Let me show you the numbers:

30 people . . . . 210 pounds GONE . . . . 74 inches of belly fat GONE. . . . INCREDIBLE!

That’s an average of 8 pounds and 2.75 inches of belly fat per person. Awesome, huh?!

Impressive bunch, huh?!?!

Because the last two Rapid Fat Loss Programs sold out so fast and a bunch of you have been sitting on the waiting list (thank you for your patience!!), I wanted to get this Winter program up and running asap. So here ya go . . . . Details for my Winter 4 Week Rapid Fat Loss Program:

This program will begin with a Kick Off Meeting on Wednesday, January 18th. We will have Initial Assessments Sunday, January 22nd. You will officially begin the program Monday, January 23rd. We will end with Final Assessments on Sunday, February 19th.

WHAT TO EXPECT during your 4 Week Rapid Fat Loss Program:

• 6-20 lbs of weight loss
• 2-4 inches off your waist
• Firmer arms, legs and buns
• Flatter belly / Less bloat / Smaller waist
• A metabolic boost that causes you to burn more calories while resting and sleeping
• Energy through the roof
• Improved mood, sleep, sex drive

As always, I have some expectations of you if you commit to this program. Your success very much depends on your dedication and discipline.

WHAT I EXPECT OF YOU during your 4 Week Rapid Fat Loss Program:

1. You will commit to exercising 5 days a week. This includes 3 group training sessions (as seen in above video) with Sync Fitness and 2 cardio sessions on your own. Alternatively, you may attend as many as 5 sessions a week with Sync Fitness.

Group Training Sessions with Sync Fitness will take place:
Monday/Wednesday/Friday 6-6:45AM

Saturdays at 8-8:45AM

All sessions will take place at The Fitness Lab(3410 Stone Way North, Seattle 98103) in Wallingford.

WHAT YOU’LL GET during our 4 Week Rapid Fat Loss Program:

• ASSESSMENTS: This is the fun stuff. I will take and compile your before and after data and photos. I will measure and track your weight, and waist circumference measurements. I know, this doesn’t sound fun. But, trust me, when you compare them end numbers to the beginning numbers, you’ll think it’s the best game ever! VALUE = $187
• STRENGTH TRAINING and HIIT SESSIONS: I will give you an exercise program that maximizes your workout time to make you a lean, mean calorie burning machine. You’ll meet with us for awesome group workouts 3 days a week. No more guessing what exercises to do! I will also make sure that you’re performing exercises in a safe way to minimize the risk of injury and blast calories like never before. VALUE = $247
• CARDIO WORKOUTS: I will show you ways to make cardio fly by and burn more calories that you ever thought possible. I’ll even teach you some special tricks to burn more calories in your sleep! VALUE = $127
• NUTRITION:You know what you should eat, but you just haven’t taken the time and effort to clean up your diet, right? I’ll give you a specific meal plan to follow with a ton of recipes. Nothing crazy or super restrictive – just good, healthy, clean eating. VALUE = $287
• SUPPORT: This is the best part of the program. This piece of the weight loss puzzle will be huge in your success – promise! You will have unlimited access to me in person and via phone and email. Additionally, there will be surprises/education/support that will ensure that you will have amazing results over these 4 weeks. VALUE = $397

BONUSES for 4 Week RFL participants:

• GROCERY STORE TOUR:On Saturday, Jan 21st, I will take you roaming through the store to point out the good, the bad and the ugly while grocery shopping. In addition to being super fun, this will be very eye opening.  VALUE = $97
• MASSAGE:I’m partnering with Kathy J Rose of Shift Massage to offer you discounted massage for the duration of the RFP program. Kathy is offering $25 off all massage services for the entire month (up to one massage a week!) She is also extending her discount to offer $10 to all services for anyone in your family during this time.  VALUE = $100

• PRIZES:Yup, for those of you who are a little competitive! Here’s what you’ll be sweating for:

$200 to Nordstrom for new skinny jeans (cause you’re gonna need them!)
$100 to Lululemon for some hot new workout gear
$50 to Lucy for some new play/sweat clothes
VALUE = the glory of fame and hot new clothes = PRICELESS!

Are you ready to sign up yet?!?!

As you can see this program is worth over $1400. But I want to be keep the costs as low as possible for each one of you, just as you requested. The 4 Week Rapid Fat Loss Program including everything above is just $347. If you are a current Boot Camper (on the 3 day a week plan), your cost is $147. You would spend twice as much signing up for 4 weeks of personal training, so this is a really great deal. I hope you don’t let it pass you by. If you are really committed to changing your body in 2012, do not hesitate.

You can kick off the New Year lighter and leaner than ever or just as you are now – which would you prefer?

WHAT PAST PARTICIPANTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE 4 WEEK RAPID FAT LOSS PROGRAM:

“Sara’s programs have taught me more and empowered me more to take care of myself than months or years of participating in other diet programs (and I have tried them all). The program provides moral support, helpful suggestions, a supportive community and a boot camp class that flies by, is fun and shows results in 2 weeks! Although I still need to work on continuing the progress I’ve made now that the program is over, I do feel that I now have habits that are permanent and will enable me to be successful in this lifelong journey. I highly recommend RFL or TFL and her boot camp classes – it can and will change your life. In 4 weeks I lost 11 pounds and 3.7 inches!” Lisa J, 40, Accountant

“I signed up for Sara’s spring 2011 rapid fat loss program and really had no idea what to expect. I knew I was completely terrified, but that was about it. And then the slow weight loss at first was a little disconcerting. However, the end result of losing over 11 lbs and 4 inches off my belly was unbelievable! You know how you go through something and you don’t really notice – a lot like those few years after the baby comes and your ass just grows and grows and all of a sudden you catch a glimpse of it in a window at the mall and think WOW! – well that’s kind of the feeling I had when I got on the scale on our last day of the program. At the beginning Sara does what you will think is cruel and unusual punishment by putting you on the scale, measuring your belly and, gasp!, taking pictures of you from the front and side, but then you see it at the end and your hard work shows! Even the people that didn’t a whole lot commented on how their clothes fit better from the boot camp classes. And for me, it was the boot camp classes that were key (I’m a convert and will be continuing the classes) – yes, the nutrition guidance; grocery store tour; weekly check-ins; assessment booklet; secret Facebook page; and constant water reminders were all great, but the boot camp classes are a full body workout, fun and I ended up really enjoying the camaraderie with the other people in the program. Do it!” Shannon M, 42, Sales Rep

“With RFL I feel like I have finally found the tools I need to get healthy and STAY healthy! I learned how to eat right, and it’s not even that hard. I discovered that I can do a 6 a.m. workout and love it! Most importantly I learned that today is the day to start being healthy. Not tomorrow, not next week. TODAY!” Virginia D, 38, Preschool Teacher

“I’m 56, overweight and wanted to change, but felt I’d tried everything when I read about the Rapid Fat Loss boot camp starting at Sync Fitness. Since I’ve never done a boot camp and it was only 4 weeks long, I decided to give it a try. Sara was very organized and enthusiastic. She laid out how we were supposed to plan and shop for the next four weeks and launched us with clear instructions and easy rules to follow and best of all, PRIZES. Sara is a great cheer leader which helped me, for the first time start to believe that perhaps I could do this. I had no idea that deep inside I had a competitive nature but each week I saw progress which motivated me to push harder. At the end of 4 weeks I’d lost 16.5 pounds and 6.5 inches off my waist. I couldn’t believe it! Thank you Sara.” J.M., 56

“In the four weeks of the program I lost 7 pounds and 2 inches off my stomach! My blood work is just back from my recent physical and my cholesterol is at an all time low! I originally signed up for this program to refocus my weight loss efforts and to be accountable. I achieved that and more! Great nutritional information, motivation and lots of creative workouts. I would recommend this program to anyone!” Lisa H, 53, Health Educator

“I signed up for the 4 week program to start a lifestyle change. I have been maintaining the same weight for 3 years and had a very stubborn metabolism. This program was exactly what I needed. Sara is extremely motivating and genuinely cares about you and your health. I have never met a more supportive trainer. I lost 9 lbs in 4 weeks and 3 inches off my belly. I am so happy with my results and excited to see how else I can transform my body, that I now go exclusively to the Fitness Lab 3 times a week for the Bootcamp. The classes are really fun and always different, so your body is always challenged. I was a person who always hated going to the gym. I now look forward to my workouts.” Vaneeta P, 27, Microsoft Project Manager

“I signed up as I am a bridesmaid this summer and wanted to look good in my dress. Starting at 140lbs, I didn’t lose a ridiculous amount of weight in the 4 weeks (just 4lbs), but I did lose 2.5 inches from my belly and several inches from my hips, arms and thighs. I was very pleased with the results and have gone down a dress size plus received many compliments. I actually had to return my bridesmaid dress for a smaller size! For the first time in my life I am able to run for 30 minutes without stopping. I was also interviewing for a super awesome job during the course of the 4 weeks and the day after final weigh in I received a job offer! I, at least partially, credit this success to boot camp as I was sleeping much better and able to concentrate through the 5-6 hour interview process (super long!) The best thing about it is I think I will be able to carry on the program by myself – now that I know what I need to do to achieve results. I really think the RFLP has set me up for future success in managing my diet, exercise and overall lifestyle. Thanks Sara!” Louise R, 31, HR Business Partner

“The Sync Fitness Rapid Fat Loss program was tremendous. Sara walked up through each step of the process. She was always very encouraging and inspirational. I signed up because my fitness and weight had been falling slowly over the past several years. From the first several meetings to the grocery store tour. Sara patiently explained about clean eating and determining our base caloric intake amounts. I had a great time, not only did I lose 18 lbs in 4 weeks, but my fitness was significantly improved. Thanks Sara!” Patrick E, 39, Programmer

“I signed up for the RFL program because my weight-loss had plateaued and I needed to shake things up a bit. And, wow, did this ever shake things up! In four weeks, I lost more than 6 pounds and 2.5 inches off of my waist. I was THRILLED with the results! Every aspect of the program worked for me and fit into my lifestyle; the program is challenging but realistic. The key to the program’s success is Sara. She is exceptionally knowledgeable, generous, talented, and motivating, and her energy and enthusiasm are infectious. There’s no way you can’t be psyched about getting healthy when Sara’s involved! Highly recommended.” Deb H, 44, Editor

“Nothing ever worked for me to get on top of my weight loss as well as Sara’s program, and I’ve tried everything. The program works for athletes and beginners alike. Her approach is comprehensive, and made simple at the same time. You have no choice but to lose weight, and your body loves the challenge. Feel like being proud of yourself every day for a month and at the end of the month seeing 10+ pounds gone? Sign up.” E.M., 41, Database Designer

“I lost nearly 9lbs and 5% of my body weight in Sync Fitness’ Four Week Rapid Fat Loss program. This was the perfect boost I needed to get my pre wedding results I was striving for. I had a ton of success in the six week program in the fall, I kept the weight off by continuing to be one of Sara’s bootcamper and the 2nd program really helped me get toned! Now I’m ready to walk down the aisle feeling confident that I look amazing!” Megan C, 29, Wedding Planner

“The rapid fat loss program shifted my views on eating, exercise and hydration. It was an amazing experience and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to shake up their routine. I lost 7 lbs and feel so much more balanced and strong after having completed the program!” Emma, 26, childcare professional

Because all my weight loss programs sell out quickly, I have an application process to make sure I’m only selecting people who are really ready to commit to this life changing process. If this is not the right time for you, no worries, I will offer other programs down the road. However, if you believe this is your time to take the bull by the horns and get fit and fabulous for Fall, simply click here to email me at sara@syncfitness.com with answers to the following questions:

1. What makes you a good candidate for this program at this time (January 23rd – February 20th)? NOTE: I take this question very seriously. Please give it some thought. I need to know you’re ready to commit.
2. Can you attend at least three workouts each week at the following times: Mon/Wed/Fri 6am, Tu/Th 5:45pm, Sat 8am?

This year has been successful in ways I could not anticipate last January. It has been the single best year for Sync Fitness for many reasons. I wish I could individually highlight each client I had the pleasure of working with this year. I want each of you to know how much I truly LOVE and APPRECIATE every bit of energy and sweat you share with me. Sync Fitness is nothing without YOU.

Sync Fitness started out as a little personal training business almost 8 years ago. Those of you who come in for one-on-one personal training deserve recognition and major props for training under my watchful eye with nowhere to hide. You can’t hide in the back of the class in a 1:1 session. Thank you for never saying no, for always trusting me and for helping me count when I forget how. 1:1 training is where Sync Fitness began and the relationships I’ve developed over the years with you, my 1:1 friends, mean a lot to me. I feel so blessed to enjoy the time we spend together. I truly love being a part of your life.

Sync Fitness classes have long been a part of the program, but they have evolved to an entirely different level this year. My Boot Camp program has grown so tremendously, I’m adding more classes starting January 3rd. What’s most impressive is that it’s the 6am classes that are busting at the seems. For those of you who get up 3 days a week and drag yourself to the Fitness Lab half awake/half asleep, please know how impressed I am by your discipline and determination. 6am classes are painful – but only for the first few minutes . Additionally, many folks in the Boot Camp program started out with a skeptical eye and a barfy belly, not sure if they could tolerate boot camp workouts. Look how many of you have survived?!?! You have all become stronger and fitter. It’s getting to the point that I wouldn’t want to workout beside some of you, cause you might beat me at my own game. Thank you for pushing yourself and those around you. Boot Camps classes fuel me and my own workouts. Your dripping sweat, spraying spit and crinkled up faces of pain, I mean pleasure, make my day, everyday.

The newest component of Sync Fitness in 2010 was my Total Body Transformation program. As I type this sentence, I can’t help but get a little teary. This program has changed the lives of over 30 individuals this year. It has changed my life as well. Guiding your transformations has been my most proud experience as a personal trainer. It takes huge courage just to sign up for this program. The applications I receive as people explain their struggles with food and weight and self image absolutely tear at my heart strings. Each of you have reminded me exactly why I do what I do. I can’t tell you how much joy I feel for your successes this year. In addition to looking simply fabulous, you are all standing taller, smiling wider and carrying yourselves with more honor and pride. I am humbled by the commitment you made to yourself and to Sync Fitness this year. Thank you for being incredibly brave, embracing this program and showing yourself who’s boss. Know that you inspire me everyday.

Thank you to each one of you for sharing a little bit of yourself with me. It is a privilege and honor to be a part of your life and your health. It is a job I take very seriously. Each of you have made me a better trainer this year. Thank you for making my little baby, Sync Fitness, the Little Engine that Could Not Be Stopped this year.

ARE YOU READY TO KICK OFF 2011 WITH 10-20 POUNDS OF FAT LOSS?!

Here it is folks – what you have all been asking for . . . the 2011 launch of my 6 Week Total Body Transformation! The Winter program will run January 16th – February 26th. Today I get to officially open up this program to a handful of applicants. Over the summer and fall Sync Fitness ran this program with HUGE success. Let me show you some numbers:

Summer: 6 Weeks . . . 15 people . . . 166 pounds lost . . . 122 inches lost . . . AMAZING!

Fall: 6 Weeks . . . 13 people . . . 135 pounds lost . . . 81 inches lost . . . INCREDIBLE!

I have spent a lot of time designing this program for people who are REALLY serious about REAL results. If you are serious about losing weight, fat and inches this program is for you.

Changing your body is an overwhelming project. I have gone through this myself in a few different ways. I grew up overweight. I did Weight Watchers for the first time, and not the last, in the 5th grade, no joke! Changing your body can be the most empowering experience of your life. Years ago, when I became a self trained runner, I got myself through my first half marathon crying the entire last three miles because I was so proud of reaching a goal I NEVER dreamed possible. BTW, don’t be a self trained runner. I knew nothing about running when I did this and I made it a million times harder and more painful than necessary! So, please know that I am coming from a place of experience and transformation. I have set up a program in which I can hold your hand the entire journey. That said, this will be hard work and I do expect you to rise to the occasion.

WHAT TO EXPECT during 6 Week Total Body Transformation:
• 10-20 lbs of weight loss
• 2-6 % decrease in body fat
• 2-6 inches off your waist
• Firmer arms, legs and buns
• Flatter belly / Less bloat / Smaller waist
• A metabolic boost that causes you to burn more calories at rest
• Energy through the roof
• Improved mood, sleep, sex drive

You should know that I have some expectations of you if you commit to this program. Your success will depend on your dedication and discipline.

WHAT I EXPECT OF YOU during 6 Week Total Body Transformation:
1. You will commit to exercising 5 days a week (3 semi-private training sessions with Sync Fitness and 2 cardio sessions on your own.) Semi-private sessions with Sync Fitness will take place M/W/F at 6am, M/F at 7am and Tu/Th at 6pm at The Fitness Lab in Wallingford. You choose 3 sessions a week to attend.
2. You will commit to eating a healthy and clean diet (I’ll give you meal plans and recipes.)
3. You will allow me to take and use your before/after data and photos to brag about you and motivate others. Initial Assessments will take place on Sunday, January 16th. Final Assessments will take place on Saturday, February 26th.

WHAT YOU’LL GET during 6 Week Total Body Transformation:
• ASSESSMENTS: This is the fun stuff. I will take and compile your before and after data and photos. I will measure and track your weight, body fat, and body circumference measurements. I know, this doesn’t sound fun. But, trust me, when you compare them end numbers to the beginning numbers, you’ll think it’s the best game ever! VALUE = $187
• STRENGTH TRAINING SESSIONS: I will give you an exercise program that maximizes your workout time to make you a lean, mean calorie burning machine. You’ll meet with me for semi-private training 3 days a week. No more guessing what exercises to do! I will also make sure that you’re performing exercises in a safe way to minimize the risk of injury and blast calories like never before. VALUE = $367
• CARDIO WORKOUTS: I will show you ways to make cardio fly by and burn more calories that you ever thought possible. I’ll even teach you some special tricks to burn more calories in your sleep! VALUE = $197
• NUTRITION: You know what you should eat, but you just haven’t taken the time and effort to clean up your diet, right? I’ll give you a specific meal plan to follow with a ton of recipes. Nothing crazy or super restrictive – just good, healthy, clean eating. VALUE = $ 287
• SUPPORT/SURPRISES: This is the best part of the program. I don’t share all of this publicly. But this piece of the weight loss puzzle will be huge in your success – promise! You will have constant access to me in person and via phone and email. Additionally, there will be surprises/education/support that will ensure that you will have amazing results over this 6 weeks. VALUE = $ 597

Are you ready to sign up yet??

As you can see this program is worth over $1600. But I want to be able to share it with as many people as possible, so I’m offering it as low as I possibly can. The 6 Week Total Body Transformation Program including everything above is two payments of $247. Your first payment will be at the beginning of the program, the second one will be at the halfway point. You would spend twice as much just signing up for 6 weeks of personal training, so this is a really great deal. I hope you don’t let it pass you by. So, if you’re really committed to changing your body before the holidays, register now!

Here is what past participants have to say about their experience upon completing the 6 Week Total Body Transformation:

“This 6 week class has been life changing for me. Like many, I knew many of the principles covered in the class (diet, exercise, what to do, not to do) but Sara put them all together, plus more, in one package and along with her knowledge, enthusiasm and patience, the light bulb finally went off! For the first time in my life, I can honestly say I look forward to working out and really am aware of what I am eating! I have lost 11 pounds and 8 inches and am excited about the way I feel about myself!” Lisa, 52, Manager, Seattle Cancer Care Alliance

“I signed up for TBT to lose weight and improve my overall health and mental well-being. All of these were accomplished!! My weight loss goal was eighteen pounds, and I achieved an 18.8 pound loss. I am more awake and alert during the day and have more energy. On bootcamp days I notice the greatest positive effects.” Kevin, 41, Business Owner

I signed up for TBT because I need a change in my routine. I was eating, ‘kind of healthy’ and I was working out ‘pretty regular’, but not to the extent that I was changing my body. I wanted a change and I needed to be accountable to more than myself to make it happen. I can justify anything so there were always reasons why I didn’t end up working out or why we ate out instead of cooking. I’m competitive by nature so having weekly weigh ins and a manual to write everything I ate down was great for me. A major kudos to the class is that it combines cardio with strength. Plus, I want to look amazeballs at my wedding. I want people whispering to each other while I walk down the aisle about how awesome I look…and at this point I think they will and I have Sync Fitness to thank for it! Lost 9 lbs Lost 8 inches (3 off the middle!) Lost 4% body fat……AND COUNTING! Megan, 29, Wedding Planner

“I signed up for the TBT because I was out of control. I would randomly just eat whatever was around and never really think about its nutritional value. I knew that the summer months would only make this worse if I didn’t get some kind of handle on my eating and exercise habits. For me, this program has made me much more aware of what I am putting into my mouth…and why! I am a new fan of water consumption, even though it has never been my favorite thing. I also discovered many new ways to cut calories but not give up on taste or satisfaction. Plus, thanks to the morning boot camps, my arms and back have never looked this good! I’m moving in the fall months with a new-found motivation to keep up these good habits. Thanks Sara!” Shannon, 40, High School English Teacher

“I have maintained a steady weight and body shape for most of my life, until the last year or so. Between lifestyle/health/medical changes, I was the most “out of shape” that I’ve ever been, at about 15 pounds above my normal weight. The Total Body Transformation program was the perfect opportunity to get my butt in gear . The first thing that caught my attention about the program was Sara’s enthusiasm and commitment to support her trainees. She has a lot of knowledge to share, and does so in an open-minded way. Attending Boot Camp 3 days/week has had the biggest impact on me in so many different ways: my energy level is much higher, my mood has improved, my food choices are smarter… I’ve said to myself at LEAST once a week, “I feel like a million bucks!!” And the technical results back up my mantra – I’ve lost over 10 pounds and 4″ from my waistline! Wendy, 30, Landscape Designer

“I signed up for this program when I found out from my MD that my medical stats (cholesterol, etc) were going up. They were still in the safe range, but they were heading in the wrong direction and that I needed to lose weight in order to get them going in the right direction. . . I lost 10 pounds, something I have been trying to do for many years, and 6 inches overall. My strength and balance have improved as has my self-image. I commute the seven miles home by bicycle several times a week, and now find that I only need to take one break when I go uphill rather than the two I needed in the past. I’m stronger, faster and even with several jobs am less stressed out as a result of the regular exercise and good diet Sara insisted upon. Sara provides the means and motivation to follow it in class and beyond. I look forward to continuing to work with her on my goals and would recommend her to anyone!” Bridget, 41, Curator/Registrar/Educator

“I started Sync Fitness’ Total Body Transformation out of desperation and really didn’t expect much as far as results. Everything else I’d tried over the last several years didn’t work but with my wedding 2 months away I was willing to give it a try. In six weeks I lost 15 pounds and a total of 10 inches. My confidence level has risen and so has my energy level. I look and feel amazing. I’ve learned so much and would never go back to my old eating habits. This program has been life changing for me. I’m now armed with the information to look and feel great for the rest of my life. This program has given me the gift of feeling beautiful on one of the most important days of my life. I’m thrilled with the results!” Christie, 34, Dental Sales

“I had a wonderful experience participating in the TBT program. During the 6 weeks I learned about nutrition, how my body is fueled by calories, how to maximize caloric burn and was physically challenged by Sara’s rigrious (& creative) workouts. Whenever I had a question about meal planning or workouts, Sara was available to guide me. The TBT program not only helped me lose pounds and inches, it also armed me with skills to incorporate healthy fitness and nutrition practices into my post-TBT life.” Erica, 34, Buyer, Nordstrom

Sara’s program worked when nothing else did. I signed up to lose weight and to reduce my cholesterol levels. I was able to lose over 13 pounds in merely 6 weeks without feeling as though I was suffering. Sara created a holistic program that encompassed sound nutrition, accountability, and an excellent training program. What separates Sara and her program from others is her vast knowledge-base and follow-through. She is also flexible in tailoring her program to individual needs. Her lack of rigidity and emphasis on the big picture really helped keep me motivated. I cannot say enough good things about Sara and her program. Barbara, 41, Entrepreneur

Over the last two+ years, I gained 30 lbs for a variety of reasons. I was disliking my body enough and depressed enough that I was regularly overeating to the point of feeling sick most nights. I signed up for Sara’s program after trying several other methods to get my weight problem under control. . . The reason I gave to Sara when I signed up was that I could choose to spend more money at Nordstrom on larger new clothes, or I could spend that money on her program and loose enough weight to wear the beautiful clothes in my closet. I could tell I had made the right investment only 2 weeks into the program. There was a dramatic difference in how my clothing was fitting. By week 4 I was forced to sort out the size 14 pants from my closet because they were just way too baggy. Now I am starting too wear some of my size 10 stuff. I am feeling stronger. My back is not hurting after a long day. I have more energy at work. I look forward to the workouts. I like how I look when I walk past storefronts and can see my reflection. Thank you, Sara!! Jill,55, Real Estate Development Project Manager

I signed up for the TBT program after working out regularly on my own for years without being able to lose the last 10 lbs. after having kids. I thought I knew what to do and what to eat but I wasn’t having success losing weight in my waist and hips. During the program, I found that I could get more from Sara’s 45 minute bootcamps than hours in the gym doing the wrong things. Every workout is different, and goes by so quickly I hardly even realized how hard I was working. Sara gives you nutritional plans that are easy to follow and I never felt hungry or deprived. At the end of 6 weeks, I lost 12 lbs. and 3 inches from my waistline. That was more success in 6 weeks than I had had in years working out on my own! Plus, I feel I have gained the knowledge of what I should put in my body , how much to eat and the confidence that I can do it on my own. I have so much energy, sleep great and am a positive role model for my kids & family now. Best of all, I am really excited to feel this great when I turn 40 in 2 weeks! Thanks Sara! Melissa 40, Teacher, Mom

HOW TO REGISTER:

Because there is already so much interest in this program and I only have limited space to give you 110% of my energy and support, I am asking very serious people to apply for the program. Yes, you must apply. Don’t be scared. I just need a tool to determine who is most appropriate at this time for this round of my 6 Week Total Body Transformation.

PLEASE KNOW THAT THIS PROGRAM SOLD OUT WITHIN 8 HOURS OF LAUNCHING IN THE PAST. IF YOU’RE SERIOUS YOU MUST APPLY TODAY!! To apply, email me at sara@syncfitness.com and answer the following questions:
1. What makes you a good candidate for this program at this time (January 16th – February 26th?) NOTE: I take this question very seriously. Please give it some thought. I need to know you’re ready to commit.
2. Can you attend three workouts each week at the following times: Mon/Wed/Fri 6am, Mon/Fri 7am or Tu/Th 6pm?
3. Can you eat clean and closely follow my meal plan in spite of upcoming events?
4. Can you cut alcohol out for this 6 weeks or limit yourself to 2 drinks PER WEEK for the duration of the program?
5. Can you handle before and after pictures, measurements, body fat testing and weekly weigh ins?
6. Can you commit to 2 payments of $247? You will be billed once at the beginning of the program and again at the halfway point.

Ok, the choice is yours. By the end of February you could be fitter, happier, healthier and 10-20 pounds lighter. Or you could be just as you are today – frustrated, uncomfortable in your own skin and jealous of your skinny friends. I hope you choose the former and make 2011 YOUR year!

Sync Fitness Outdoor Boot Camp is all wrapped up. We had a ton of fun getting stronger and faster and more fit this summer. Starting September 15 Sync Fitness classes will move back indoors to Seattle’s best training studio, The Fitness Lab. I am so excited to announce my new class schedule! With the new and improved Fitness Lab location in Fremont/Wallingford I will be able to offer more classes to more people. I am thrilled to be able to reach more of you! Please read through the info below to see if my new classes fit your fitness needs.

CLASS DESCRIPTION:
Sync Fitness’s new classes will be a combination of Indoor Boot Camp and Circuit Classes many of you have taken before. Because we will have much more space than we’ve had in the past, we will be movin’ and shakin’ and sweatin’ quite a bit. As always, I will be able to modify class activities to accommodate many fitness levels. If you’re just getting back into exercise I will be able to help you find the best ways to break a sweat without breaking a leg. If you’ve been training with me all summer and you’re ready to step it up a notch, I’m ready to bring it on!

DAYS/TIMES:
Tuesdays and Thursdays starting September 15th
6:00 – 6:50 AM
6:00 – 6:50 PM

There is no end date for classes. I will offer these classes on an ongoing basis from here on out – yippee!

LOCATION:
The Fitness Lab
3410 Stone Way North
Seattle, WA 98103

Our new location is 6 blocks south of the old location. We share The Kite Shop/Subway Sandwich parking lot. There are 4 marked parking spots in front of the studio. In addition, there is street parking and a pay lot, as a last resort.

PAYMENT:
$165 per month ($160 per month if you register by September 8)
$20 set up fee (waived if you register by September 8)

Because classes are now being offered on an ongoing basis, this is a monthly fee rather than an upfront payment for an 8 week series, as in the past. This means less money up front. When you register for class you will be billed monthly, via electronic payments. You can pay by credit or debit card, as many of you have been requesting for some time – woo hoo! Your registration is ongoing until you decide to cancel it. You are not obligated to any length of time.

**Your monthly payment allows you to attend any or all Sync Fitness classes each week. Feel free to attend all 4 every week!**

REGISTRATION: Contact me at Sara@SyncFitness.com or 206.354.7480 to register. Remember, if you register by September 8, your monthly cost will be $160 AND your set up fee will be waived. That’s a potential savings of $80!

“Does it REALLY matter if someone does crunches instead of sit-ups? Are 50 crunches better than 100 sit-ups? What’s the real deal from the resident fitness guru?”

Here is my reply:

In terms of strengthening your abs without compromising your back, crunches are better. Sit ups are good as long as you they don’t bother your back. BUT – if you’re looking to flatten your abs it’s more a matter of losing body fat. You can crunch till the cows come home and still carry belly weight. Flat abs are generally attributed to excellent nutrition, low body fat and lots of lean muscle mass. I know that’s not a fun answer.

Also, know that a lot of those people you know who have awesome abs also have awesome genetics. Some people are lucky enough to inherit bodies that don’t carry as much around the middle.  That doesn’t mean flat abs can’t be had if you weren’t born with them. But you may have to work a little harder if your belly is the place where you tend to carry your body fat.

Being very diligent about what you put in your mouth and how much you sweat it out can hugely impact your six pack.  I have to brag for just a moment here . . . I have a client who is preparing for her wedding in Seattle in a month.  She has done an amazing job of watching her diet and exercising very consistently over the past few months.  She came into The Fitness Lab for her personal training session last week and asked me, “Can I show you my six pack?”  She has worked really hard and as a result you can see these beautiful lines carving out the abdominal muscles on her belly.

Food that will help you lose belly weight: lean protein, veggies and water – TONS of this and little to nothing of anything else.  Like I said, it ain’t easy!  But nothing tastes as good as a six pack feels!
