CONGRATULATIONS, GUYS!
TAKE ON THE 24-DAY CHALLENGE!
This is Mia Finnegan . . . The head of the North East Team for Advocare . . . the reason I got involved in the first place with the 24-Day Challenge. This was a cover-shoot photo taken in 1995 . . . the day after she won Ms. Fitness Olympia. Scroll down below to see where she is today, and how she is helping us at !MPACT to take our fitness and nutrition to the next level!
This is Mia now . . . a wife, mother and Advocare Advisor . . . Making a difference in so many people’s lives!
24-DAY CHALLENGE: We have a group of about 20 people doing the 24-Day Challenge right now, and they are only a week into the program and are already losing weight! Are you finally ready to take the plunge and lose inches and pounds? We will start your challenge whenever you are ready! At !MPACT, we have taken nutrition and supplements “up a notch” and are excited to introduce the 24-Day Challenge. This program is like no other program we have run before. We are coupling proper nutrition WITH great supplements to help you reach your goals even faster! Through a friend I met at the mentorship in San Diego, I’ve connected with Mia Finnegan, former Ms. Fitness Olympia (pictured above). Back when I was competing actively (back in the late 90’s), Mia could be seen on numerous fitness magazine covers like Muscle & Fitness, MuscleMag & Ironman. I trust her expertise in the fitness and nutrition arena, and I’m so excited to have weekly coaching calls with her. My husband, Michael and I decided to take on the 24-Day Challenge just because we haven’t felt our best, due to all the long hours we put in every day. We both had the desire to decrease body fat to get leaner and stronger. We both finished the challenge losing 9-10 lbs. and our energy levels soaring! Interested in starting this with us? Email: [email protected]
SPEED, AGILITY, STRENGTH & CONDITIONING: We were offering this program to boys and girls (ages 9-14) on Sundays from December through April. However, due to the beautiful weather and spring sports starting up, we will temporarily discontinue this training. We will be sure to keep you posted when it resumes! And if your child is a teenager or even pre-teen (11 or 12) and is an athlete, we would be happy to welcome them into our Elite Athlete program that CONTINUES to run every week on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s at 5:30 p.m. This training consists of speed, agility, strength & conditioning – and will certainly get your teen faster and stronger! And then on Wednesday’s at 5:30 and Friday’s at 4:30 p.m., we offer a Weight-Lifting Session – and teens in this same age group are welcome to participate. These sessions are all guided by a trainer so that age-appropriate weights are applied. Lastly, we want to remind you that we offer a student discount of only $99 for Unlimited Training . . . they can come to it ALL for only $99 per month. And if they are age 15 or older, they can even participate in all of our adult training at no additional cost.
LOOK HOW WELL OUR CLIENTS DID ON !MPACT’S 21-DAY DIET PLAN! If you’d like to try out this scientific diet plan (that includes recipes, shopping lists and meal plans to follow for 21 days), — and get a jump-start on your fitness plan, email: [email protected]. Here are the results from our last group who followed this diet plan to get ready for the summer . . . Some participants were trying to lose as much weight as possible, while others had those last stubborn 3-5 lbs. they couldn’t lose before. . . All the results were amazing!:
Gail B. lost 12.5 pounds and 15.5 inches in just 21 days!
Jena D. lost 5.5 pounds and 6.75 inches in just 21 days!

NEW SEMI-PRIVATE TRAINING OFFERED EVERY MONDAY NIGHT AT 6:30 P.M.! We have had quite a few people ask about Personal Training but thought it would fit their budget better to share it with a small group. This particular time-slot has a minimum of 2 people and a max of 4. You will be coached, guided and spotted by a personal trainer during your 55-minute training session. Cost is only $20 per person and you are guaranteed to have a maximum of 4 people. Have you been thinking about personal training? If so, give this a try!

Camp is only $135 per child/per week, and we offer a $10 discount for siblings.
SEMI-PRIVATE ELITE ATHLETE TRAINING Offered This Summer!: The term Semi-Private means that there is a limited number of participants. In this particular session there will be a minimum of 3 participants and a maximum of 6, and the athletes will perform speed and agility drills, work on proper running form for speed, and work through conditioning circuits using weighted ropes, weighted sleds, TRX Suspension Training, TRX Rip Trainers, medicine balls, slide boards, Plyo-Boxes and MORE! They will also get some helpful nutritional handouts. This training will be for boys and girls, ages 13-17, and will be held from 1:30 – 2:30 p.m. every Monday and Wednesday starting July 1st. If you are interested in reserving a place for your teen athlete, please email Michael for registration form and payment info: [email protected]
30-MINUTE NUTRITIONAL COACHING SESSIONS: !MPACT has been offering our hour and a half, One-on-One Nutritional Sessions since we opened a little over two years ago. Sometimes people really need to sit down and learn the science behind a healthy diet, in addition to mapping out a customized plan for success. So in addition to these hour and a half sessions, !MPACT is now offering 30-Minute Nutritional Coaching Sessions for only $49.00. During this session our trainers will give you a brief overview of our most important nutritional tips, as well as outline a detailed sample diet for you to follow (based on your goals and your food likes and dislikes). You will have the opportunity to ask questions and will leave the session with a great plan of attack!

MAY GROUP TRAINING CALENDAR: Click here to view our May Group Training Calendar. We offer 27+ Group Training Sessions or Classes EVERY WEEK! You can see a description for each of these training sessions on the second page when you click on our calendar.
SHARING TREATS AND RECIPES: At !MPACT we love sharing healthy treats with our Saturday bootcampers. As a nice post-workout treat, I usually make a healthy Greek yogurt parfait or I bake a wholesome cake with added protein powder – or sometimes I make protein drinks to serve with fresh fruit. Starting May 1st, we will continue to serve these fun and healthy post-workout treats on the FIRST SATURDAY OF THE MONTH. Since we have gotten busier (great problem to have!), there isn’t always time for me to bake or prepare every week. Therefore, I will slot off my calendar to do it on the first Saturday of the month – and then we would love to invite any of our friends and clients to share healthy treats on other Saturdays. We’ve had several offers from clients who wish to share their favorite healthy recipes with our Saturday group . . . Great idea! Just let us know which Saturday you’d like to share your treats! LOVE this family environment we’ve created at !MPACT . . . THANK YOU!
DISCOUNT Training & Nutrition Events for Boys Scouts and Girls Scouts: We offer great educational events for scouts . . . and as part of our Pay-It-Forward mission, the charge is minimal per child.

!MPACT MENU AT TENDER LOVIN GRILL (TLG): If any of you haven’t made your way into the restaurant that opened last year at the corner of Rt. 206 and Amwell Road, you are really missing out.

So I met with the owners of TLG, Steve and Maribeth to talk about implementing an !MPACT Menu – which would be delicious foods that are also calorie-conscious. So if you live or work locally in Hillsborough, you can stop in to check out the !MPACT Menu and know you are staying on track with your weight-loss plan. We will keep copies of the !MPACT Menu at our front desk so our clients can pick up lunch or dinner on days when they just don’t have time to cook a healthy meal.

SPORTS PHYSICAL THERAPY: This is a great place to go for any type of physical rehab – and boy, are did a great job on my lower-back pain! They handle everything from ligament sprains to arthritic pain.

Every now and again, it just tightens up and I am in a lot of pain. I heavily rely on the physical therapists at Sports Physical Therapy to get me mobile and pain free again! They have multiple locations, and one of the partners, Jeff Erickson, is a neighbor of mine – great guy! Can’t say enough about what an awesome facility this is!
