journey, I could not even do a push up properly. I am still learning but check out these boot campers. 

What about sit ups? Well, I admit to being no pro here but with a little help from my munchkin, I was able to do a few. The winning amount in our time limit was around 60! Not bad, huh? (pssst…I didn’t have the winning amount)

Then came the feats of endurance! Better than a Festivus celebration, we got to run around the track carrying a Bosu over our heads. You may be thinking that is crazy but I promise you this, it was amazing to celebrate the ability to do this AND I did it!!!  I was encouraged by this wonderful group of comrades who cheered each other on to the finish line.  That is what boot camp is about…being a part of a team.  

The bottomline is this…the only competition we are up against is FAT! No matter your size, shape, or fitness level, we are bombarded by unhealthy food choices and things to keep us on the sofa. It’s okay. I have been there, done that and yes,  I am human and still do that. But there are options!  For me, Extreme Fit Boot Camp has been the motivational force to get me back on track to a healthier lifestyle. Other things that help me are Zoe’s Kitchen, WATER, and vitamins!

After the session was over, we all enjoyed items compliments of

 Zoe’s Kitchen and Vital Aid Vitamin Water

If I can do this, you can too!

After all, we are all in this battle for  better health together!
