My Experience – Initially I was very intimidated by this class because of the many different moves and the speed at which the students were moving. It is very well choreographed and everyone is in sync with the instructor.  In the gym I go to there are more woman then men in the class and I did not want look ridiculous in front of the ladies.

“Humility is the key to maturity and personal growth without it you sit on the sidelines and watch those around you accomplishing your goals.”

I swallowed my pride and started taking the classes. At first it felt awkward and intimidating but after a few classes I started to remember the steps, the kicks, the moves my level of intensity increased and before I know it I was unleashing a furry of endorphins, increasing my endurance and metabolic rate and burning 450 – 500 calories per class.

I credit my current dramatic weight loss gains to the Body Combat and Cardio Boxing classes. I take classes 2 days a week combined with my weight training…I absolutely love those classes.  For those of you who have been working out for a period of time and have plateaued in their weight loss goals I would highly recommend them to anyone. They will kick start their metabolism again and dramatically break through your plateau. It’s the most exhilarating class you will ever take.
