What makes this Challenge different from others out there?
Jolie provides individualized planning and personal training not offered in most group challenges. Her expertise in functional fitness and nutrition provides specialist advice at a relatively minimal cost. Nutritional planning alone can begin at $250, and Strength/Cardio Personal Training with Master Trainers (comparable to Jolie, with 25 years + experience & advanced certifications) can cost between $100-$200 per hour. But the biggest difference lies in the possible results! 2011 Challenge participants lost up to 11.5% body fat and are still applying the strategies they learned with Jolie to keep it off! (Call Emily at 801-787-0823 to hear her personal success story or see Challenge 2011 Before & After pictures at befitwithjolie.blogspot.com )

Do I have to pay for the Live the Life Nutritional Guide/Meal Plans if I already have them from a previous Challenge?
No, the base fee would then be $100.00 for you!

Do you give refunds?
Once you purchase the book and the package and leave Avondale, I don’t offer refunds (with a medical emergency being the only exception). You will have plenty time to learn about and preview the plan before you buy.

What if I can’t attend the kick-off on Saturday, Feb. 4th but want to participate in the challenge?
I will offer one other weekday meeting on Monday February 6th at 8:30 am at Avondale.

Do I have to select an accountability partner for the challenge?
YES, for both packages. It must be 1 or 2 workout partners also participating in the challenge.

Where do I register for the 2012 Challenge?
Go to befitwithjolie.blogspot.com and click on CHALLENGE REGISTRATION.

How many winners will be chosen?
There will be three overall awards given at the Fit & Fab Escape Awards Night: 1) High Point Award; 2) Fuel the Flame – Deep Change Award; 3) Exceptional Accountability Partnership Award. All participants will receive special recognition awards.

Will there be a Benefit Run this year?
Not Sure. If there is a way we could do a challenge team run in an already planned benefit…we may find a way to participate through sponsors. This would be a team decision!

Sugar Detox Challenge!

2011-11-15T18:00:00.002-07:00

Hi Every Body!

Several of you have mentioned an interest in uniting for a Sugar Detox Challenge...during the holidays! Although this not an easy undertaking, it may make all the difference for you in your fitness goals and re: NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS when January 1, 2012 rolls around. YOU may not need any! If you are interested, please contact Gina at gcorry2527@hotmail.com! She would love to share details about this independent challenge.

As you are probably aware, I don't advocate participating in trendy, non-sustainable diet or exercise fads. However, I can support a periodic cleanse or detox. It might be just what is needed for a healthy living jump start. Just be wise about choosing a plan that works best for you and your body! If you are under a doctor's care for any condition, please seek her/his advice before joining others in this endeavor.

I wish you the best should you choose to contact Gina and participate!

Fit for All - Plan for Sat. Class 10/29/11

2011-10-28T19:40:00.003-06:00

Hi Fit for All Fans!

Here is the plan for your class 10/29 (tomorrow morning) AT 7:00 AM:

1. Meet at AVONDALE Academy (1417 S Lakeview Terrace, Saratoga Springs, UT)...NOT WESTLAKE HIGH SCHOOL! We will meet and workout at/around Avondale until 11/26/11 when Westlake indoor facilities become available.

2. Brittany Hester will be the instructor this week. She is currently our Thurs. night Yoga instructor...but with a bachelors degree in Dance/Exercise and several certifications, Brittany teaches a well designed - KICK BUTT class - no matter what or where she teaches!

3. The class will be a Core & Cardio class. Wear layers for an outdoor run. Bring your mat & light weights for indoor core work (abs, glutes & back).

4. Class will run from 7-8 am.

5. Bring along a spouse or friend since Fit for All is always free of charge! BUT they MUST BE REGISTERED to attend. They can register right here on the blog!

Have fun!

BE FIT News! Oct. 2011

2011-10-27T16:14:00.002-06:00

Hi Again!

Just want to make you aware of some new updates to the BE FIT with Jolie routines/procedures:

Weekly Friday Posts on the Blog:
I have heard from some who have registered for FIT for ALL Saturday classes only, that you need an email or other ways feel you are in the loop of communication. Since some don't have text plans for their phones, I will post a weekly Friday update on the blog. It will include info about what to bring for Saturday class and BE FIT news including nutritional tips/recipies, workout suggestions & inspirational thoughts. All you'll need to do isSIGN UP TO BE A FOLLOWER. That way you will get the info only if you want it!

Saturday Classes:
I've just recieved word that Westlake is NOT available for indoor training until the Saturday AFTER THANKSGIVING! So...here is the plan: We will meet at Avondale at 7 for classes until then (Note - We will start at 7 at Avondale...not 7:30). STILL...bring sweats for outdoor training in case we need to go outside for part of the workout!

T/TH 5 am class BECOMES 5:30 am BOOTCAMP Beginning November 1st!!:
Due to Popular Demand...we are going to try something new on Tues/Thurs am to meet your needs even better. Personal Coaching with LIZ from 5-5:30 for up to 4 who sign up with her the night before. This will still cost one punch since it is designed to be focused on a small group. Liz will begin the large group class at 5:30 and it will now be BOOTCAMP!

NOW is the time to COMMIT to BE FIT! Oct. 2011

2011-10-27T15:42:00.004-06:00

Hi Every BODY!

NOW is the time to Commit to BE FIT! That ever lurking holiday bulge is just waiting creep up on you. Don't let Halloween become a truly scary holiday by falling into the abyss of sugarland!

I've seen it year after year...attendance drops off in the fall and then come January 1st...many come back carrying extra weight and heavy regret! If you are in a good fitness & nutrition routine now, MAKE A PLAN to stay the course. If you have already fallen victim to the season...just BEGIN a new routine TODAY! I'll help you stay accountable. All you have to do is show up :)

WHILE I'M AWAY...Melissa or Liz WILL RUN A LIMITED CLASS SCHEDULE:
WEEK #1: MONDAY 5 am CIRCUIT only!

Register here, NOW for the Commit to Be Fit Challenge!

2011-05-03T21:42:00.004-06:00

Our Challenge Kick-Off presentation would be beneficial for EVERYONE! You are ALL invited to attend whether you choose join the challenge or not. Take advantage of this opportunity to learn about nutrition and exercise principles for EVERY body (women AND men) designed to support you in your fitness goals for life.

Items can be purchased ala carte. For example, you could buy the nutrition plan or the Commit to Be Fit workout plan to implement on your own, without ever even attending a class!

Commit to Be Fit - 12 WEEK CHALLENGE FAQ's

2011-05-02T12:29:00.002-06:00

The Commit to Be Fit - 12 Week Challenge kick off is only 5 days away! This special event celebrates 1 year and 100 Members! THANK YOU for your continued support! I know that many of you still have questions about the details. Here are a few answers to questions that have been frequently asked:

Q: Do I have to attend the Kick Off to Commit on Saturday, May 7th to join the challenge?
A: No, but you'll definitely miss out! Not only will you miss the Kristi Approved team and important details of the challenge, you'll miss the open options available from 9-10. This is where you could get baseline weight & measurements, a before photo, and hair & make-up Tips for Hot Mamas from professional photo shoot stylist - Leisa Higbee just in time for Mother's Day! (We will have a drawing at the beginning of our 6:30 am work out for anyone interested in winning the opportunity to be the Leisa's model for the day.) However, If you can't make it, Jolie will provide a shortened version of the kick off on Monday morning, May 9th at Avondale (immediately after the 8 AM Strength Circuit Class).

Q: Will we miss out on our Saturday work out?
A: NO! Jolie will provide the 6:30-7:30 am workout - beginning at Westlake High School. We will transition over to Avondale (either drive or run) to begin the kick off presentation at 8:00 am.

Q: Do I need to bring a snack since I may be starving after the work out?
A: Kristi, Trish & I will provide a Kristi Approved meal (apple, string cheese & water:) but you are welcome to bring anything you'd like to re-hydrate and replenish so you can focus for the hour presentation.

Q: Will there be any prizes for participants?
A: Yes! I am working on getting prizes set for a Highest Points Winner, an Ignite the Fire Winner, and an I've changed my Life Winner. Each will win a make over & head shot photo shoot as well as other prizes I can't reveal at this time :) EVERYONE will receive a Trainer's Award - based on personal goals and triumphs!

COMMIT to BE FIT...even during the holidays!

2010-11-15T18:17:00.008-07:00

Hi Everyone :)

Wow, it has been a LONG time since my last post. As I reflect upon reasons for the delay, my thoughts center on a deeply impactful event that occured this past month. A dear friend and fitness pro was hit by another driver in a tragic, weather related accident that claimed two lives. Fortunately, her three children and husband were not critically harmed, but the collision left her in critical condition. In fact, the neurosurgeon called in for this emergency, said he had never seen a spine so dislocated without rendering the patient paralyzed. He explained to her family that in this unprecidented case, it would be his job to attempt to set the vertebra back in place without causing such paralysis. My friend was then given medication that would allow her to be awake during the surgery, without memory of the pain. Unbelievably, she was able to guide the surgeon in his work and through a series of miracles, she walked out of the hospital with full functionality of her entire body.

I guess the other part of her story that so deeply touched me came the day after her accident. My family and I went to visit her and something she said has been on my mind since. She said she'd been thinking about all of the work we had done together to strengthen the muscles in her neck, back, and core - and suggested it may have helped save her life. I guess I have never quite thought about weight lifting as something that could literally save my life, but it sure makes sense now. We never know when we will need "muscle" to protect the most vital parts of our bodies...and if that day ever comes for me, I am determined to do all I can to be prepared.

That said, I want to draw a connection to the wonderful time of year that is upon us. I look forward to the holidays every year...but with all of the parties, and food, and family memories, and food, and busyness, and food...it is easy to forget why I must not allow it all to interfere with fitness. I encourage you to remember the words spoken by my dear friend...and choose to make your training a priority - even when you might have every excuse to take a "holiday break". The kind of training my friend spoke of wasn't periodic. It wasn't something she did when it was convenient. It was something she made time for...5-6 days each week. This kind of hard work follows the law of the harvest: we reap what we sow! If we choose to sow our "seeds" early enough in the cycle, and are willing to do the tedious work all along the way, the harvest will bless our lives! Likewise, our bodies will serve us well if we choose make the investment early and often!

I wish you all the most memorable holidays of your lives...partially because you chose not to be the one RE-committing to exercise on January 1st! Here's to a harvest of health and wellness so you can enjoy your lives and your families for a LONG, long time to come!

No FIT FOR ALL this Saturday 8/6!

2010-08-06T19:28:00.002-06:00

Hi Be Fit Club,

Several of you have indicated that you will be out of town this Saturday or involved in races and won't be able to attend Fit For All. As a result, I've decided to cancel it for this week only at this point.

Please offer feedback either verbally or via email, to let me know if you would like to see this class continue, if I should consider changing the format to a "track" or other type work out to meet your needs, or if you plan to attend after summer vacations and life is more structured with the kids back in school :) I had initially planned offer this free class to provide an opportunity for everyone to join in...but attendance has led me to question if there is a need. Let me know what you think!

See you Monday morning at 6 am Boot Camp!

Loving Life!!

2010-07-31T14:57:00.006-06:00

Hi Everyone!

I'm home from Maui...and to make a long story short, it was amazing! I had many opportunities to enjoy time with Greg as we took in the beauty all around us. In the midst of those precious moments, I experienced a mix of feelings - feelings of joy that I was still happily married to my soul mate and best friend - and feelings of trepidation, with my 50th birthday looming on the horizon. I couldn't help but reflect on how my life has evolved. I can honestly say I am grateful for the good times, and for the times I may have once considered "bad". I know now, that it is during the struggle that I can achieve the greatest growth toward the potential "me" I have experienced glimpses of every now and then. I also realize that growing older is a beautiful opportunity to take the wisdom we have painstakingly earned, and apply it as we face future challenges and continue to choose to grow. It is in that choice that we are blessed.

As I was filling out paperwork to begin a spa day Greg had arranged for my birthday, the receptionist asked if I was celebrating anything special. I replied that it was my 50th birthday - and she said, "How do you do it? You look at least 15 years younger than you are!" She took me by surprise - as I happened to be feeling at least 15 years older - probably due to my struggle to adjust to the time change. As I stumbled over my words to try to accept her compliment, I found myself saying..."I love my life, I guess." I haven't really ever spoken those words out loud to anyone before, but it felt so genuine. Later in the week I ran across a poem that would have better expressed the depth of my feelings in that moment...

Loving This Life...
Is about celebrating the moment
and that we're not guaranteed
or owed another day
and how cool it is that what we hide
can actually be the fuel towards our glory
and that it's not so bad being proven wrong.

Loving This Life...
Is about welcoming the blind turn
and the possibility that
there's no such thing as coincidence
and that empathy is incredibly beautiful
and that it's never too late
to pick up a guitar or a paintbrush
or to make an amend or to make a new friend.

Loving This Life...
Could be about rediscovering
the love of your life
or igniting
a new passion
or shape shifting
from a dreamer into a doer
or savoring the caress
of a love long gone.

Loving This Life...
Means whatever it is you want it to mean
because loving this life is a celebration
of you and your path, of the good and the bad,
of your choice to embrace all that is offered.
Loving This life...
Means never knowing how long we will be permitted to linger
but choosing to live in the moment anyway.

We have so much to celebrate! I look forward to the bright future we share in health and wellness...together.

See you soon as we resume our boot camp workouts on Monday and Wednesday @ 6 am and Saturday @ 7am at Lakeside Lodge!

Warmly,

Jolie

Change Your Thoughts...Change Your Life!

2010-07-02T15:32:00.002-06:00

Periodically, I will post prescriptions that might support you in your quest for change and life long fitness. Here's one of my favs by Jane Powell:

What you think and say determines your personal power!

Do you frequently hear yourself saying things like, “I can’t do that,” “It’s beyond me,” or, “I am not the person for this task?” If you express negativity often enough, your mind will believe it as truth. It becomes a self -fulfilling prophecy and the longer it goes on the more you will be driven by false beliefs. You’ll be left feeling powerless and out of control.

Stop this vicious cycle!

Take notice of your inner chatter and vow to transform the “can’ts” into “cans.” Your internal voice must support you and give you reason to believe in yourself. It must foster respect and drive your potential. You are a capable person, capable of endless possibilities.

Harness your negative thoughts today and make the transformation that destines you to greatness.

Enjoy your weekend...and celebrate change!

I want to publicly thank these instructors for sharing their time and talents and for joining me in this important cause: to provide a stress relieving opportunity for our Saratoga Springs Community as we come together in the name of fun & fitness!

* FOUNDATIONS OF FITNESS CLASS (Mon/Wed 7:30 am class) is currently CANCELLED until further notice. I'd like to change this class to Water Aerobics at 8:30 on Fridays only for the rest of the summer if there is enough interest.

No Class on Saturday June 12

2010-06-11T07:36:00.002-06:00

Hi Friends,
There will be no class on Saturday June 12 because it is the Saratoga Splash 5k run at 7:00 am. I want to encourage community involvement so I hope many of you will be able to walk/run the race and support our amazing city!

Thanks! See you on Monday at 6:00 am for Boot Camp!

Jolie

Fit For All - Saturday Class is Free!

2010-05-10T21:55:00.002-06:00

Just a reminder that FIT FOR ALL is just that...a fitness class fit for everyone! It is free too! Bring a friend...but be sure you are registered on line. This would be a great time to get to know your neighbors as you walk or jog together to or from the Lodge. Get in a cardio work out before this Pilates based class...where you will enjoy a great core work out designed to increase flexibility and stability. It IS the foundation of fitness!

Please Bring:
Water...and a yoga mat or towel! That's it! (Stability balls and weights will not be needed for this class.)

If you are planning to walk or jog before class, you could drive to the Lodge, leave the mat in the car and leave from there. Just be sure to be in the studio five minutes before 7:00 AM so we can begin class on time!

Ignite The Fire!
Jolie

Off to a Great Start!

2010-05-10T20:15:00.003-06:00

Thanks to all who have made the commitment to Be Fit with me! We are off to a great start at Lakeside Lodge. I can't help but feel inspired by the view of the early morning sunrise and empowered by the energy you all bring to our classes. Not to mention, the added bonus of the two minute drive to get to the studio! I couldn't ask for a more perfect scenario.

As you plan your schedule to attend classes this week, I'd like you to keep a few things in mind to achieve maximum results:

* In order to realize improvements in strength and cardiovascular fitness, you will need to engage in moderate to intense exercise (30-60 minutes) at least 4 days per week. Three days will maintain your current fitness level. Four days will minimally improve your fitness level and five-six days will help you to achieve maximum results.

* Plan for one day of rest.

* Hydrate...consistently, throughout the day. Try to drink at least half of your body weight in ounces every day. Carry a water bottle and refill it as needed to achieve this goal.

* Be sure your shoes are in good condition. I try to replace my shoes at least every six months. Experience has taught me that they will break down on the inside long before they break down on the outside...and good foot support is the foundation of a good workout!

* Although cardiovascular AND strength training are both important components of fitness, when time restraints require you to choose - strength training is more important to include than cardio! Here is the reason why: As you build lean muscle mass, you will raise your metabolism and will in turn burn more calories throughout the day - even at rest! Although cardio exercise (running, biking, elliptical, etc.) most likely requires a higher caloric burn during the exercise, the burn stops when the exercise is over. Strength training will always promote an "after burn" - which will ultimately raise your metabolism and help you to maintain a healthy weight.

Finally, just a reminder that FIT FOR ALL (the ONLY Saturday class offered at 7:00 AM) is FREE and is intended to build community! Everyone is welcome - just be sure you are registered on line. Here's an idea: Get a group of friends together and walk or jog to class! FIT FOR ALL is a Pilates based work out designed to develop abdominal/core strength and flexibility - another critical component of fitness. This class will develop your core foundation of fitness, offer a good stretch...and some great company! Help me get the word out by inviting a friend to join you this week!

Best wishes this week as you begin to...IGNITE THE FIRE WITHIN!

It has been my privilege to help others make a serious commitment to lifelong fitness for over twenty eight years. My experience has given me perspective on the trends and the truths of the fitness industry. Although many “fads” have come and gone, I firmly believe that physical fitness can improve the quality of life for anyone willing to make the commitment. I have enjoyed an affiliation with two reputable health & fitness organizations throughout a major portion of my career - Colorado Athletic Clubs for sixteen years and Gold’s Gym American Fork since 2002. I have been honored to teach and work with many other dedicated professionals in the industry, and have made a personal commitment to serve as a wellness strategist for many clients in my classes. For me, health and wellness in all aspects of life is not only a personal commitment, it is my passion!
