We have been creating fitness challenges since 2016 and boy have we learned a lot over the past five years. We just concluded our first six week challenge for 2021 with over 70 of our clients competing for $850 in CASH prizes. The competition was so fierce, we gave away an additional $250 in prizes to 10 more clients.
Our fitness challenges boast a ton of benefits, from motivation, accountability, education, and coaching… to the more obvious benefits of setting goals and focusing intently on your nutrition and kickboxing classes for the duration of the challenge. We run 21-day and 6-week challenges and like to mix them up to keep people motivated. Our next challenge is starting July 5th and will be a 21-day Challenge. A short sprint to take us into August. If you have never participated in a fitness challenge, this is your sign to jump in and let us show you the ropes!
5 Reasons to participate in a Fitness Challenge
Most people have never taken a fitness challenge so it is understandable why you would be hesitant or nervous. Our fitness challenges are BEGINNER friendly. Here are some of the reasons you should join ours:
- Motivation: the obvious one – how hard is it to get back into a routine focusing on fitness and nutrition after 2020? There’s nothing quite like a Fitness Challenge to help you refocus and break out of bad habits. Being accountable for your kickboxing classes means that you have a reason to make it to the studio, and you know your fellow Challengers will notice if you don’t make it! Challenges give you purpose and help you set goals.
- Community: we have an amazing community of clients who lift each other up during our challenges and help people CRUSH their goals. Plus, you will make friends. Getting through a few tough classes together is a sure way to make a buddy. It’s going to happen and those new friends will help you succeed. Isn’t it time you surrounded yourself with people working to improve their physical and mental fitness?
- Great Coaching: nothing quite like some professional advice to help get faster results from what you have been doing on your own. Our team of instructors will help you become awesome kickboxers and they will give you the tools (e.g. meal plans, education, coaching) to dial in your program so your body shreds fat – fast! Our instructors also serve the role of Accountability Coaches in helping you stay focused on your goals as life tries to distract you from reaching your goals plus it helps us cheer you on all the way to the finish line.
- Plan, Structure, and Execution: We will show you how to be successful, from scheduling your classes so you have your #MeTime locked in, to working with you on your nutrition goals (teaching you about Protein, Carbs, and Healthy Fats) and show you which supplements will actually speed up your results. We add visual accountability boards in each of our locations to keep you focused on your class goals. And because we offer classes in-studio, on-zoom and on-demand, you will have #NoExcused to hit your class goals.
- Fitness Challenges are rewarding: you will feel a rush of pride when you complete your challenge. This is how we have built a “Champion” mindset within our #BestHour community. In addition to just feeling more comfortable in your clothes, each client who finishes the challenge earns a special AWARD PIN to pin on their #BestHour lanyard to celebrate their achievement.
We also awarded CASH prizes and they’re nothing to joke about! Here are the 13 people who took home the $ in the last challenge:
- 1st Place – Mark Simon – $500
- 2nd Place – Andrea Peterson – $250
- 3rd Place – Jermaine Razon – $100
The following 10 clients received $25 for their Non-Scale victories:
- Inspirational Youth – Hayden Simon
- Goal Shirt – Joshualyn Aquino
- Toning – Pruly Olson
- Comeback Queen – Anne Wilson
- Fountain of Youth – Jan Pedersen
- Power Couple – Michael & Shellie Coury
- #MeTime – Cat Almanzor Hancock
- Confidence – Jennifer Treumer
- Zoom – Trisha Benda
It’s not always about the scale or the measuring tape. Every client is on their own journey, some want to build strength and endurance, others want to get back to eating healthy and clean. We’ve had clients who have also used our fitness challenges to cut down or eliminate their dependence on soda, candy, and alcohol. Our challenges are about focusing on your health and fitness for a set period of time, usually, 3 to 6 weeks because that is how long it takes for better habits to set in.
