Saturday we did another 5k run, this time with a whole team from Totally New You Personal Training Studio! We were at the Brevard Music Center for the 4th annual White Squirrel Run put on by the Brevard Rotary Club. Here is a quick update from Kym and some great running pictures.

Running is addictive! Especially when you have such great people to run with

This was my second 5k and it was a harder course. Thanks to Dave Brodie I cut my time from 37:41 to 34:15! I love the way I feel after the run (once the nausea passes of course! =) The feeling is fantastic! And I thank Brodie, Crystal, J-Lo and Sean for being there to share this event with me.

You guys rock!

Crystal Perrow Transformation Update 3

Posted on May 26, 2011 by David Hoffmaster Posted in Success Stories Leave a comment

Here is yet another awesome success story update from one of our Totally New You Personal Training Clients, Crystal Perrow. I am simply going to post some of her Facebook comments, along with an incredible transformation photo series.

“wooo buddy! Down 7lbs since April 26th! Totaling 12lbs doesn’t sound like a lot but it sure looks like a lot more. Muscle baby! Packing on the muscle …

I’m going to go take more photos tonight …

HOLY CRAP! I can’t believe I did this! This is truly amazing! 12 inches or so gone!

I’m seriously just staring at this picture because I cannot believe how much my body has changed in JUST A MONTH! You know I was really in a funk from Jan-Feb but in March I really honed in and found my motivation and stuck with it! I am so proud of myself…

(asked how she was doing this) Working with a wellness/personal training studio. Kym Roberts is my trainer …

I just pulled up my last year’s before and after and I blew last year’s results outta the water! WOW is all I have to say!”

Just as a side note (from David), Crystal Kirkland Perrow the big difference seems to have come when you Stopped focusing on weight loss, and started focusing on an athletic goal. Looks are a Side Effect, not the primary goal. Looking smoking good is a great side effect though =)

We have several teams formed for the USMC Mud Run in Columbia SC on October 15th, and she has been working her butt off with Kym getting ready for it.

In addition to being a results badass, Crystal is one of the best graphic designers I know! We just redesigned our whole site around her header artwork. You Rock Crystal!

Here is a quick Facebook update from Amber Albright, who just lost 6 dress sizes and 17 pounds at Totally New You Personal Training Studio!

“David Hoffmaster and Kym Roberts had me set a goal on March 10th. My goal was that I would be a size 10 (was then 14), and 150 lbs (was then 165) by June 1st. I am happy to say that I am now 148 lbs, and a size 8 … two weeks early!

I am now back to the size i was (which i haven’t seen since) when I left the Marine Corps 7 years ago.”

Here is just a quick post about one of our favorite clients John Arriati (65 years young) running his 26th consecutive race in San Fransisco. I will just post his comments from Facebook here with a few pics. Enjoy!

‎”1985 to 2011 – 26 years! This is it! The end of my commitment to run the Bay to Breakers in SF until it’s 100th anniversary with my friend Tony. Live thorugh this one and it is y last. Time to head out!

In 1985 I made a pact with my friend Tony to run the Bay To Breakers 12K in SF till the 100th. Today was the 100th and our 26th yr to run it. My goal was to run the entire race, including the steep Hayes St hill, in 90 mins or less. I did it in 77:52 mins!

Thanks to Totally New You for the workouts that built up my strength and stamina. In my head I heard, Mistress Kym saying “Just a little more to the top of the hill – DON’T QUIT!“; J-Lo saying “You can do it!; and saw Lisa with a contorted look of pain, yet not giving up, which inspired me to do same.”

PB&J Fun Run – Kyms First 5k

Posted on May 11, 2011 by David Hoffmaster Posted in Community Leave a comment

This past weekend we helped out with the PB&J Fun Run at Rugby Middle School in Mills River NC. It was a very fun day! I talked Kym into running it… 12 hours before =)

Here is her account:

The #167 is my new favorite number! That was my number in my very first 5k EVER! That was one of the most intense days of my life. I have never been a runner, so the feelings I had crossing the finish line were overwhelming! I felt exhaustion, joy, nauseous, but most of all the sense of accomplishment. It was fantastic and I am looking forward to my next 5k in 3 weeks!

I am usually the one pushing and motivating our clients, but I will admit that if it hadn’t been for my running buddy, David Brodie, I would not have made it all the way. Thank you Brodie! And to all of you runners, I BOW DOWN TO YOU!! : )
