OHIO, USA — We are just one month away from the finale of the Super Fitness Weight Loss Challenge, and our challengers are working hard to make some changes.
Our Super Fitness Weight Loss Challenge host, Kelly Heidbreder, has upped the toughness meter on this month's challenge with a HIIT workout.
HIIT stands for High Intensity Interval Training. The challengers will tackle seven intense skills, taking a break after each one, until Kelly says stop. This challenge is called the "Minute to Mean It Challenge."
The first station is the rope pull, where challengers pull as hard as they can for one minute, followed by a one-minute rest.
The next station is the lateral raise, with ladies using five-pound weights in each hand and men using ten pounds each. After a minute of intense workout, they take another one-minute break.
Still working the upper body, the challengers move on to the lateral pull machine, where they see how many they can do in one minute, before taking a one-minute break.
The next skills are the Air Dyne bike, bicep curls, box squats and ball slams.
Congratulations to our top challengers: fourth place Ron Riffle, third place Lori Cook-Gearhart, second place Nikki Orlowski, and challenge winner Gina Lundquist.
In addition, we also handed out the Game-Changer Award, which recognizes the challenger who has made major changes in their life. It's not just a routine, it's a lifestyle. Tracy Harris is the winner of this award, as she has been involved in all events, works out with a trainer at Super Fitness, and she coaches others along the way.
“Get serious about your weight loss journey right now," Kelly said. "Step out of your comfort zone and give it all you’ve got."
