Coach SYLeave a comment

This week started a new four weeks at the Columbia Fitness Boot Camp. Somehow, with all that I do, I’m still able to find the balance.   🙂  Please know that it is a work in progress though.

Haha!! After week one, I am noticing a few small changes in my body. I actually picked up a heavier weight in class on Monday 🙂 .
