Before South Beach Boxing, I would always find excuses and reasons not to train. I used to see Jolie at the Miami Beach Chamber meetings talking about the gym and how awesome it was, but I never got around to checking it out.
Even though I felt tired and sluggish, it took me 3 years to motivate myself to come in to try a class. The location of the gym was perfect for me, and the staff was so friendly and helpful. I expected it to be intense and hard work, but I also thought, like everything else, it would get boring. I have done other things to work out like spinning, but eventually they all get boring!
It turns out I was very wrong. No matter what class you take, they are always different. The first two weeks were rough. It’s only been a couple of months, but I see such a difference in my body. I’ve lost weight, my arms have toned up and tightened, and I feel so much healthier.
My entire outlook on life has changed. I no longer eat meat, and I am very conscious of everything I eat: no more steaks and fatty or sugary foods. It’s been a complete lifestyle change with the intensity of the exercise and the diet. It’s a much healthier road and one that I am happy to travel.
My staff at work have noticed a difference in my mental attitude; they tell me I’m nicer! Things that used to get under my skin no longer bother me.
This place is family-oriented, which you don’t get in most gyms. You walk up the stairs and everyone knows your name. It’s comfortable, familiar, and a great place to work out!
