Monday Mindset – “I didn’t want to be the fat mom..” 846 540 Bryce Henson

Monday Mindset – “I didn’t want to be the fat mom..”

I am excited to share some client success stories with you over the next 6 weeks from our locations here in Yorba Linda and Mission Viejo Fit Body Boot Camp’s.

 

But first, I have a few questions for you..

 

Have you ever felt embarrassed of the way you looked?

How about uncomfortable in your own skin?


Did you ever have the feeling of wanting to be a better spouse or parent while making your kids proud?


How about “not wanting to be the fat mom or dad?”

 

If so, you are not alone. 

 

In fact, that’s exactly how Heather felt before she started Fit Body Boot Camp.

 

Work, kids, life… it’s a lot and she admittedly hadn’t made the time for her.


But that changed when she decided enough was enough, and walked through our doors.

 

She then tapped into the support of our coaches, and put in the work. She created a consistent schedule with the 5:15am session daily. And in the process, achieved incredible success with a group of supportive campers she now calls friends!

 

Please watch her 3 minute video story below and some words of inspiration:

 

“I lost 50 lbs. And the biggest benefit is how I feel. I can throw on a pair of jeans and be happy.

 

I can now take pictures with my kids and not be embarrassed. The biggest benefit is the personal good feeling inside!”

Monday Mindset: Monday gratitude! 725 281 Bryce Henson

Monday Mindset: Monday gratitude!

How was your weekend?
I hope you had some time to rest and relax, all while still being productive.
Mine was exceptionally special as we conducted our quarterly training with our Yorba Linda and Mission Viejo teams. This was planned strategically so we could discuss and “unpack the box” from our World Conference training from a few weeks ago.
And most importantly, because we just finished our 2020/2021 transition from being physically closed, to train in place modality, to a hybrid model throughout June, and now having fully transitioned to normal boot camp aka station work in July.
So much in motion and many changes for you and for us!
Being such, it was important for our team to connect, bond, celebrate, and realign on our processes, support for you, our clients & the community.
In reflection, these last 17 months have been such a ride! That’s also the same for you and humanity.
In fact, it would have told me in January of 2020 what would have happened, the adversity we would have all faced, the shutdown downs, and economic contraction etc. I would have had a very hard time believing you.
And would have had a VERY hard time envisioning we would still be here supporting you, our clients, and the community.
But because of our strong team and coaches, and most importantly because of YOU, we are here rebuilding!
So today I wanted to acknowledge you for your support. To acknowledge you for making your health and fitness a priority. To acknowledge you for your openness to embracing and driving change which is 1 of FBBC’s core values. To acknowledge you for trusting us & leaning on us as your fitness coaches being that your success fills our cup!
So today’s call to action is to pay it forward by sharing some gratitude to someone deserving in your life.
I definitely know there are 1-2 people that you should send some positive vibes and acknowledgement of gratitude their way.
Yes, you are busy, but take the time to let them know how much they have meant to you and how grateful you are for them being in your life.
When you do, your life will be enriched. Let’s make it a GREAT week!

Monday Mindset: The American Dream Story.. 🇺🇸 547 510 Bryce Henson

Monday Mindset: The American Dream Story.. 🇺🇸

“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!” – Statue of Liberty 🇺🇸


This is one of my favorite quotes as we are a country made of hard-working immigrants and I am extremely proud of that. I am patriotic to the core, unapologetic about it and hope you are too, for good reason. 🇺🇸

 

I also hope you enjoyed the 4th of July and celebrated with your family! 🇺🇸

 

And like many of our ancestors migrating for a better life, my great grandparents on both sides escaped Communist Poland. 

 

They came with the clothes on their backs, no money in their pockets, or the ability to speak a lick of English.

 

But with the American dream to escape oppression of communism/socialism and pursue capitalism (aka a selfless system which incentivizes production and where you must add value in others lives first in order to be successful) and FREEDOM that we have here in the USA! 

 

This is what has made our country great! 🇺🇸

 

And yes, our country has its fair share of problems that need to be resolved.

 

But it always will. As our country consists of flawed humans.

 

But unlike the media wants you to believe, this is still the land of opportunity and we have it very, very good. 

 

In fact, having lived in 3 continents and visited dozens of countries with many to go, I know first hand how great we have it. 🇺🇸


And while our freedoms have been recently tested which we need to continue to protect, the American dream is still alive and well for those who want to pursue it. The Founder and President of Fit Body Boot Camp, is living proof of that, having escaped Communist Russia for a better life. 

 

And so am I.

 

And as my incredible team shared the news last week I was appointed “CEO” of Fit Body Boot Camp last week.

 

Truthfully, part of me is still in complete disbelief. 

 

But the other part of me knows that this is just another American dream story of hard work, passion and freedom. 🇺🇸

 

So in today’s message I want to share with you the video (and letter that I read) of my “CEO acceptance speech” at our World Conference with nearly 400 attendees which closed the event. 

 

For clarity, the message was directed at my HQ team initially, then our live audience. 

 

And please know it is also very much directed at YOU as well.

 

As without YOU, without YOUR dedication to your health/fitness and without YOUR trust in our team, this wouldn’t be possible which I am extremely grateful for and completely see. I will always remember and value that. 🙏 


So I hope you receive some inspiration and motivation from this perspective of a guy starting out life in a trailer, with an abusive & alcoholic father and with very humble beginnings (for American standards).

 

And that with incredibly hard work, some luck, an AMAZING team and clients like YOU, he has been able to achieve the “American Dream” which is what I want for you and us all! 🇺🇸

Monday Mindset – Michael Jordan’s fitness coach 1024 763 Bryce Henson

Monday Mindset – Michael Jordan’s fitness coach

Happy Monday!


This weekend was absolutely incredible! 

 

We brought some of our leaders and coaches to Scottsdale Arizona to our 2021 Fit Body World Conference which was absolutely epic.


We had nearly 400 attendees and it was extremely inspiring getting together after having to miss last year’s conference.

 

There were some incredible speakers including the keynote and friend Tim Grover, who was the personal trainer and fitness coach to Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Dwayne Wade, Charles Barkley, and many other professional NBA legends.

 

Tim taught on developing a strong and winning mindset to ensure we can overcome adversity and support you, our clients, and the community at a higher level. 

 

It was truly inspiring to see our team dive into the content with the goal of supporting you at a higher level.


And that’s my message today that I wanted to share.

 

As I was reminded that when the leader gets better, everyone gets better. And you are the leader of yourself and your family. 

 

So today’s call to action is to take care of and continue to invest in yourself by moving and eating well consistently. Seek out inspirational content to learn from that will provide you knowledge and skill growth on a regular basis.

 

As when you do, that’s the biggest act of selflessness and where fulfillment resides as you are better equipped to help your loved ones.

Let’s make it a GREAT week!

 

PS it looks like my awesome team shared some news about my new role in our global franchise so will share more info with some takeaway value points for you next Monday

Monday Mindset: Investing in you… 861 582 Bryce Henson

Monday Mindset: Investing in you…

Happy Monday!
Summer is officially here and many good things are on the horizon. We just finished our Spring Challenge and results are being tallied!
We also have our Fit Body Annual conference this weekend in Scottsdale Arizona after a miss last year due to COVID.
And after a tough 2020, this conference is much needed and will be an incredible training event with nearly 400 attendees from North America registered.
We also made the decision to invest and bring our Facility Leaders and some coaches. So this will mean better training, coaching, and programming for you as we look ahead to serve you and our community at a higher level.
And with this in mind, I am reminded of the power and importance of investing in yourself.
As a first in my early years of business ownership and humbling myself, I was very hesitant to invest in extra training or reduce boot camp hours when needed. This was due to the time, financial resources, and due to the “short term pinch for clients and business”.
However what I realized with time, is that when we do invest in our team (even though short term it’s uncomfortable), long term we are able to provide you MUCH better service.  And this directly equates to better coaching and results for you and our community.
This same investment mindset is what has made our locations some of the best in the country and certainly strong enough to endure COVID when 40% of the industry has vanished.
So that is exactly my message to you today.
Just like investing into the conference the expenses of logistics for a big team; working out and eating clean is an investment.  It does take time, energy, and money to invest in you.
And if you don’t make the investment in yourself… then you cannot serve your family, friends, and co-workers at the highest level possible.
So my call to action today is to take a step back. Realize and accept that investing in yourself is a GOOD thing and it’s NOT selfish. Yes, it’s uncomfortable in the short term to sacrifice time and money.
But when you do, you will have the strength, stamina, and energy to be of more service and value to your loved ones.
And to me, that’s a life well-lived.

Monday Mindset: The only 1 true source of wealth… 660 361 Bryce Henson

Monday Mindset: The only 1 true source of wealth…

Happy Monday!
I cannot believe June is already halfway through. In a blink of an eye and we are almost halfway finished with 2021.
A friendly reminder to live with urgency as our time is ticking.
With that in mind, I heard something last week when I was talking to a colleague of mine and it resonated so much, I wanted to pass it along to you.
The quote went something along the lines of…
“A healthy person has a million dreams, wishes, and desires for their life.
However, a sick person only has 1 dream, which is to regain their health.”
Incredibly true words.
So, today’s call to action is to prioritize and invest in your only source of wealth which is your health & fitness.
And when you do that, the world opens to you!
Let’s make it a GREAT week!

Monday Mindset: D Day 777 555 Bryce Henson

Monday Mindset: D Day

Yesterday was the 77th anniversary of the infamous D Day where allied troops from the US, Great Britain, and Canada stormed the beaches of Normandy France to overtake Adolf Hilter and his Nazi regime. 

I can only imagine what it would have been like to be one of those soldiers who were ordered to invade on June 6, 1944.

I am sure nothing short of absolute hell.

And while that thought deeply moves me. It serves as a great reminder that freedom isn’t free.

It serves as a reminder that we must live our lives with passion and purpose. As there have been many that came before whose lives ended shortly to protect the freedoms we now enjoy.

And that can never be taken for granted.

So if you didn’t take the opportunity this weekend, please take a moment to remember the fallen. 

To acknowledge the incredible people who came before us and stormed the awful beaches that day. They did it for you and I and so that we could live a life of freedom and purpose.

So today’s call to action is for you to move your body. Eat good foods that will keep you nourished and healthy. Hydrate properly and get your sleep. 

This focus on your health and fitness will be the foundation of the value you can offer the world.

As when you are in a good place of mind, body, and soul, you can be of service to others by paying it forward to make our world a better place.

If we do this, the lives lost will not be in vain. Rather, their legacy will live on.

But it’s up to you and I.

Let’s make this week count.

Monday Mindset: We Remember 594 811 Bryce Henson

Monday Mindset: We Remember

I hope you are enjoying your Memorial Day weekend.
And really hope you take a moment to remember the meaning.
While he doesn’t understand yet, I’m excited to teach my nephew Ryder about some things I’ve learned over the years as he grows up.
I’ll make sure he sees the value of exploring the world. To take risks, and push comfort zones. This is where growth and happiness reside.
And to ensure he sees value in constantly seeking new experiences and learning about foreign cultures.
As there’s a lot to learn on this beautiful planet.
And with this perspective, he will also see first-hand how fortunate we are to enjoy the freedoms our country has to offer despite its challenges.
And to ensure he knows never take our freedom or liberty for granted. As it’s always being tested, and this past year was a stark reminder.
After all, this is the land of the free, BECAUSE of the brave.
Thank you to all those incredible men, women, and their families who paid the ultimate sacrifice.

Monday Mindset: Graduation Advice 420 200 Bryce Henson

Monday Mindset: Graduation Advice

It’s late spring and graduation season is in the air.

It’s so exciting to hear about the children of our client’s & community ready to finish off their last semester of schooling. 

And then, are becoming ready to take that next step after graduation!

With that framework in mind, I watched a few commencement addresses on YouTube over the weekend.

And a quote from Denzel Washington addressing a graduation class some years ago, really struck me.

It actually inspired me so much that I wanted to pass along for you to get value!

“Nothing in life is worthwhile unless you take risks. Fall forward. Every failed experiment is 1 step closer to success.” – Denzel Washington

Monday Mindset: The Man in the Arena 768 1024 Bryce Henson

Monday Mindset: The Man in the Arena

Happy Monday!

I was sent the included gift a couple weeks ago from a dear friend and owner of Fresno Fit Body Boot Camp. She was appreciative of some support we provided her team and clients.

 So today wanted to pass this gift on to you in the hope you also receive the benefit.

And as it turns out, this poem written by Theodore Roosevelt is my 2nd favorite of all time.

And it is especially relevant if you have ever led a company, a project, a family, a team, or a group of people at any time in your life.

As when you lead, criticism is a law of the universe and you will certainly need thick skin and tough mindset to navigate through it..

So digest it, and then please tuck this away and read it often. 

Let’s have a great week!
