Recipe of the Week - Cajun Spiced Chicken

on Thursday, 17 May 2012. Posted in Recipes, Westminster, Brighton, Thornton

Cajun ChickenHey everyone! My recipe of the week has turned into recipe of the month lately. I am sorry I have not been posting recipes more regularly. I am going be better about it this summer though, I promise!

With the temperature outside heating up, Dave and I have been grilling a lot more. I found this recipe in one of my cookbooks the other day and ever since we tried it we have been hooked! It seems to be on our menu once a week now. Give it a try with some steamed basmati rice and a simple green salad and you soon you will be a believer too! Because let's face it...plain grilled chicken get's boring after a while.

 

Ingredients:

6 medium chicken breast filets (you can do less like Dave and I do but then you will just have extra spice mix ready for the next time you want to make this delicious chicken!)

1/3 cup butter (less if you are only doing a few chicken breasts)

1tsp garlic powder

2tsp onion powder

2tsp cayenne pepper(less if you can't handle the heat!)

2tsp paprika

1/4tsp ground cumin

1tsp dried thyme

1 and 1/2tsp each salt and ground black pepper

Here is more information on the Children's Hospital Colorado Foundation and Children's Miracle Network.

Fit Soldiers Summer KidFit Camps

Written by David Mura on Wednesday, 25 April 2012. Posted in Thornton, Information

It is finally here!

Fit Soldiers KidFit Camp is the much anticipated and long overdue program for your kids. It will begin this summer!

You all know the impact our program is having on your lives in countless areas including your physical, mental, and emotional health. For many of you this has already begun to trickle down to your family.

I get especially excited when your kids begin to play "Mr. Dave" in our kids room and at home. You have told us some awesome stories such as your kids designing a boot camp in your backyard and doing their child like copy cat of jumping jacks, pushups, and other exercises.

There is no doubt that your children will be impacted for the rest of their lives by the major lifestyle changes you have made for you and your families.

We have been slaving away doing research and going through training on the cutting edge of youth fitness. We have absorbed some valuable feedback from you and based on that feedback we have designed a program like no other that will have a direct and lasting impact on your children.

You don't expect your kids to pay the mortgage, put food on the table, or worry about adult 'stuff' so why would you expect us to train them like adults? That's why we have a program full of endless fun designed specifically for kids!

Our program is perfect for both athletic and non-athletic children. We will give progressions and regressions for exercises so that all ages and athletic abilities can participate. So what should you expect from our KidFit Camps?

Your kids will:

  • Have fun interacting with other kids their age
  • Learn teamwork and sportsmanship
  • Develop a foundation for athletic movement patterns such as squatting, bending, pushing, pulling, and twisting
  • Develop speed, agility, quickness, strength, and power
  • Increase mobility, range of motion, and flexibility
  • Lose weight
  • Develop healthy habits
  • And Much More...

New Program! Semi-Private Personal Training

on Saturday, 17 March 2012. Posted in Westminster, Information

Personalized Programming A Fraction of the Cost

“FINALLY!  A Fitness Program That Combines the Social Support and Cost Effective Structure of a Boot Camp With the Individualization and Extra Coaching That Personal Training Provides!!”

Introducing:
Semi-Private Personal Training

From the desk of: David Mura
Owner of Fit Soldier Fitness Revolution
FSFR Semi-Private Training

Dear Fit Soldier Fitness Revolution Family and Friends,

Personal Training in the Westminster, Thornton, Northglenn Area Will NEVER be the Same Again!

YES!  That is a very bold statement, and I’m more than prepared to back it up.

Until now, personal training programs in the North Denver area have been built on a one-on-one personal training model.  In other words, one personal trainer works with one client…typically for a half hour to an hour personal training session.

I’m here to tell you that model, for the most part, is stale and OBSOLETE!

One-on-One Personal training is boring…

One-on-One Personal training lacks energy…

AND, one-on-one personal training is missing one of the most important factors for weight loss success… SOCIAL SUPPORT.

Now, on the flip side, One-on-One Personal Training DOES PROVIDE very individualized programming and a very detailed level of coaching.  Hold that thought…

Right now, boot camps are all the rage in the fitness industry, and rightfully so.  Heck, I know because I run the best boot camp in the North Metro area.  icon smile Group Personal Training

Boot Camps, when done right, are extremely efficient and incredibly effective for weight loss and fitness.  Plus, they’re just WAY MORE FUN than training alone.

The only downside I see with boot camps is the loss of one-on-one individual attention and highly customized training that Personal Training provides.  Up until now, it’s pretty much been one or the other, but that’s all about to change thanks to…

Semi-Private Personal Training at
Fit Soldiers Fitness Revolution

Semi-Private Training is fun…YOU WILL HAVE A BLAST!

Semi-Private Training is full of energy…YOU WILL FEEL ALIVE!

Semi-Private Training provides social support…YOU WILL MAKE GREAT FRIENDS!

Most importantly…SEMI-PRIVATE TRAINING WORKS!

 


 

So What Does Semi-Private Training Look Like!?!

  • Individual Goal Setting Session
  • Personalized Training Program Based On Your Individual Goals
  • Semi-Private Setting, 2-4 People
  • Personal Trainer Attention. Ensuring form technique, and progressions.
  • Guaranteed Results!

Our REVOLUTIONARY Group Personal Training Program at Fit Soldiers Fitness Revolution is the perfect blend of Boot Camp and One-on-One Personal Training.  It features individualized programming in a small group (max of 4) with all the energy and excitement of a boot camp.  A typical one-hour group personal training session will  generally look like this:

10 minutes of Tissue Quality work to eliminate nagging aches, pains, and muscle imbalances.

10 minutes of Corrective Exercises to fix old injuries and get you performing the “game of life” at your very best.

5 minute Dynamic Warm-up using functional exercises that will get you moving like a kid again.

5 minutes of Core Stability and Tummy Tightening for your best abs and butt ever!

20 minutes of Metabolic Circuit Training, strength training featuring body weight training along with all the latest and greatest fitness equipment (resistance bands, kettlebells, med-balls, TRX suspension trainers, sandbags, battling ropes, dumbbells, and more!)

5 minute “Finisher” to crank your metabolism through the roof (burn lots of fat), and leave you feeling amped up & ready to take on the day

5 minute Flexibility Circuit to relax your body and get you feeling light and loose all day.

Fit Soldiers Finest : Kathy Thomas

on Monday, 16 January 2012. Posted in Testimonials, Northglenn

The Motivated, Dedicated, and Consistent Kathy Thomas!

Here are just a few examples of the sacrifices and adjustments it takes to make results happen.

Kathy has come to class on her birthday in a snow storm while her daughter was begging her to come home and have cake.

She has gone from 8oz. of water a day to "actually thirsty and wanting to drink water".

The humble Kathy has come a long way and knows that there will need to be sacrifices in order to get stronger, leaner, and better each day!

Amazing job Kathy! Welcome to the Fit Soldiers Finest!

Are You Winning Today?

Written by David Mura on Monday, 05 December 2011. Posted in Westminster, Motivation

Welcome Monday!

How many of us are excited for Monday. Probably not too many as our culture has us hating them like the plague. Yeah OK we just came of the weekend of relaxation but how are you going to approach today?

Your day is is as good or as bad as you want to make it.  If you want to take on the day like its a crappy day...guess what, your going to have a crappy day.

How about you change that crappy mindset and take on today like its the best thing to happen since sliced bread?  If you take on the day with a positive mindset, with a winning attitude then guess what.  You win.

You will accomplish more today than everybody else that's stuck in their own self created rut and actually enjoy it.

So get your head out of the ditch, forget about the "case of the Monday's" and take accountability for your attitude and have an AWESOME day!

Here is a good friend of mine Rocky Balboa giving you a good life lesson! Check it out!
