Slimmer Body, Fatter Wallet In 2020?

Image
As we get a jump start on the new decade, we think of our New Year's Resolutions - - Resolutions?  I prefer New Year's INTENTIONS.  With that, the number one thing we hear is losing weight, getting fit or some other health kick👟👟.  With the intention to start a healthier you why not take those lost pounds and add them to your wallet? With the rise in internet sales, there are a lot of great cash back sites like Rakuten, MyPoints , EBates to name a few.  These sites offer points or cash back on each purchase made from 1000s of stores-majority being from online purchases.  But what about the in-store purchases? I decided to try Ibotta .  This is an app with similar perks to the above sites but also offers in-store purchase cash back at places like Sprouts, Whole Foods, Target, King Soopers, and more!  This was the first I have found to offer cash back on grocery items, restaurants, alcohol, and more in-store/in-app purchases.  I average a...

Warriors for the Warrior Classic

With 10 days left until the two day event in Loveland, CO, The Gym Miss Fits and Mayhem continue to train like champs!  The eight bikini girls and a few men's physique competitors are said to be starting to get nervous and excited.  Two-thirds of this group is new to the stage.  The Gym Family looks forward to seeing them strut their stuff on the catwalk including our two 9 News Bikini Body After Baby Series moms, Eva & Victoria [appropriately dubbed Team Viva!]. Eva & Victoria are furiously sweating off those last few pounds for their big debut.  They began training at The Gym earlier this year with trainer & coach, Chris Williamson.  It has been an amazing journey to watch these ladies grow self confidence and enjoy their new bodies.  Even more admirable is that their husbands were along side them the whole way.  That's right!  These men came to boot camp, training sessions, and posing classes.  Way to go men! Stay tuned f...

The Gym is 100lbs Lighter

Image
Getting prepared for a competition is always hard work no matter who you are. Not to mention we are all doing it for different reasons-get in shape, lose weight, reach a goal, etc. For Angie Dangler and Julie Gasca, it was so much more than just losing weight or being a part of the 9news Bikini Body After Baby Series. These two mothers signed up early this year with a goal set in their head. Angie said, "I had in my mind 25lbs was a good goal. . .". She found herself being content with the number and never thought she would have lost the 40lbs. to get on stage not as an agreed bikini competitor but as a figure competitor at the NPC Warrior classic. 9News with Angie: supported by Miss Fits & Mayhem Julie Gasca found a new vote of confidence in her 60lbs. lighter body as she strutted the catwalk in her custom altered bikini by Top Her Couture . Both of these women were motivated everyday of months of training and dieting by their coach, Chris Williamson, their f...

Redefining Fitness Everywhere

Image
Sure, most of us join a gym to stay healthy, fit, perhaps just meet knew people, or take new classes.   Usually gyms are defined as only that- a gym! They are active full of weights and people; but this is not entirely true of The Gym off South Broadway in Denver , CO . The Gym is more than the weights you lift or the classes you take.   It is a family of motivational, inspiring, and dedicated men and women.   “Each day brings new opportunities to positively influence and change someone’s life,” says owner and trainer, Chris Williamson.   This statement sets the entire tone of The Gym.   Yes, they train hard, play harder, and in the end it is about whom they inspired along the way not the trophies on the shelves.   This gym is redefining fitness everywhere! You are sure to meet a lot of friendly faces when you come in for a free week of classes and weights.   There is no need to be intimidated or shy.   There are plenty of men and wome...

New Found Confidence

Image
After her 17 week journey through losing over 50 pounds and competing in an NPC bikini competition, Lisa Poole found the adventure has awakened so much more than her bikini body.  She has found a confidence and beauty she forgot was there.  She decided to make other changes and started her own business while being a loving wife and mother of two.  She told me it was "totally not like her" and seems very excited to have started with Rodan & Fields Dermatologists.  Through learning how to eat right, exercise, and have an all around support system through The Gym & their partners; Lisa unravelled qualities that had hidden under her just had a baby body.  If you are interested in opening your inner doors, please contact, Chris Williamson for his Mommie Makeover.  If interested in business opportunities as well as events with Rodan & Fields, please contact Lisa Poole .  As Lisa would say, "Hugs 'N' High Fives".  http://www.gym303.co...
