The Get Fit Challenge was a 3 month work-out challenge at XSport Fitness. My goals throughout the challenge were to not only win, but improve my health. My starting weight was 178 pounds, and I determined that trying to get down to 165 would be a reasonable start. It was important to for me to set my goal at a number that was both achievable and healthy.
My trainer, Mike Roncal, was my primary influence in regards to the challenge. He supported and challenged me to help me reach my goals. Additionally, he came in during times that he normally wouldn’t be at the gym. I also had help from a few of the other trainers at the gym, including Lisa Peterson. She was always there giving me new workout tips or just doing extra cardio with me if I didn’t want to do it alone. The XSport staff at the Niles gym has been amazing throughout this whole process. They have been beyond supportive, whether just needed to vent or I needed advice on the newest supplements.
The Xsport Protein and Multi-Women Vitamins have also helped me reach my goal. The protein has helped me eat in a healthier manner, because they are either my first or last meal of the day and cause me to feel full and help prevent snacking either in the morning or at night. Also, the multi-women vitamins bolstered my all around health, and helped me avoid getting sick throughout the whole entire challenge.
Not only did the challenge help me change my lifestyle into one that I plan on keeping for the rest of my life, it helped me realize that I want to become a personal trainer myself and help other people who have fallen into a similar trap that I fell into.
