Well, in summer of 2010, a friend took, what was supposed to be, a romantic picture of both my husband and I looking over the lake at\u00a0our cottage\u00a0at sunset. When she showed it to me, I didn&#8217;t even recognize the person in the picture. I couldn&#8217;t believe the weight I had put on and\u00a0I knew at that moment that I needed to do something.\u00a0I quit smoking after\u00a020+\u00a0years on and off, changed my diet and eating habits and over just a few months I shed 9 LBS. Naturally the next step was to find a fitness program that would work for me. I have 3 kids and a full time job so I am limited on time.\u00a0I got on the internet and found FIT CHICKS.\u00a0Since that day, I have shed and additional 9 LBS\u00a0and\u00a0am almost at my goal weight. I bought a fat burner that helped me enough to meet my goals, take a look at those <a href=\"https:\/\/www.riverfronttimes.com\/newsblog\/2020\/05\/13\/best-fat-burner-for-women-that-works\">fat burners here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">How did FIT CHICKS help you in reaching your weight loss and fitness goals?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">FIT CHICKS worked with me every step of the way, encouraging\u00a0me to push a little harder and to challenge myself. My\u00a0fab Chick Sergeant\u00a0Steph gave me some homework exercises to address\u00a0shoulder issues I had\u00a0from\u00a0a skiing injury, and as a result my range of motion has improved significantly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One of my goals, other than finding my hidden abs, was to wear and look good in a bikini\u00a0(something I hadn&#8217;t done in 15 or so years&#8230;)\u00a0with my goal being summer 2011.\u00a0Well, this\u00a0February\u00a0my\u00a0husband and daughter and I went to Barbados &#8211; I wore a\u00a0bikini and I rocked it!!<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">What is your fave FIT CHICKS workout? What body toning exercises do you love to hate?<\/h2>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Favourite work out is doing sprinting tabatas &#8211; 20 seconds\u00a0full speed, 10 second\u00a0slow (4 minute intervals) &#8211; time really flies&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I love to hate\u00a0plank related exercises and pushups since I&#8217;ve never really had\u00a0much upper body strength.<\/p>\n<h2>What have your health and fitness results been like since joining FIT CHICKS bootcamp?<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Physically, my whole body shape\u00a0is changing. I am starting to notice more definition in my arms and legs. My husband has commented on my butt.. hmmmm. Personally, I sleep better,\u00a0have less pain in my lower back, and have more energy; I truly feel better and stronger then I have in years.<\/p>\n<h2>Why would you recommend FIT CHICKS bootcamp to a girlfriend?<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>FIT CHICKS works!<\/strong> With no complicated machines, it&#8217;s personal and back to basics. Your chick sergeant is there to\u00a0motivate you, push you and teach you how to\u00a0do the exercises safely and correctly. You not only get the benefit of a\u00a0network of fab ladies at all fitness levels,\u00a0encouraging\u00a0each other to get through it, you\u00a0also get\u00a0the equivalent of a\u00a0personal trainer.\u00a0\u00a0You get\u00a0ongoing support and emails with great information\u00a0on nutrition, recipes and a downloadable workout\u00a0video.\u00a0I would, and have, recommended FIT CHICKS&#8230;. 2 of my very best friends have been attending along with me and have also brought some chicks in. There is no doubt they will\u00a0appear\u00a0on your upcoming Chick of the Month nominations.<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations, Chick! You look FABULOUS!!<\/p>\n<h2>Want results like Kathy?
