7 pounds, 2 pant sizes and 3 and ½ overall inches in just 4 weeks – I am a happy person today. My motivation to continue this journey (Get Some Workout of Her – 12 Week Fitness Challenge)  is still very high and the support that I am receiving from many people around me is amazing.   Bryan and Stephanie would still like to see me increase my calories during the day – so I need to figure out how to do that. It seems so strange for someone to say that I need to eat more – but I... Keep reading

I had a very successful weekend at the gym – and I have a love in my life. That love is that arc trainer. A few weeks ago, I was able to about 20 minutes on the arc trainer and then have to move onto another piece of equipment. I am now able to do 50 minutes at a good pace and feel great about it afterwards. Late last week, I met with Stephanie again. Stephanie Kugler owns Healthy Balance Nutrition Counseling and has been working with me along with Bryan. On Thursday, Stephanie reviewed my food... Keep reading

It has been three weeks since I officially started my fitness journey with Bryan Nunziato for the Synergy Fitness and Nutrition and Talk 1300 Get Some Workout Of Her Fitness Challenge. I am pleased to report that I have lost another 2 pounds, making it a total of 5. In addition, my overall energy level has greatly increased, I am finding myself responding better under pressure and stress and I remain just as motivated as I did when I started this journey. Those around me are noticing the difference... Keep reading

I was so glad to be back at the gym today – although I did cardio over the long weekend, I missed having my sessions with Bryan. I did have all three sessions last week – but the last was on Thursday rather than Friday, because I was in a wedding on Friday. The normal Monday session was moved to today (Tuesday) – because of the holiday– so when I got there today I was ready for a workout. Bryan had me do some new exercises today – and although they were rigorous – they felt really good.... Keep reading

Today was my third official workout with Bryan Nunziato.  Bryan owns Synergy Fitness and Nutrition and if you missed my previous blogs, I will be working with Bryan for 12 weeks, 3 personal training sessions a week, and at least 3 days of additional cardio work. We are calling this the “Get Some Workout of Her” 12 Week Fitness Challenge.   Bryan changed some of the exercises today and they were great. They were vigorous but it was great.  I have to admit though, the squat thrusts with the... Keep reading

I had my second training session with Bryan today. It was harder today I think, because he didn’t have to spend the time explaining the workout, so I had to go through them at the speed he set for me (only 30 seconds between each). After the hour long training session he suggested I try out their Pilates class. I had a tough time remembering to keep my stomach in, but the instructor T was great about reminding me. After that, I still had to do my cardio, afterwards my clothes were totally soaked,... Keep reading

  Today was my first “official” workout with Bryan and although I am excited to tell you about it I should back up a little bit. Yesterday when I was at Omni Fitness, Bryan had me try out the  Arc Trainer for the first time. That machine is amazing! My heart was pumping, I was sweating like crazy and I just felt good. That will be a machine that I will use on a regular basis on this program.   Bryan has documented everything that I will be doing and the methodology behind it on his blog and... Keep reading

I had my official fitness assessment today with Bryan from Synergy Fitness and Nutrition. This assessment will give Bryan a baseline to work from (yikes – the numbers are scary!) and aid him in creating the best workout for me.   My first workout based on the assessment is Wednesday, but I have been increasing my cardio on my own as well. That is something I will have to continue with in order to get the most out of this. I got up at 6:30am on Saturday and went to Omni Fitness Center and did... Keep reading
