We were speaking to a good friend who also happens to be in our boot camp and kettlebell program for over a year now.  She was telling us before she started boot camp she had severe back issues and was under the care of a chiropractic doctor that advised her to never lift any more than 10 lbs.  She was left with the impression that her back issue was something that she could do nothing about and furthermore she should limit her activities in life because of it.

She began with a little bit of personal training with Jeff and then started boot camp and as soon as kettlebell camp came along she started that class.  She has faithfully come 5 days per week for over a year now.  She has experienced great results with changing her body and her back issues are at a minimum now.  She regularly use 15lb. dumbbells in class and now does a 52 lb.kettlebell clean, squat and press.  Had she not sought out alternative solutions or stayed open minded to the solutions that her coach offered she may have settled for a life of limited activities and limited health.

THIS IS NOT TO SAY YOU SHOULD IGNORE YOUR DOCTOR'S ADVICE.

THIS IS TO SAY - NEVER SETTLE FOR LESS THAN OPTIMAL HEALTH AND ABILITIES.  IT IS YOUR LIFE AND YOU SHOULD SEEK OUT ALTERNATIVE SOLUTIONS THAT WILL ENABLE YOU TO HAVE GREAT QUALITY OF LIFE.
