I am proud to announce to you all that I am now a NGA Natural Pro Bodybuilder. This past weekend I competed in the 2010 NGA Heart of America Classic. I can’t begin to tell you the journey that it has been during the past 6 months. Running my own business as a personal trainer here in Charlotte requires many long hours. I knew when I signed up to do this show it was going to be the hardest one so far. When people tell you that your body changes when you get older, TRUST ME it does!! My body did not respond as it normally had for previous shows.

When I commit my mind to do something I do it 100%. I remember when it snowed a few months ago and I was so exhausted. I thought about using the excuse that I couldn’t go to the gym because there was snow on the ground. However, I reminded myself that my competitor was probably sitting at home. I walked to the gym that day through the snow and all to do my cardio. Many days I was strictly running off of faith and nothing else. Every time I would even think about slacking off I thought of my good friend Larry. I trained Larry a few years ago for his first bodybuilding show. Larry stands out to me because his job required him to work so many swing shift hours. Larry kept on while never giving up. I told myself if Larry didn’t find any excuses to give up then neither would I.

Initially I competed for my division in the video and then I went on to compete for overall and I won!!! Did you get that?? I won the ENTIRE show while beating out 71 competitors. WOW!!! It was an overwhelming range of feelings. I feel so blessed.

It’s so important to me to lead by example. I have to be a role model and inspiration to you all. I am truly not a trainer talking the talk but you better believe I am walking the walk as well.

I am so blessed to have a son who is so driven to take a part in his health and wellness. Kendrick loves to go the gym and work out with me. He is twelve years old and taking a strong interest in his body and wanting to look nice. Right now I am less than 4 weeks out from competing in a pro qualifier body building show in Illinois. I will be doing a show next weekend on April 24th right here in Charlotte as well. For any of you locals who would like to come out and support me I would greatly appreciate it. You will love the show and it’s right here in Charlotte. Show details can be found at http://www.leepromotions.com/images/char_cup.jpg

Anyways getting back on topic I love working out with my son. Working out together gives us the opportunity to bond, catch up on life, and get in better shape. When is the last time you exercised with your family? Go now to www.charlottepersonaltrainers.com and see how you can take your first step towards your health and wellness.

Me and Church Boy

I had a blast this morning on Charlotte’s WPEG Power 98 with the morning maddhouse crew! It was so wild! They contacted me a few weeks ago about giving an interview on spring fitness tips for the Charlotte and surrounding area. I also got the opportunity to hang out with 2 other top Charlotte trainers including Tory Woodbury and Lisa Fields. We had some great calls this morning into the radio station and I honestly enjoyed myself. Go ahead and check it out right now…

What is your idea? Is it happiness? Is it happiness to be healthy or even to be rich? Either way it is an idea that makes you think that. The question is do you believe it? Believing should be the next step within your thought process. Make a decision to be the best at what ever you do. If your intent is good and you are doing great by others and yourself, success will come. Success comes in many different forms not just in monetary value. Watch this video and dream bigger than life. After you have seen this mega Super Star speak of his thought process you should be fired up and ready for a change! In fact you should at least watch this video twice. After that I encourage all ladies to go to www.charlotte21dayfatloss.com to start with your health. The men of the house go to www.healingcharlotte.com click on the Power Start Program. Your health has to be first and everything else in your life will start to grow and prosper from there.
Yours In Health,
Kennett

We had a great time!!! Incase you didn’t read about it make sure you scroll down on my blog and check out the video on it. Check out this video on how much the students appreciated us.

Hi guys,
Want to see how teachers are exercising and staying fit? Check out Megan Woodley’s video clip and how she kicks butt teacher’s style at Lancaster Women’s Boot Camp.

Wanda and Megan giving me attitude

Why has the Boot Camp been a success for women in the Lancaster and Charlotte area? It’s just fun, and they are seeing the results. Fun and exercising! Is it possible? You better believe it.

All you have to do is read the articles, listen to the videos and look at
the pictures we have put on the blog. You will see one common theme with
all of the women of the Boot Camp. It’s Fun!!

Wanda Johnson and Megan Woodley (pictured above) are two of my long time mebers in the Lancaster area. The one thing I absolutley love about womens bootcamp is the friendships that we all develop. I do have to admit the Lancaster women do tend to be closer with one another and I would guess it’s because Lancaster is a small town. We have a lot of fun and the cool thing is we are exercising at the same time.

If you are missing fun in your life and would like to improve your health and fitness goals register now for your “try before you buy.” That’s right, you can test it out before you pay a dime. If you are in the Lancaster area you can go to www.lancasterbootcampsforwomen.com and if you are in the Charlotte are you can go to www.charlottebootcampsforwomen.com to reserve your slot now.

For all of you that are or have been a part of the lancaster and Charlotte Boot Camps for Women,
thank you for making this experience a success.

I would like to introduce all of you to Pam Boling. This lady is so soft spoken but very much a Lion at heart. She works very hard at the camps and always has questions for me about her nutrition and other efforts towards her health and fitness goals. Remember back in school when your classmates would win the award for perfect attendance and you would think to yourself “Man, how do they do that?” Well I am here to tell you that by doing something for more than 7 days you create a habit. I wouldn’t exactly call exercising everyday a bad habit, would you??? Pam has been attending Lancaster Women’s Boot Camp for about a month and WOW what a difference. Watch her clip and see what other achievements she has made.
