Before

Congratulations Susan!

I started in late April with Audra’s Saturday bootcamp and a couple of semi-private sessions to work on form. I had some modest results and because I was feeling better, I started making better eating choices and imposed portion controls back into my diet. When I learned about the Fit Body Bootcamp, I knew this was my summer to reshape my body. I carved out a slice of “me time” in the 6 am hour and got busy. At the first dunking near the first week of June, I weighed 144 and was over 34% (to check actual #s) body fat. At the second dunking on 8/30, I weighed 132 and had lost 8.8% of my body fat. I also put on 3 lbs of muscle during those 11 weeks.

One of the biggest factors in my success was diet. I can still remember sitting on picnic benches under the oak trees, munching almonds and drinking coconut water while Audra gave us a nutritional counseling session.

Audra here. Since Susan is to humble to say it herself, I’ll say it for her! We at Red Shift Fitness Ran our very first 12-week challenge this past summer, and Susan was definitely up for the challenge! She won our first annual contest and now participates in our Bootcamp and nutrition programs FOR FREE for an entire Year! Congratulations Susan!!!

You have to check out Leanne’s story below… it’s nothing short of inspiring!!!

Kickin’ some Booty Leanne!

Audra Baker runs THE BEST boot camp in the South Bay! (Yes, I have been to many others and I promise you – hers is the best!) I have been working out with Audra for several months, and after 15 years of being almost 90 pounds overweight, I have now lost 68 of those pounds! With Audra’s motivation and expertise, I know I will lose the other 20. I now have muscle, tone, and strength in my body that I have never had before. Audra is a master at knowing how to get the maximum results for your body, and her knowledge of nutrition is extensive. She has more motivation and enthusiasm than anyone else I know. Audra has taught me so much about fitness and nutrition that I am totally confident that I will always have the tools I need to maintain my fitness and health. If you are thinking about how great it would be to get more fit (even if it’s not about weight loss) – just come and try it out. Audra will give you 100% of her effort and make every minute absolutely worth your while. You CAN do this! Come workout with us!

“I know you can do it! Come and join us!”

I am a woman in her 40’s who has cared about what I’ve looked like and has been in pretty good shape all my life, except for the past 5 years. My weight starting creeping up rapidly 17 pounds in 3 months and continued to shoot up to 40 pounds over the past 4 to 5 years. My body was not mine. I started not recognizing my reflexion in the mirror. I was simply disgusted!

It hit me in December 2008 when my husband received a beautiful photo album of our Thailand trip we had taken with our family that past November. In viewing this 44 page album, there were only a couple pictures with me in them. I saw my grand daughter with everyone but none of her and I. My feelings were hurt and I was upset with myself. I made the choice to erase all pictures with me in them as I could not stand to look at my fat face. I was embarrassed at what I had become, over weight! I was very disappointed and had no one to blame but myself. At this point, I knew I had to make a change. I want the memory of my vacations with my family and grand daughter to be complete with me present.

January 8, 2009 I started my first 6 week boot camp class with Audra. Three weeks later I joined Audra’s nutrition class. In 3 months, I took off 17 lbs and in a total of 5 months I am down 22 lbs and continuing to lose. I have dropped 2 pant sizes and a ton of inches, my body has muscle and tone where I have never seen it before. I have 10 more pounds to get to my goal and am confident I will reach it.

I have taken exercise classes, hired personal trainers and even nutritionist before but never had these results. The difference I have found in Audra’s style vs others, is that she takes a hands on approach and becomes committed to your goals! She meets with you one on one to gather information about you and what your personal goals are then follows through and assist you the entire way to achieve them.

Audra makes you feel like you are the only one she works with even though both courses I took from Audra were groups. I could not have done this without Audra’s assistance. She kept me motivated and on track. When I fell off, she was there to pick me up! Today, I look in the mirror now and can’t believe the transition. If you are looking in that mirror and disgusted like I was, you too can make the change. Come join us! You will love it, I do!
