Elizabethtown, KY (PRWEB) April 16, 2012

Fit Yummy Mummy, a fitness company devoted to exercises for moms, has just concluded its 12 week New Year?s ?Amazing You? Transformation Challenge. After months of challenging workouts, 7 finalists have been named. Voting is now open and runs through 8:00 am EST on Friday, April 20th.

The contest started on January 16th, with over 250 women joining the Transformation Challenge hosted by Fit Yummy Mummy?s Club FYM. The challenge brought about dozens of impressive physical transformations, and over 80 women submitted their results for consideration.

?These women made a commitment to do what it takes to kick off 2012 with a new outlook on life and achieve their healthy, fit and body shaping goals by participating in this 12 week challenge experience,? said Fit Yummy Mummy owner Holly Rigsby.

It can be difficult for new moms to lose weight, but Rigsby specializes in getting results for this particular subset of women. Ultimately, her decision came down to 7 finalists who demonstrated the willpower to overcome the challenges that come with fat loss.

?As all women know,? Rigsby said, ?it can be tough to lose fat after having a child. Cardio simply doesn?t work, so these women all used strategies available in Fit Yummy Mummy products and my blog posts to banish their mommy belly for good.?

Bekah, one finalist, lost eight and a half pounds and 3.75 inches off of her belly by participating in Rigsby?s busy mom workout routines. Another, Danielle, lost five inches of belly fat.

Other finalists include Cindy (18 pounds lost, 2.75 inches off belly, 3.5 inches off hips), Lila (18 pounds lost and 6 inches off hips), Emma (19 pounds lost), and Melissa (16 pounds lost).

The final finalist, Sara, dropped 24 pounds and achieved her goal of losing her mommy belly by taking off 6.5 inches of stomach and 5.5 inches off hips.

Proud of her results, Sara explained, ?I was at a point where I was mortified about my body. [But now] I love this new lifestyle, and I am excited to continue to progress through the workouts and further challenge myself.?

New moms can struggle to lose fat in specific problem areas, including the butt, thighs, and abdominal region, but Holly Rigsby thinks it is clear from the successes of these women that this doesn?t have to be the case for all new moms.

?Many women simply do not know how to lose that mommy belly or their butt and thighs after giving birth,? Rigsby continued. ?Fit Yummy Mummy?s workouts for moms help women achieve their goals.?

Voting is open now and runs through 8 AM EST on Friday, April 20th. The top three winners will be announced later on that Friday.

Orem, UT (PRWEB) March 29, 2012

Stand up paddling, the world?s fastest growing water sport, has officially arrived at Lake Powell, with leading fitness trainer and adventure guide Melanie Webb of Sol Fitness Adventures becoming one of the first certified instructors ? the only one who is a nationally certified Personal Trainer ? in the northern Arizona / southern Utah region.

The three unique SUP offerings are the products of Webb?s combined 4 years of stand up paddle experience and 12+ years as a fitness trainer and adventure guide. ?I was hooked the first time I tried SUP, back in 2009 on the Potomac River in Maryland. This sport has something for everybody – from the super fit athlete to the newbie on water. The combination of balance and core exercise is an awesome workout, and being on the water, whether it?s the majestic redrock cliffs of Lake Powell or Santa Barbara?s Pacific Coastline, is an incredibly calming, ?Zen? experience.? Webb?s SUP Core Fitness fuses Pilates floor and Yoga exercises with the board on water; SUP Pranayama captures the essence of the calming effects of water in a paddle session with breathing meditations; and SUP Lessons teaches the basic strokes.

An innovator in the adventure travel industry, Webb is passionate about connecting travelers to their bodies and Mother Nature through exercise and mindfulness work. SUP is an additional tool to help people ?unplug? and is for all ages and fitness levels. With a wide array of SUP connections spanning both the East and West Coasts, Webb is an ambassador for Carbonerro paddles and looks forward to contributing to the growth of the fledgling SUP industry in a positive and professional way.

A recreational stand up paddler of 4 years, Webb received her Academy of Standup Paddleboard Instruction (ASI) Instructor Certification in Newport Beach after attending a course taught by the World Stand Up Paddleboard Association (WSUPA). The ASI instructor certification is a requirement of the U.S. National Park Service, the government agency that manages Lake Powell and oversees Commercial Use Authorizations (CUA?s), and recently created a stand up paddle CUA at Webb?s request. Webb expects to complete the Park Service?s CUA application procedures and be in operation by May 2012. Interested travelers are invited to keep an eye on the Sol Fitness Adventure?s website for updates and registration information and note that SUP boards and paddles will not be available for rent.

Webb is an ATHLETA Featured Athlete for 2012 and is Assistant Editor of Exercise & Fitness at AllThingsHealing.com.

Chicago, Illinois (PRWEB) December 27, 2011

A Chicago gym and fitness trainer used to be a luxury for the rich and famous. However, the average Chicago resident can afford access to training services if he or she knows where to look. Craig Kastning, Chicago fitness trainer and owner of a Chi-Town Boot Camps facility, offers his advice on getting fit locally on a budget.

?One of the most affordable ways to gain access to a Chicago weight loss and fitness trainer is to sign up for a boot camp,? he says. ?You?ll get some personalized one-on-one time with the trainer during your initial consultation, where you can ask any questions you may have, talk about your goals, and get a customized monthly meal suggestion chart. You?ll be weighed and measured, so you can chart your progress at different program milestones. Our clients really like that little bit of extra attention, so they don?t feel alienated ? like just another face in the crowd.?

He says that program participants can receive the initial Chicago fitness trainer consultation and a week of (three, one-hour) boot camp classes for just $ 1! ?We want people to experience boot camp, see the value it provides, and learn just how affordable our group classes really are,? Kastning explains. ?Most people feel extremely inspired after just one class and want to continue coming week after week to reach their weight loss or other fitness goals.?

Another way to find affordable Chicago fitness trainer sessions is to refer others or bring friends. ?Referrals are a personal trainer?s bread-and-butter. We?re willing to pay you back for every new client you bring us, so it always pays to ask around and see if anyone you know has similar goals for the coming year. At my club, I give people a month of free boot camp for every person they bring in. Every fitness club has its own promotions; all you need to do is ask.?

The last way to find a Chicago fitness trainer for less is to capitalize on the slower times. ?If you come in here the first week of January and expect to get a special rate, you?ll be sorely disappointed,? Kastning explains. The New Year?s rush is crazy every year, as fitness and health issues gain added focus in people?s resolutions and desires to have a fresh start. Yet, there can be some pretty juicy deals around the holidays. ?In December, you?ll see a last-minute push for new clients. A Chicago fitness trainer wants to enjoy the holidays knowing that they have new business coming in.? If people are willing to pay for a set number of months in full before the program begins, they will also see large savings, he adds.
