Fitbitches getting out there...


This weekend saw real breakthroughs for so many Fitbitch graduates. Gilly, who is midway through her second level one bootcamp took on her first Hove Park 5km run. Belinda, who has graduated to Level 2 went sub 30mins for the first time which is an amazing achievement. And Tanya, mum of one who started boot camp never having done much sport took on her first Triathalon in Seaford. While done at Nivea Yellowave, Thurka from Fitbitch two plus others competed in a national Beachfest. well done all of you!
If you're new to boot camp or thinking of trying one, you may think there's no way you can imagine yourself doing any of these things. But that's exactly what most of those who are now out there doing it once thought.
Fitbitch Boot Camp is not intended to be a camp that you tries to make as much money out of you as possible. The aim is to get you all up to SuperFitbitch level and wanting to do sport yourself simply for the enjoyment of it, not simply for weightloss reasons. If you start off doing it because you want to lose weight then that's good enough. But as unlikely as it may seem to some of you, as a Fitbitch graduate you will get to the point where it's about fitness too.
Aside for all of that, it's good to try new things particularly as you get older and your social circles and everything else tend to get smaller and smaller. Try one new thing and it's amazing the ripple effect that you can have on your life.
Last week, I tried sea kayaking for the first time, not sure what my next thing is going to be...paddleboarding probably. But if you live in Brighton & Hove or anywhere else for that matter there is so much on your doorstep.
