Let's Keep Warm During the Cold!

From: Mike Burstein

Hello Boot Campers, (and the occasional Saturday Boot Campers!)

Just want to start off by saying great job! You guys are continuing to show 100% effort in every exercise both new and old. I can see you guys continuing to get closer and closer to your goals as each class passes, and I hope you guys are keeping your goals in mind.

I know it is harder on some mornings to show up and give 100% during the cold, but let's remember that rain or shine, we need exercise to maintain a healthy lifestyle and continue to feel good about ourselves and have a positive outlook on life. It may be harder to get up during the cold weather, but remember that within 10 minutes of warming up, you guys are all warmed up and ready to go in shorts and a tank top.

I recently received some concern about the cold weather and muscles. Obviously, if it is colder outside the muscles do need more time to warm up. This is why I like to spend so much time warming up right at the beginning of class so that our muscles get warm and stay warm for the whole class. So no need to stress about that. I hope to see you all continue to show up and give 100% as the mornings get colder, and just remember how you feel after class. Keep that feeling in mind, as well as your goals and showing up each morning will get you excited for your day.

Keep up the great work,

Mike
