I have to steal the stage for myself a moment. I am taking my fitness and health goals to the next level. Since the middle of June, I have found a new passion for exercise and becoming more healthy. I have lost almost 30 pounds and would still like to lose about 10-15 more. I was approached by the owners and managers at the gym I belong to about becoming a Group Fitness Instructor. I was very excited at first, and then the more I thought about it, I thought I was not ready for something like this because I was not where I needed to be yet. Well, after some long midnight conversations with Tony and a lot of prayer, I decided to do it. My first certification is in Les Mills Body Pump. If you are not familiar with BodyPump check out this website: http://www.lesmills.com/ It is the original barbell fitness class. It rocks! I had my intial training this past weekend. It kicked my butt in more ways than one. I doubted myself at numerous times throughout the weekend, shed LOTS of tears and sweat and also survived and am on my way to becoming a world class fitness instructor. My journey is just beginning and I hope and pray that you will keep me in your prayers and your thoughts over the next 6 months as I dive more into the final stages of the certification process. Check out the others who are doing this also!! 4 other gals from my gym and the owner went through this training! One other gal and I were the only ones who were new to group fitness instucting.
