Westminster Health & Fitness Boot Camp Launches New Time Slot

March 30th, 2010

Broomfield / Westminster Fitness & Exercise Boot Camp

After high demands of incorporating an evening Fitness Boot Camp, The Dojo of Karate and Fitness will launch a new time slot starting in April 2010.

Fitness Boot Camp Instructor and Certified Personal Trainer, Javier Lozano, Jr. is the owner and Chief Instructor of The Dojo of Karate and Fitness. A premier martial arts and fitness school serving residents in the Westminster, Broomfield, and Thornton area.

“Many of the parents at our school have been requesting an evening Fitness Boot Camp, and we were just having trouble fitting it into the schedule” says Javier. “But we made a few adjustments, and were able to find a time slot.”

The new time slot will start on April 13th from 8:00pm to 8:45pm, and take place every Tuesdays and Thursdays for a 4 week session.

Their fitness program is called the Fighting Fit2 Boot Camp Fitness Program (TM), and it has been taking the country by storm.

Founder and National Director, Michael D. Massie is the creator of the F2 Fitness Boot Camp, and has been in the martial arts and fitness industry for over 25 years. He designed this boot camp with the mind-set of getting the best results in a short period of time.

What makes Fighting Fit2 Fitness Boot Camp (TM) so different from the others across the Denver Metro area?

Where do we start!

For starters, the F2 Fitness Boot Camp (TM) is taught by Javier Lozano, Jr., a former World Champion fighter and Certified Personal Trainer under AFAA. He has a solid understanding of how the muscles work, and what types of exercises will deliver results to help build lean and toned muscles. He has also trained in the martial arts for 20 years and continues to train regularly.

Under his watchful supervision, he coaches and encourages you from the beginning to the end, and takes a passion in helping you meet your fitness goals. Javier also uses an accountability system in all of his boot camps and demands only the best effort from everyone. But still encourages people to have fun.

The next thing that sets the F2 Fitness Boot Camp (TM) a notch ahead from other boot camps is their actual program.

They constantly use muscle confusion during every session. Meaning, their exercises are never the same, therefore the body can not adapt and plateau.

“Every time you come to class, we have a new workout” says Javier. “Even though it may be working the same muscle groups, the actual workout is different, and it can get other smaller muscle groups involved. Let’s face it, variety is the spice of life, and exercising is no different.”

Javier has incorporated exercises that use body-weight resistant, medicine balls, resistant bands, kettlebells, and sandbags, just to name a few.

By using all of these training tools, equipment, and more, boot campers never know what the next exercise will be.

They also use interval training during the cardio portion of their workouts. Basically, this involves you performing short bursts of exercises for a short period of time.

The beauty of interval training is that you will continue to burn calories 24-36 hours AFTER your workout.

However, probably the biggest difference that sets the Fighting Fit2 Fitness Boot Camp Program apart from the pack is their unique and powerful nutrition guide.

“Our motto is, ‘you can not out train a bad diet.’ I make sure to tell everyone that joins our boot camp to follow the guide because they will see results within 4 weeks. If they do not follow our nutrition plan, they will not see the results that others have experienced” says Javier.

The best part, they do not charge extra for the nutrition plan. This is apart of your membership when training in the F2 Fitness Boot Camp (TM)

Are you curious to see how great the Fighting Fit2 Fitness Boot Camp (TM) really is?

Javier allows everyone to try 1 free class before enrolling in a 4 week session. However, he highly recommends you signup for 3 sessions, or 12 weeks in order to get the results you desire.

Fitness Goals – Is Your Goal Timely?

March 22nd, 2010

Setting Timely Goals For Fitness

Having a Timely goal is probably one of the most important parts about setting S.M.A.R.T. goals for fitness and exercise.

We all want to lose weight, get in shape, feel better, look great in a bikini, etc.

But when?!?!

Putting an endpoint on your goal gives you a clear target.

When making Timely goals, some examples can be specific dates: “I want to lose 10 pounds by June 1st, right before Summer kicks-off.”

From there you than start working towards your goal, making sure each week you are taking the appropriate steps towards meeting it.

Another example can be “I’m going to join a Fitness Boot Camp before the end of February” would be another Timely goal.  Because, remember, joining our Boot Camp not only will help you meet your fitness goals, but you will be held accountable too.

Once you’ve created a Timely goal, you are now done with your S.M.A.R.T. Goals.

To recap…

S – Specific

M – Measurable

A – Attainable

R – Realistic

T – Timely

And there you have it… S.M.A.R.T. goals you can use to help you achieve a better, healthier, more fit, lifestyle.

What are you waiting for!?!?!

If you’re curious about our Fitness Boot Camps, we let everyone try one free class to see what they thing.  We can almost guarantee that you’ll be hooked!

Also, The Dojo of Karate services residents in the Broomfield, Westminster, Thornton, Erie, and Denver area.

Fitness Goals – Are You Being Realistic About Your Goals?

March 15th, 2010

Realistic Goals Setting - Fitness

Personally, I would love to be a professional snowboarder that traveled all over the world riding some of the biggest mountains, best snow, and get all the free swag that comes with it…

But… unfortunately that isn’t Realistic.

To set a Realistic goal it must represent an objective towards which you are both willing and capable of achieving.

Now, we’re not talking about EASY, rather do-able.

To achieve a Realistic goal, it must be challenging, however, you should be able to accomplish it.

An example of a Realistic Fitness Goal would be losing 1 pound per week, until you reach your ultimate goal of 50 pounds.

If you calculate that correctly, you should be able to Realistically surpass this goal in about 1 year.

When you are setting these Realistic goal, again, create a plan on how you’re going to do it.  This will give you an idea on how realistic it can actually be.

For instance, going back to fitness, your goal can be to join a Fitness Boot Camp for 2 days per week, and workout at the gym, or at home 3 days a week.

In addition, you would need to accompany the fitness portion of your training with a good, healthy, and balanced diet in order to lose 1 pound per week.

Remember, if the goal is just too difficult, because you may get overly ambitious, re-evaluate your goals… and than get back on track.  Don’t give up so easily.  Goals are meant to push you, but not set you back.

If you would like to join Colorado’s BEST Fitness Boot Camp call 303.920.4500 or email us at: info@TheDojoOfKarate.com.

Our Boot Camps service residents in the Broomfield, Westminster, Thornton, Erie, and Denver area.  And, our program is designed to give you results!  You’ll have fun, get a GREAT workout, and feel better about yourself.

Until Next Time!

Fitness Goals – Is Your Goal Measurable?

March 1st, 2010

Measurable Fitness Goals

Believe it or not, this is a common mistake by many goal setters.

Making your goal Measurable is quite important because this is what will continue to drive you in achieving your goals.  It’s basically your motor.  If you see progress, you will continue to push.

A great way to see if your goal is Measurable is to ask yourself these questions: How much? How many? How will I know when it is accomplished?

That way, you can see progress.

For instance, you can measure weight lose by pounds using a scale or a tape measure around the waist.

Whatever the case is, measure it!

The Dojo of Karate always Measures your goals.  Most people join our Fitness Boot Camp because they want to lose weight, get in shape, feet better, and just have more confidence in themselves.

Well, Boot Campers are always given goals by measuring their progress through Physical Fitness Training Days, taking measurements of their body, and calculating weight and body composition.  From there, you are able to establish reasonable and measurable goals because you are given a baseline.

Plus, all of our Boot Camps are put on a nutritional plan that is designed to help you meet your measurable goals.  Our motto is:

You Can’t Out Train A Bad Diet

The Dojo of Karate offers fitness and exercise classes to residents of Broomfield, Westminster, Thornton, Erie, and Denver.

If getting fit again is a goal of yours, please contact The Dojo of Karate at: 303.920.4500 or email us at: info@TheDojoOfKarate.com

Until Next Time!

Fitness Goals – Make it Specific

February 22nd, 2010

Specific Goal Setting For Fitness

Like we said before, goal setting skills are quite difficult, however, if you can get Specific with your goal, it’s a start.

When you make a Specific goal, you have a better chance of actually achieving the goal.  And, if you achieve your fitness goal, you’ve began to gain confidence and momentum to continue to move forward.

For instance, a common Specific goal is lose 10 pounds, trim 5 inches around my waist, get promoted to Director of Sales,  or something along those lines.

However, you need to remember that Specific goals should have the 5 W’s too.

  • What – What do I want to accomplish?
  • Who – Who’s involved? Your husband? Boyfriend/Girlfriend? Family? Friends?  This helps with accountability.
  • Where – Are you going to join a gym?  Or would you prefer to join a Fitness Program that holds you accountable?
  • When – When are you wanting to achieve your goal?
  • Why – Is it for a good reason?  Make sure it’s what YOU want, not someone else.

Once you’ve made a Specific goal, you need to follow through with it.  We suggest you contact The Dojo of Karate and get involved in their Fitness Boot Camp Program.

Their Boot Camp is designed to help you lose weight, get in shape, gain confidence, and give you more energy throughout the day.

More importantly, our Boot Camp is also accompanied with a nutrition program.  We are the ONLY Fitness Boot Camp in Colorado that holds you accountable to what you put into your body because our motto is as followed:

You Can’t Out Train A Bad Diet

The Dojo of Karate offers Fitness Boot Camps for residences of Broomfield, Westminster, Thornton and Denver, Colorado
