Boot Camp Success

I completed the 6-week, Tyson Method Challenge and had fantastic results! I did the before & after fit tests and measurements and was so glad that I did. I lost 5 1/2 inches and 11 lbs! Most of it came off the hips & thighs, and that is a good thing. I can see a lot more muscle than I used to. I'm back in what I consider my ideal weight range and feel fantastic. I can do 26 push-ups instead of 5. I've really improved my eating habits - including the nutritional program was a huge part of my success. I learned a lot about the quality and quantity of food I was eating.

I had so much fun and am so happy about how I feel that I'm on my way to becoming a trainer myself! It's going well and I hope to be ready to teach by fall.

I'm posting the before/after photos to show how much of a difference the program can make even when you're reasonably fit to begin with. I tried to keep the same pose although I would have rather shown off my "new" arms! The difference I feel in strength and confidence is a lot more dramatic than photos can show. It's not ALL about looks. Really.

  3. Thanks ladies! Martha I do feel much better and found that the longer I did it, the more I craved the workout. That's the good kind of addiction I guess!
