New Adventures!

3 weeks ago I took my three day Personal Trainer Certification workshop and tests. I am still waiting for results, but I feel good, even if I have to take the practical again, this is what I want to do, I love it and will do whatever it takes to reach this goal! This was one of the hardest things I have ever done, but I have learned so much and I am so excited to become a personal trainer!

2 weeks ago I took my one day Group Fitness Certification workshop and tests. I had so much fun at this workshop. It was very intense but such a great experience! I am still waiting for results for this workshop too, good thing I am patient.

Today I took another Certification class called TRX Group Suspension Training. I had such a blast learning this awesome suspension training system. Holy cow, this training is amazing and it kicks your trash, I am wasted! I can't wait to install my own Suspension Trainer in my house.

In a couple of weeks I am taking a Spin Certification Class. Spinning is one of my favorite classes so I can't wait to teach it someday!

So there you go, my new adventures in my fitness journey, what a ride! Weeeeeee!

Be Strong, Stay Strong!

One hundred miles...

A couple of weeks ago, April 28th 2012, I rode with a group of amazing women in the Front Runner Century bike ride. The ride was a metric century, which ends up being 62 miles. Well, I got it in my head that I wanted to ride a full 100 miles to say goodbye to the 100 pounds that will never be a part of my life again, so when I got home I rode another 38 to complete a full 100 miles in one day. It was an awesome experience to say the least! I also need send a shout out to my friend Kelli for riding another 38 for me too! She is a rockstar and I appreciate her support more than I can ever express. The day started out fabulous with the Triathlete group I am part of. We all rode the train out to SLC together and then once the race started we all ended up splitting up and then reunited at the finish. I had the greatest time riding with one of my closest friends Lori and my new friend Rhiannon. It was such a great feeling to cross the finish line with these two amazing woman! The

Taking a break from the scale!

I want to lose these last 25 pounds so much, especially the next 5 because I will finally hit my 100 goal but I have a mental block going on and so I have decided to step away from the scale for awhile. The scale isn't what this is about anyways. Yes, I have a healthy weight goal that I have set so the scale keeps me on track, but it is all about how I feel. I feel good and I look fabulous and I get compliments everyday and that is what matters most. So I have to tell myself that I have lost  95 POUNDS and the next 25 pounds will come off when my body is ready to let go. I just have to keep working hard, be patient and love life! 95 FLIPPING POUNDS!  That is an entire person! I am so happy about this! I will let you all know when I jump back on that scale, and I expect it will be followed by my "I LOST 100 POUNDS PARTY" ! Keep working hard everyone, you are worth it! Thanks for reading, Jena

Day five: Week one of Boot Camp Complete!

Well, I did it, I completed a full week (5 days) of boot camp at 5:30 am and I survived. I feel so good about the hard work I have put in and I can't wait to start seeing results. I just want to say that anything is possible if you put your mind to it and just do it. No excuses, just get out there and start doing the work. There are some amazing people in our class and it is great to have them to work out with everyday. We all push each other and it is nice to hear their cheers and words of encouragement. Our two trainers are awesome and encourage us to push ourselves beyond what we think we are capable of. I look forward to next week. Even though Monday is a holiday, we are still going in on Monday. We do get to sleep in a little bit, since the gym doesn't open until 7:00 am on Monday due to the holiday. I hope everyone has a great weekend. I am looking forward to going climbing at the gym tonight, a nice run in the morning, a break on Sunday, and boot camp and a climb out
