DumBell Success Stories: What Success Means to Us

Each Saturday, DumBell Fitness features a success story from one of our Boot Camps. But today, we wanted to share with you what success really means to us.

Being healthy is so much more than just the number on the scale! Truly, strong is the new skinny. What we love to see are Boot Campers who used to loathe running around the block now competing in triathlons and marathons. We love to see women in class deciding to do the agility course three times instead of two. We love to watch women change the way they carry themselves when exercise has given them their confidence back.

We love seeing recruits get to the point where working out is part of their daily lifestyle. It becomes a habit, to the point that you actually feel a difference in your body and in your mood on the days that you work out (or don't work out!).

Living a healthy lifestyle is contagious. Boot Campers take their in-class success and drill it down into their family by coaching their kids sports teams and preparing healthier meals for their families. Instead of family outings revolving around eating at a favorite restaurant, they start taking their boogie boards to the beach or hiking on the weekends. It's proven that exercise can improve your mood and feeling of well-being, making you a better parent, a better spouse, and a better co-worker.

So many of our Boot Campers have overcome amazing obstacles, physically and mentally. It inspires us everyday, and we're thrilled to be able to share them with you. Stay tuned for more success stories in the coming weeks!
