Greetings!
Inspiration was in abundance this past month! Many of you committed to achieving your fitness goals in 2011 and February saw you well on your way. Our 5K/10K running program was in full swing. It was also the first month in our three month long national Mother Love Fitness Challenge.
Our fitness challenge in February focused on increasing our strength. You all reminded me that anything in life is possible if you are determined, want it, and set your mind to make it happen. I was inspired and awestruck by your efforts and so proud of each of you! It is also a reminder that your fittest days are very much ahead of you! With hard work and consistency, you will be reaching new heights and setting even more challenging goals.
Our MOLO Teams in action!
Interested in joining the sweaty fun? We are currently offering 7 classes/week over six days. We have two classes on Saturday mornings! Join Janae at Stanford or myself at Clfford School in Redwood City!

My Story:
I became involved with Baby Boot Camp almost three years ago after attending my "first class free." I had gained 58 pounds while pregnant with my daughter. I had always been fit and active and the weight really bothered me. My body felt completely foreign to me postpartum. In addition, I didn't have family or any "mommy" friends out here. The walls were shrinking around the house!
Then I found Baby Boot Camp. The sky was blue, birds were chirping, and my daughter was sound asleep. Does it get any better? Absolutely! I met my future best friends, found a way to laugh and enjoy squats (yes, I did say ENJOY), and became a much better mother thanks to the support and encouragement I found at Baby Boot Camp class. It simply changed my life....and the scale too! I I became a four day a week regular at class. While the pounds were dropping, my spirits were soaring. After some time as a client, I began studying for my national fitness credential so that I could become a Baby Boot Camp instructor. I grew up competing in sports, ran cross country while at University, coached high school softball and track/field and always kept active. So, I was really excited for my new endeavor! After teaching for six months, I had the opportunity to buy the franchise. I was hooked by my first push up and jump squat, so there was only one answer to that question: YES! It was simply perfect! Thanks to Baby Boot Camp I regained my inner athlete. It also made me realize that my fittest days were NOT behind me, but very much in my present and future. So, "thank you" Baby Boot Camp for changing my life for the better!
Now my days begin surrounded by incredible and inspiring women! I love Baby Boot Camp and all the positivity it has brought into my life!
Sincerely,
Christy Doyle
