This month&#8217;s Chick is Diane Bode from our North York location. Chickerrific work, Diane &#8211; you look AMAZING!!!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fitchicks.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/aug_cotm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2988\" title=\"before and after\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fitchicks.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/aug_cotm.jpg\" alt=\"chick of the month before and after pics\" width=\"274\" height=\"238\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>FC &#8211; What made you decide to join FIT CHICKS North York Bootcamp?<\/h2>\n<p>I initially joined FIT CHICKS as a result of fellow chicks Kathy and Angie.\u00a0 They had joined the previous month. \u00a0After each work out, I would hear all about the class and I thought why not.\u00a0 I have to admit, I was worried.\u00a0 I had not exercised in years.\u00a0 While I did not look forward to working out, I had nothing to lose.\u00a0 Actually quite a bit!<\/p>\n<p>While I knew that I had put on weight, I just didn\u2019t realize how bad it was getting. \u00a0 You see yourself in photos and the reality is there are only so many times that the picture was taken at a \u201cbad angle\u201d.\u00a0 While your clothes may still fit, it doesn\u2019t mean that they fit well.<\/p>\n<h2>FC &#8211;\u00a0How did FIT CHICKS help you in reaching your goals?<\/h2>\n<p>FIT CHICKS is the only program that I have stayed with.\u00a0 The communication is fantastic.\u00a0 Our class is blessed with a wonderful <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fitchicks.ca\/about\/meet-your-chick-sergeants\">Chick Sergeant Steph<\/a>, who encourages rather than punishes.\u00a0 She always reminds us that she is there to help us not hurt us.\u00a0 Although, sometimes I do wonder\u2026 (LOL). \u00a0 The focus is not on what you can\u2019t do, but what you can.\u00a0 The instructions are given with different variations of levels so that you are able to do the exercise at your pace. I was recommended to contact\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/isatime.co.uk\/\">Isagenix United kingdom<\/a>\u00a0and get some of their products as they were included in the program. Steph also ensures that the chicks are careful as it relates to issues with shoulders and knees etc.\u00a0 This is better than the gym in so many ways.\u00a0 A Gym never contacts you to see if everything is ok if you miss a class! \u00a0 I love that the chicks are so supportive of one another.<\/p>\n<p>While my goal initially was to get through a class without feeling like I was dying. \u00a0 Now it\u2019s about feeling my best.<\/p>\n<h2>FC &#8211;\u00a0What is your fave FIT CHICKS workout? Which exercises do you love to hate?<\/h2>\n<p>I love that each workout is different.\u00a0 While I enjoy all the classes, my favorite would be tabatas.\u00a0 The class is over before you know it.\u00a0 The exercise I love to hate is the infamous running up the hill.\u00a0 It\u2019s like the \u201cRunning of the Bulls\u201d without the bulls and uphill without the benefit of a chairlift!<\/p>\n<h2>FC &#8211;\u00a0What have your results been like since joining bootcamp?<\/h2>\n<p>Since joining, I have lost 15 pounds and 10 inches.\u00a0 I no longer have to suck my tummy in and I feel better than I have in years.<\/p>\n<h2>FC &#8211;\u00a0Why would you recommend FIT CHICKS bootcamp to a girlfriend?<\/h2>\n<p>I would and have definitely recommended Fit Chicks to my girlfriends.\u00a0 In fact since joining, 3 of my friends have also joined.\u00a0 We are now a group of 6.\u00a0 I had no idea that it would be addictive.\u00a0 My only regret is not having joined sooner.<\/p>\n<h3>Want fab results like Diana&#8217;s? <a href=\"www.fitchicks.ca\/locations\">Sign up today for 8 week bootcamps starting August 8th<\/a>!<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>August Chick of the Month &nbsp; Hey Chicks!
