Was talking to a client who has done veeeery well with our Personal Training services. She's dropped 42 pounds since June and she wants to stay on track. At first, she was going to lock herself in her house away from her family and friends. Without me saying a word -- just the look on my face -- she switched to maybe she'll go over to her mother's house, but she's not eating anything but her salmon and broccoli.

When she and I became friends on Facebook, I revealed to her that I LOOOOVE the music that she and her sisters

BNFit Bootcamp is a group fitness program designed to help you train hard and safely. I combine (1) free weights and barbells, (2) body weight exercises, (3) resistance bands, (4) TRX Core Training and (5) high-performance cardio — namely step aerobics, running, cycle, Plyometrics (jump training) and jump ropes  — taking only calculated rests to achieve maximum results. Be ready for anything creative — workouts are never routine. You’ll be challenged physically and mentally.  Your resting heartrate will decrease — meaning your heart will function more efficiently. All fitness levels are welcome; all exercises
