Now, obviously I’m never going to get in shape and fit with diet alone. So today I started boot camp classes with Bridgeport Fitness. I originally heard about Renea (the owner/trainer) from my neighbor Kristina. Kristina’s son goes to the same school as Renea’s son (the same my daughter will go to in the fall as well) and she’d attended some of the classes and really liked them.

I have to say, for the first time ever, I loved the class too. They’re 30 minute HIIT classes and have a limit of 6 women (women only to boot!) per class and you do 6 circuits in 1 minute intervals.  Other than the burpees (because really, no one likes burpees) it was a lot of fun. I enjoyed not having to deal with a lot of people and I felt like I was getting more individual attention as well.

I’m signed up for 10 classes total, so it’ll be interesting to see how I feel/look in a couple of weeks.

If anyone local is interested in checking out the classes, there is currently a Groupon running right now and it is quite a great deal!
