The Trumbull Boot Camp has returned to the great outdoors.  We now meet every Monday and Wednesday evening at 6:00 as well as every Saturday morning at 10:00.  All Classes are held at Twin Brooks Park in Trumbull.  The class is growing by leaps and bounds.  We have added 9 new participants this week alone.  Everyone is working very hard, and we are going to be in great shape before the Summer arrives. The kettle bells are coming back and so is the weight sled.  Who knows what other tricks Chris Terenzio has up his sleeve.  Classes will become more challenging, especially with regards to cardiovascular conditioning, and we are adding heavier weights as well.  This is the best way to boost the metabolism so that we all lose weight and burn fat more efficiently.  You have got to try this class.  Look for our Boot Camp Jr. program coming soon.  This is a class designed to challenge children ages 10 -16.

The nice weather is just around the corner.  Soon everyone will be outside wearing t-shirts, shorts, and bathing suits.  Now is the perfect time to start getting your body ready for Spring and Summer.  Joining a fitness group is a great way to get and stay motivated.  Become part of a team, and reap the benefits of hard work.  Our Boot Camp style exercise classes will help you to achieve your goals.  Our class meets every Monday and Wednesday evening, as well as every Saturday morning.  That’s three chances to improve your fitness and to get ready for being in the great outdoors.  For more details, contact Chris Terenzio of In-Home Health & Fitness – www.bootcamp-ct.com.

The Monroe Boot Camp class at Playtime Village in Monroe is going strong!  Every week we are adding new members to our awesome fitness team.  Today we had our  largest and most challenging class ever, and we added our youngest participant to date.  Cole, age 12, is our newest member.  He loved the class and showed that you’re never to young to start.  But Cole is the only male in our class.  Cole and our women want to know if you are man enough to take the class.  If you think you are, contact Chris Terenzio of In-Home Health & Fitness at: www.bootcamp-ct.com.  We also have classes in Trumbull and Stamford.  If you have what it takes, this is the class for you!

Most people think that cardiovascular exercise is best way to shed excess fat weight.  Unfortunately that is not true.  And dieting alone is not enough to make a big difference either.  Resistance training is the key to reducing your body fat.  Think of it this way. Muscle equals metabolism; the more muscle you have, the more efficiently your metabolism will run.  Muscles require energy for maintenance, so they help you burn calories.  Also, a more muscular body burns more calories while performing aerobic exercise. The bottom line is –  if you are not lifting weights, add resistance training to your program.  You will be thrilled with the results. Chose exercises that work all the muscles of the body, and  be sure to select a weight that is challenging on the last few repetitions. If you don’t know what to do, contact a qualified instructor.  Chris at In Home Health & Fitness can help you.  Call 203.253.3179.

In preparation for the In Home-Health and Fitness Boot Camp challenge, Chris Terenzio had his Trumbull boot campers pull the weight sled!  50 pounds pulled 30 yards in each direction (3 times for each camper) equalled burning quads and racing hearts.  ”I never imagined that I could love and hate an exercise at the same time” stated one camper.  The Trumbull participants are getting ready to wage friendly competition against their Stamford counterparts.  Stay tuned to see what happens next (pictures and video coming soon).

In-Home Health & Fitness is pleased to announce the launch of its new web site. Our goal is to provide visitors with a virtual experience that is as compelling as our boot camps. Of course, the digital world can never match a dynamic workout with personal trainer Chris Terenzio but we designed this site to complement the benefits of our training sessions and classes.

In the coming months, we will be introducing new features including special offers, helpful health and fitness tips, video demonstrations, and an online store. Tell us what you think and help us make this site even better.

Chris Terenzio will be showing you how to tone your core at the next boot camp. We’ve added the sled and kettle bells!
