ForestFit Inside Out

Author: admin 19.09.08

The early mornings are now getting a little dark and September will be the last 7am ForestFit group for this year.

However we are still going to run a ForestFit group but this time twice a week inside at 18:15 in the evening in Clausen, then on Saturday morning still getting out to Bambesch to get our outside training fix.

Only 12 places available because of the limited space at our indoor venue. register over at http://www.forestfit.com as there is only about 7 spots left.

Jess has been spending some time re-vamping her Fitness Boxing training class, ready for the autumn season.

Like ForestFit, JessBoxing will be run over a 4 week period, with 3 workouts a week.

We released this to her mailing list last week, and she has already filled 9 of the 20 places.  So you are gonna have to move fast to register for her aggression releasing, fat burning workouts

Go to JessBoxing.com for more details and to register online.

ForestFit September

Open for registrations, but only 6 places remain for the 7am group. This will probably be the last 7am group we run purely outside this year due to lack of light early morning. Get your place now at ForestFit.com

We also have our 09:30 group running again starting the 15th September. Register over at ForestFit.com

This one has been prompted by one of the most commonly asked queries about joining both ForestFit and JessBoxing!

I can’t come to XXXXXX, I am not fit enough!

I totally understand why it comes up. I appreciate there is a level of apprehension with joining a group training program when you think you are not going to be able to keep up, complete all the moves, do all the exercises etc… no one wants to be left behind, or stand out and be the one struggling the most.

I suppose it is like a mirror, we always think that someone else looks slimmer, stronger, fitter, faster than ourselves. We hate testing our theory out as well, for fear of being right!!

The problem is unless you actually test out your theory you’ll never find out that you are actually WRONG. I generally find that most people massively underestimate their physical abilities.

You have a choice right now, you can continue to fear the unknown and get more worked up by your worsening physique and physical condition, OR, you can get off your butt and prove yourself wrong. No brainer really!

ForestFit Hardcore

I didn’t want to do this, but in a moment of weakness I folded and agreed to set this up.

My summer break has just been disturbed by many of you guys desperate to join ForestFit during August.

So Jess and I have decided to run a Hardcore session twice a week in the evening on Monday and Wednesday.

Warning this is not for the faint hearted… you’ll be working hard, really hard.

Get over to ForestFit Hardcore to register today. It is a limited time offer, only 10 places available, and we start NEXT MONDAY!

I love reading some of the so called health pages on various news websites, and it becomes clear what propagates ineffective methods of fat loss and weight control.  This article at the BBC health webpage gets my juices flowing because as with many articles/studies/papers/reviews etc etc in relation to fat loss, they bear little resemblance to the real world.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7530345.stm - Hour’s exercise to lose weight.

The article states that women should be exercising 5 times a week for at least an hour to lose weight and keep it off.

Sounds like a hell of a lot of training!

Obviously these guys have never heard of interval training where 25 minutes of total workout time can produce a much greater fat burning effect.

They have probably never heard of doing resistance based routines as well, not lasting more than 40 minutes, to boost your metabolism creating a much more sustainable body shape and better structural health too.

Combine the 2 together 3 times a week and you’ll be still out the gym before these guys!

In the real world getting the most out of training is not about time spent in the gym, but more the effectiveness of the routines you perform.

In the real world myself and other top quality fitness professionals from around the globe get amazing results from short intensive routines.

In the real world we don’t have time to waste hour upon hour doing “moderate” exercise

In the real world we are never going to maintain that level of training for the rest of our lives.

Tim climbs gently off soapbox :o)

ForestFit September 09:30

Author: admin 23.07.08

Starting a week later than the 7am groups, we are running a 09:30 group again, once all the schools are back in session.

ForestFit September

Author: admin 16.07.08

So I have opened September ForestFit already. The main reason for doing it this early is because I am away for half of August and the first week in September so I want to get this rolling now to avoid to much computer time during my “holiday”

So to save my sanity and keep my wife from nagging me to get off the damn internet, I am asking you guys to sign up for ForestFit September nice and early

We start on September 9th at 07:00. and continue for 4 weeks.

We are going to try a slightly different approach with 2 groups of 15 people and split the experience/fitness levels a little to cater better for the slightly less fit members…

We already have 10 people signed up from the existing groups so only 20 places left at this point. July sold out in ONE WEEK! So I urge you to register online today to secure your place.

Go to http://www.forestfit.com to sign up right now!

ForestFit July

Author: admin 19.06.08

ForestFit June was a sell out, 20 folk are currently being trained 3 times a week by GetFit.lu

Here is what some of them are saying:

“Today’s session was great, I can already feel my body - I think the next thing I’ll be doing today is going through my drawers trying to find that muscle cream :)

“Although enjoying just everything, Forest (left) is also my favourite. Am always a bit scared of everything other than the Playground LOL, but Forest (left) gets my adrenaline (and challenging myself to get out of my comfort zone :-) ) “

“This morning was fun, it doesn’t seems as hard when there are games and races involved although its still a good workout :) My arms will be sore tomorrow though! “

“I can feel myself getting stronger each week and with that comes an increased confidence to keep pushing myself, resulting in increased satisfaction, so all in all a win-win situation. While I am by no means the fastest/strongest person in the group, I still feel like each time I have pushed myself further than what I thought myself capable of - I have never once gone home thinking “that was easy”. Which goes to show how well you have designed these workouts, since there are obviously different levels of competence within a group that have to be taken into account.”

July is now open for registration over at http://www.forestfit.com

Reserve your place today!

PS. We are not doing an August group, so this is your last chance before we break for the Summer!
