Today’s Woodbury Personal Training Fat Loss Transformation Spotlight is on Kerry Larson.  Kerry has been attending Kinetic Edge / RAD Boot Camp classes for over a year.  However, in the last 12 weeks he decided it was time to “Crank it!”  Here he is with a hard core kick in the ass of what can be accomplished in 12 weeks.

Here’s what Kerry has to say about classes at RAD Boot Camp…

I was frustrated with my physique and have been for many years.  After reading about kettlebell training, I attended my first kettlebell class 36 hours later.  I got my ass kicked (and enjoyed it) in my very first workout after thinking I was in some type of decent physical condition.

In the last 12 weeks I have lost 11% body fat, 6.5 inches 2 jean sizes and 28+ pounds all while increasing my strength and improving my cardio. Overall I have realized more goals in the last 18 months than I had ever attained In the past 20 years!

Kerry Larson – Bayport, MN

Co-Owner and COO Fresh & Natural Foods
Husband & Dad

Kerry in the HOT SEAT…

Brad:  Take me back a year or two …where you were physically, mentally, etc…  Everything previous to RAD Boot Camp / Kinetic Edge / Kettlebells?

Kerry:  Prior to Kinetic Edge, I had been doing a fairly consistent routine of weight lifting and spinning classes at our local fitness club. 3 to 5 mornings a week of spinning classes for cardio(45 minutes) followed by a 4 day split of weight lifting . Day 1 chest, tri’s, legs….. Day 2 back , bi’s, shoulders. Days 3 and 4 repeated 1 and 2. Same thing day in day out. Very boring. Overall, consistent workouts, but when I left the gym it all went downhill. I figured that if I worked out that much I could eat pretty freely.   WRONG ANSWER!!!!!!!!! Bottom line…a lot of work for minimal overall results. Mentally, I was frustrated with my physique and have been for many years. Diets had worked in combination with exercise, but like all diets they eventually fail…….. Lifestyle and mindset changes work!!! That is where you Brad, came in to the picture and turned things upside down

Brad:  What were your biggest frustrations about your body?

Kerry:  The size of my gut!

Brad:  How did you meet Brad / come into contact with RAD Boot Camp / Kinetic Edge / Kettlebell Training?

Kerry:  My wife had brought home a copy of a GQ magazine in the attempt to ” try and dress me up a little bit”. During the course of my “courtesy reading” of this copy, I came across an article about kettlebell training. After reading the article, I knew this was something I wanted to get involved with. After going online and searching it out I came upon Kinetic Edge, picked up the phone called and talked to you a couple of times. After that, I came in for a couple of intro sessions and was hooked into this style of training.

Brad:  Were you skeptical to try RAD Boot Camp / Kinetic Edge / Kettlebell training?…Why?

Kerry:To start with…no. After reading about kettlebell training , I was excited and ready to go. Then I attended my first class….. 36 hours later, I became skeptical because of the pain I felt. I realized that I had just got my ass kicked in my very first work -out after thinking I was in some type of physical condition. Another…..WRONG ANSWER!
Not only was I now pissed, I was hooked!

Brad:  What was different about RAD Boot Camp from anything else you’ve tried?

Kerry:  Being able to get a complete body workout in 45-50 minutes while never repeating the same routine twice.

Brad:  Were there any myths busted for you at the boot camp?  (i.e. women getting bulky, men participating in an “step aerobics class”).

Kerry:  The only myth busted was the one that I thought that I was somewhat in shape.

Brad:  Discuss your thoughts on the Accelerated Fat Loss Eating Plan.  Did it change your thoughts about food?  Is it a plan you can continue to follow?

Kerry:  The plan works if you follow it. More importantly, it is, and has become for me a lifestyle change. If you are going to change yourself, you are the one in control. There are no reasons that you can’t change, they would only be excuses. Regarding my thoughts on food, the old saying “eat to live, do not live to eat” has become a reality. The Eating Plan is one that, at its core, any person can follow as I intend to.

Brad:  What specific changes have you seen in your body/ confidence / attitude?  (clothes size change, inches lost, body fat lost, pounds lost)?

Kerry:  I have reduced inches off my body, increased my strength and improved my cardio capacity while realizing goals in 18 months that I have never attained over the past 20 years.

Brad:  What’s your favorite body part now AFTER your transformation?  Why?

Kerry:  Abs. It has always been the most visible weakness.

Brad:  What is your #1 “secret” as to why you finally got the results you were looking for?

Kerry:  I changed my eating habits while maintaining an aggressive workout schedule with you.

Brad:  What would you tell someone like yourself who is on the fence about starting RAD Boot Camp / Kinetic Edge classes?

Kerry:  Get off the fence and get in here. Follow the program and it will change your life.

Brad:  Sum up RAD Boot Camp / Kinetic Edge classes in 5 WORDS OR LESS…

Kerry:  Intense, Fun, Unique, Result Oriented

Kerry “Cranked it” for during the 12-week Million Inch Challenge.  Props to you Kerry!
