POUNDS vs INCHES

    A boot camp  student, of mine, sent me a wonderful article by LaRue E. Cook , BS,  MHA, JD. The article was called "Pounds vs Inches". In this article, he was explaining how his clients always claimed that they wanted to lose weight, when inches and fat was really what they were having a problem with. I was really interested in this article because I often times find myself dealing with this same dilemma.
    One of the things that I often tell my students is this, " If you want to lose weight, chop your leg off and you'll be around 50 pounds lighter. But now you have 2 problems, you only have 1 leg and you're still fat ". Weight is not the issue, unless you're in some type of competition where you are required to weigh a certain amount. No one knows your weight and no one cares what it is. Another saying that I use with my students is, " I bet that no one has ever walked up to you and said that you weigh good ". They may have said that you looked good but that has nothing to do with weight, that has everything to do with body composition.
   Please look up this article by LaRue E. Cook and get a true understanding of pounds vs inches. Pounds are the blame for many peoples problems when inches are the real culprit.

I have been at Rage now for just over a year...I remember when I first met Kenny and I asked him if he would kick my butt and be like Julian off of the biggest loser...I have to say he is much better. He cares, he motivates, he encourages, he trains with his heart and you feel it every class. He sees your potential before you do and he helps you to achieve it!
I have seen not only my body change but my mind and soul also. I look better and I feel better. I have learned to embrace pain...and love it! I love this new heathy addiction.
Thank you Kenny, you are amazing!

Tracy's RAGE Experience

I started going to Rage Fitness in February of '10. Originally I was going to get into shape and started with Kenny's bootcamp. I have continued on with additional classes and thoroughly enjoy it. The classes have a mix of people at all different fitness levels so everyone always fits in. The classes are always challenging, whether young or old, male or female everyone always gets a good workout. Kenny keeps each class unique so I never get bored. An added benefit that I didn't expect was the camaraderie within the class. I have made new friends who feel like a second family to me. It's nice to have the support from Kenny and my fellow classmates that make you feel like you need to go because you will be missed if you aren't there. I would highly recommend Rage Fitness to everyone!
