JIM'S STORY OF RISE UP GLORY
“In 6 weeks, I lost 26 lbs, 21 lbs of fat, 3 inches off my waist, and had to buy new clothes! I became stronger and my stamina drastically improved. Most importantly, I felt better about myself! ”
Before Results Fitness, I was trying to lose weight for a number of years. It became cyclical, where I would lose quite a bit during spring and summer only to gain it back (and sometimes more) come winter. It didn’t help I was eating a lot of my own cooking and baking - hobbies I enjoy doing on the side - since most of what was being prepared was not very healthy.
One year before becoming a Results Fitness Warrior, I was finally able to not only lose weight, but keep it off. Though I was moving in the right direction, I felt stuck. I wanted to lose more weight and just feel better. Around the same time, Results Fitness was hosting a free group class - timing could not have been better! I decided to go, became hooked after my very first class and the rest is history!
WHAT HAPPENED WITH RISE UP
I joined Results Fitness in October, 2019 and a few months later, Rise Up In 6 Weeks began. My attitude about trying this program was the same about the free group class - it was worth a try!
Going into Rise Up, I knew it would mean making changes to my eating habits, and I wasn’t sure if this was something I could follow for the full 6 weeks. What helped me was going through the Rise Up cookbook, finding recipes I liked and spending time prepping and cooking. The most important part about eating habits is following the recommended portions.
Being new to Rise Up, I wasn’t sure what to expect but much like that first class, I really got into it all; becoming addicted to daily workouts as well as trying all the different recipes in the Rise Up cookbook. The structure of the program helped me create a consistent routine where I was exercising 5-6 days/week while focusing on eating appropriate sized meals. With each passing day, I felt better and better and could see how my body was changing (clothes were become loser).
The combination of regular exercise and changes to what I was eating (and how much) really helped with not only the weight I lost, but body fat as as well. When it came to staying motivated for the full 6 weeks, the support of my fellow RF Warriors and coaches proved to be a great incentive!
In 6 weeks, I lost 26 lbs, 21 lbs of fat, 3 inches off my waist, and had to buy all new clothes)! I became stronger - there was a noticeable difference in the weights I was using before / after Rise Up - and my stamina drastically improved. Most importantly, I felt better about myself! The continued support of fellow RF Warriors and coaches has kept me going long after completing the program.
If you need some help with exercising, understanding what to eat and how much or are feeling stuck like I was, Rise Up may be exactly what you need!
