Today I am writing about a really wonderful place and how "it all began at Pure Power Bootcamp." I chose that as my title to my blog today because so many things really did begin here. For those of you that may not know my academic background, in a nutshell I attended art school in San Francisco and it was there that I was trained to always have a journal so I could record and stay in tune with all the things that would inspire my little heart to design beautiful clothing. After the first semester it became natural to carry a journal/notebook where ever I went and record my thoughts. With that mentioned, it was only natural for me to keep a journal about my journey of when I first started at Pure Power Bootcamp. With this first blog I hope not only to inspire but somehow reach all those that have goals and dreams or if they were like me when I started, may not know just yet how BIG they really can dream once they start a Tour of Duty at Pure Power Bootcamp NYC. Above is my journal and below you will find my first entry...Enjoy and I'll keep you posted on the next one soon...

March 2010:
It all began Monday March 15th at 5:30am...
Day 1: Umm... ok so I started the bootcamp today and it was quite difficult. We did a lot of cardio non-stop. A lot of sit-ups and I am totally embarrased because I just didn't realize how incredibly out of shape I am. I couldn't even do 5 let alone 1 sit up. Besides that, I felt like throwing up a couple of times. Not to mention I felt like a looser because I was totally the weakest link of the group. There are two trainers and they both seem quite intense (Russo/Nicio - not sure if I'm spelling that correctly) Anyhow, I'm not sure if I'll make it to the 6th week. I am in total pain all over and can barley move my entire body. I've never done anything so physically challenging. I just hope I'll be able to do all this. Loosing weight seems like it is going to be a lot more difficult then I had really ever imagined. I hope I'll be able to do all this and be the size 0/2 that was I was before. Also, besides that I can't help but feel really tired; not to mention hungry after the workout. I really hope all this works...
Honor. Trust. Respect. Integrity. Duty. Loyalty. Power. Courage. Diginity. Wisdom. Pride.
"Comfort is an illusion. A false security bred from familiar things and familiar ways. It narrows the mind, weakens the body, and robs the soul of spirit and determination. Comfort is neither welcome nor tolerated here."
