  • [VIDEO BLOG] The Best Fat Burning Workout You Can Do In Your Hotel Room


    The Best Fat Burning Workout You Can Do In Your Hotel Room
    If there’s one guaranteed way to stumble in your weight loss journey, it’s traveling without a plan. Nothing can throw off your focus like long plane rides, unfamiliar hotels, and limited meal selections. However, there’s one thing you can definitely do to stack the deck in your favor, and that’s to plan out a fat burning workout you could do anywhere. Too many people find that their hotel doesn’t have a gym (or has an inadequate one) and take that as a sign to skip workouts, sometimes for weeks. Physical fitness doesn’t necessarily need to ....

It’s natural to experience highs and lows on any diet or exercise program, but reaching a plateau in your weight loss can be frustrating, especially if you’ve been on a roll. Sometimes, it’s even frustrating enough to make you want to try a radical change. Like, say, drastically switching up your protein or carb intake to see if that can make a difference.

DROPPED 8 PANT SIZES! 

"I decided I needed to start a fitness program because I realized I had gained an awful lot of weight. My blood pressure was out of control and my eating was out of control, so I decided to come back to a program that I knew would work.

Since joining, my results have been absolutely amazing! I went from a size 14 women’s pants to a 6, I lost lots of inches, and I’ve lost about 14 pounds so far; Mint Condition is really working for me.

I love the philosophy that Mint Condition has – it’s both body and mind! And my trainer really gives me that boost when I need it and is so encouraging, and that’s why I come here – because they are #1!

To someone on the fence about joining Mint Condition Fitness, I would say “Do it!” It’s hard; when I first started coming, I thought, “I can’t believe I’m going to do this three days a week and make this commitment,” but once you do make the commitment, it is completely life-changing. It’s not a diet, it’s a change of lifestyle, and I would say absolutely go for it! You’ll feel great, and you’ll love it."

Achievements:

  • Weight: Lost 14 lbs and still going!
  • Measurements: Went from size 14 to size 6 in women’s pants.
  • More confident
  • Increased energy
  • Has a completely different perspective on eating
  • Looks forward to her workouts

OUT OF PAIN + 25 LBS LIGHTER

"At the age of 46, I had stopped working out for 4 years (kids, work, life). My back was killing me, my knees hurt and I was on a strict "see food" diet. I saw food and I ate it. I joined Mint Condition to find the guy I was in my 30's. Active, eating healthy and working towards fitness goals.

In the 5 months I have been at Mint, I have lost 25 lbs, I have found the person I used to be and feel like I accomplished something every time I walk out the doors at Mint.

The staff is amazing. The personal trainers there tailor a program specific of your needs and goals, they focus on you whether you are trying to get back into fitness, losing weight or recovering from an injury. If you want results, look no further than Mint Condition Fitness."

Achievements:

  • Lost 30.5 lbs. in 8 months
  • Lost 10% body fat
  • Performed 100 lb. Turkish Get Up
  • Feels stronger than when he was 30
  • Went from a 10 second plan to 90 seconds

LOST 18 LBS + FEELING CONFIDENT!

"I decided to start with Mint Condition because I wasn’t happy with the way I looked and hadn’t been happy with it for a long time. I was called fat twice, and it hurt. I needed something...I needed to make a change, and that's why I came to Mint.

Since joining Mint, I’ve lost a lot of pounds and inches! Pants that I never thought I’d fit into again, fit! Clothes feel better, I feel better, I feel confident. That's the biggest reward - self-confidence and self-esteem.

What I like best about the program is the accountability. I have a set appointments, and it's become part of my weekly routine. I look forward to my workouts; I know how much better and stronger I’ll feel after each one, and if I don't come in, the only person it's going to injure is me. I won't be able to get the results I want without my trainer and the support I get here.

If you're thinking about joining Mint, I would say come in for the consultation. I knew once I saw the brochure and met with Colin that this was what I needed. Even just coming in the doors and watching how the session and facilities work, you get the feeling this place isn't like and other gym you've been in. You’ll be hooked in no time."

Achievements:

  • Weight: Lost 18 pounds of fat
  • Measurements: Lost 3 ½” at the waist
  • Body Fat: Lost 8% body fat
  • Increased upper and lower body strength
  • Improved knowledge of nutrition and built a better relationship with food
  • Boosted energy and confidence!
