Vote for Jennifer Harper in the Kansas City Fitness Magazine Weight Loss Challenge Summer 2010

Jennifer Harper - Kansas City Fitness Magazine Weight Loss Challenge Summer 2010

I was active in my teenage years, weighing 145. During college I shot up to 180, then to 225 lbs 3 years after I graduated. I started out trying to lose weight and went from 225 to 175. I got pregnant and gained 75 lbs. After my son was born, I lost 70 pounds, going from 250 to 180 in 6 months. The day I got to 180, I found out I was pregnant again, and gained all 70 lbs back. After my 2nd son was born in December 2008, I again went from 250 to 180 in 6 months. I hit a plateau, gained 20 lbs, and then I met Kri. I've lost 2% of bodyfat to put me around 30% but I am ready to go all the way to 15% bodyfat.

I’ve tried almost everything that there is. It started as a teenager going to a weight-loss clinic where I was prescribed multiple pills by a doctor. I tried Fen-Phen in college, followed by my first round of Weight Watchers. I tried Body for Life, Success Meals and Slim in 6. Overall I had the most weight loss with Weight Watchers, but I found myself eating too many processed foods and trying to cut too many corners in the name of saving calories. I also had great success with Body for Life, but with 2 small sons I haven't had the energy or the motivation to make myself accountable for the workouts at home. I know the only way to get fit once and for all is to reduce calories and increase exertion. I bought a Bodybugg and gave the password to my trainer. Plus I attend class 3-4 times a week.

Is Your Child A P.Y.T.?

P.Y.T. - Premier Youth Training

Is your child a P.Y.T.?? (Premier Youth Trainee)

If not, you need to sign them up quick.

We had so much fun on the morning kids fitness camp at Our Lady of the Presentation Catholic School parking lot a few weeks ago.

We played games, ran around, jumped, ducked, tagged, pulled, pushed... and many other crazy fun movements, geared to teach kids the skill of movement, which will create better athletes in teamwork, strength, endurance, leadership, nutrition, mobility...

We are proud to announce the launch of our kids camps this summer.

I know most parents already have their kids in this activity and that activity... but honestly... does having your child in more than one activity the best thing for them?

For those who have trained with me in fitness understand that I LOVE to teach and coach.

I teach and coach progressive movements/exercises for each individual for each fitness level.

This is the way coaching should be.

Kids are NOT small adults... they are kids.

And they should be coached as such.

They're still growing daily and proper applications in training should be applied.

Sports activities are awesome and I recommend all parents put their kids in sports.

So, if you just want your kids to become more active, or if you have kids or Sports Teams who need a proper, powerful progressive program, THIS is the program for them.

Just as in my adult women fitness boot camps, I will offer discounts for those who refer sports teams into my youth fitness program.

Please let me know if you have a kid(s) who would benefit from a program like this, or if you know of any school/sports teams that can benefit.


Thank you!!

Sincerely,
Coach Kri

PS - Refer sports teams to earn discounts on training for you in our busy women's boot camps or for your child in the youth camps.

Have you ever failed at something?

Have you ever failed at something?

Or a lot of things??

Check out this quick 1:16 video below.

Why do you do what you do everyday?

I do what I do because I enjoy helping people.

I work with hundreds of women who want and need help, not only with weight loss but also to let them know that there is always a way.

It's not going to be easy.

You will fail.

But you have to get back up... dust it off... and try again!!

I will venture out and continue helping people, as we add a Youth Fitness and Sports Performance program to our business model.

There aren't very many youth fitness programs in Eastern Jackson County - Kansas City that teach and coach fitness and sports performance.

I've seen a basic "daycare" which a fitness company calls a "fitness" program.

Most of these programs cater to elite high school athletes, but what about the young kids growing up who are still learning, the elementary or middle schooler... or those who don't have the talent or skill to be the next BIG thing?

I want to help those kids out.

They may be the next BIG thing, a hidden gem.

A late bloomer.

We, as parents, need to teach and coach our kids, but let them grow.

Let them fail, so they learn.

I have failed.

Have you??

Youth Fitness Camp winners and Just For Her Expo Winners in Kansas City

And the winners are....

Stay tuned...

This past Saturday was awesome!!!

We had two events in one day.

First, we had our first youth fitness and sports performance camp from 8-10 am in Lee's Summit at my corporate boot camp location catholic school of Our Lady of the Presentation.

We had a total of 12 kids show up with their moms.

We had SO much fun with hula hoops (remember those??), running, jumping, simon sez, and much more.

Every kid received their own pair of my Kri Chay's Jump Chux, so they can have fun and exercise at home.

This is only the first day of many days to come, as we launch our youth fitness and sports performance program called Premier Youth Training on Monday June 14, 2010.

Many parents are looking for activities for their kids this summer, and may have already found something.

But if they're looking for a fun, safe and effective training program for their kids to be better athletes, or just general fitness, come have them join our awesome program.

For more info, please contact me by text/call: 816-754-6692



The other event was the Just For Her Expo in Overland Park, Kansas at the Overland Park Convention Center.

I want to thank everyone who helped make it possible, all my lovely ladies in yellow, sporting the Sexy Back Boot Camps t-shirts and my trainers.

I want to also thank everyone who came to our booth.

It surprised me how many ladies told me the same thing...

They said they were bored with the usual gyms around the area, how they don't teach them anything, how they want something like what we were offering, but just couldn't find it in Johnson County.

We have grown from 12 clients in August 2008, to over 200 clients... all female clients in my community camps in Blue Springs and Lee's Summit, and my corporate camps in Lee's Summit, Independence, and Kansas City.

Our purpose in coming to Overland Park was to show Johnson County that we were out there. We are very close nearby on the Missouri side, just waiting to come over to Kansas.

But... we need your help. We need your voice and your connections.

We want to come to Kansas but are still looking for a location, or better yet, to start a corporate boot camp with your company.

If you are interested in us coming to your business/company/school/catholic school/church or whatever other organization you are involved with, please let us know.

Okay... and the winners of the drawings from our booth at the Expo are...


1) Julia Smith - Bolero Salon 30 minute massage ($50 Value)

Youth Fitness Programs with Workout at Sexy Back Boot Camps in Kansas City

Youth Fitness Programs are going to be bigger than adult fitness soon.

One in three youths is either overweight or obese. That's so sad.

Adults are the ones making the choices for kids on what they can and cannot eat.

Don't have unhealthy snacks at home, period. Simple.

That goes for you... and for them both.

Have healthy alternatives like apples, natural peanut butter, nuts, cheese...

Sexy Back Boot Camps is starting up a youth fitness program this Spring/Summer to help teach kids how to make fitness fun and healthy. Also, we will add Youth sports performance to help kids become bigger, faster, and stronger in their specific sports.

A school in the Blue Springs, Missouri school district, I found out yesterday, only has recess once per week. That's not enough time for kids to play.

Let's keep these kids moving and keep them healthy!!

Anyhow, things are moving, and they're moving fast!!

If we don't help the youth today, there may not be a healthy tomorrow.

Below is the workout we did in the beginning of this weeks training session.

Have fun!!

This Might Offend You

I'm going to start by saying that this might offend you.

That's not my goal, but the price of clarity is the risk of ruffling some feathers. Well, I believe that the fitness industry is about as efficient at providing lasting solutions for fat loss as the government is at providing solutions for a sagging economy.

They want to just provide Band Aids.

Pouring billions into broken companies doesn't un-break them.

Joining a gym and attending 2 hours a week doesn't cure the 166 hours of gluttony each week.

In fact, changing 35 years of bad habits in 12 sessions is about as likely as getting the winning lottery ticket.

To make a difference, it starts with the foundation.

Broken companies need to look at what they're fundamentally doing wrong instead of taking their bailout money and using it to keep doing stupid sh&t.

Gyms need to help people embrace new lifestyle habits instead of selling them access to equipment that has them sitting on their a<$ and pushing or pulling something for a few minutes.

Trainers need to focus more on helping clients think differently about food and exercise.

Workouts are short term.

Programs are better, but still temporary.

Changing lifestyles is the goal.

That's a big reason why I got involved in the IYCA.

It's a heck of a lot easier to educate and empower someone from the start instead of getting them to unlearn what they currently know and believe.

In fact, IYCA created a resource for parents to help them raise happy, healthy and active kids.

Well, I say it's for parents - but really, I've never met an adult that shouldn't read it.

You can see what I'm talking about here:

The Youth Obesity Solution

That project helped remind me, it all starts with a solid foundation.

If you have that, you don't have to continually try to cover up problems with Band Aids.

P.S. - Why should every adult read The Youth Obesity Solution. Three reasons:

1. You'll think differently about kids that struggle with their weight. Doesn't matter whether you have kids or not - you don't live in a vacuum.

2. Like it or not, if we really do want to cure the Obesity Epidemic, it hinges on re-infusing physical culture back into the lives of children.

3. 95% of the book's message is applicable to adults and will help you help them.
