Commit to Be Fit - 12 WEEK CHALLENGE FAQ's

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.

If you attend one of our Be Fit Classes, you will receive (5) additional points for that same workout.
You will also receive (10) points per day for following/recording your meal plan participation as prescribed. Partial meal plan participation for the day is only worth (5) points. Attendance at Fuel the Flame Support Sessions will be worth (10) points each. Signing at least 5 sponsors @ $1/mile & participation in the Be Fit Benefit Bike/Run Challenge will earn you (50) points.

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!
