Why Bounce Back Fitness... Why BUNGEE FITNESS?

You are probably wondering what is bungee fitness and why should I try it? I thought the same thing. In fact, I thought I'd end up bouncing off a wall or killing myself somehow! I am here to say neither of those things happened.

I feel like you should know a little bit about me and why I chose bungee fitness and decided to bring it to Mukilteo. I am a 50 something mom/grandma that has adult children and grandchildren. I have never found a workout that I enjoyed and wanted to stick with for the long haul- they were boring, too long, too hot, hurt my feet, etc... I am not a toothpick and I am short; again, not the idea of who I saw at the gym, so I didn't want to go. I found some success walking Costco and lost some weight. It may sound silly but it worked for me. Last Fall I heard about bungee fitness, watched a BUNCH of videos online and asked my best friend if she'd go with me to try this crazy thing out. Lucky for me, she's almost always game to try my crazy ideas. We had a couple choices- Vancouver, BC, Vancouver, WA or Spokane. In December we chose Vancouver, WA where we attending two classes at Recoil Gym with Krista!

The first class is really awkward- Krista says let it get weird- which it will! You are getting used to moving in a harness, spinning in circles (planned and not planned), jumping, and laughing- a lot of laughing. During the laughing, you get a good idea of what this bungee thing is all about. It's about being able to move in ways you may not have thought you could anymore, while getting a workout, while having a BUNCH of FUN! The next day we went back for our second flight- I was hooked! The second class you find that you are more comfortable in the harness, you know (a little bit) how to move in the harness, and you are more at ease trying new things (like flying!).

On our way home, I was talking with my friend and asked her what she thought about opening a studio by home. You see, this is the FIRST workout that I could see myself doing regularly! I didn't hurt after- I was sore from doing things I may not have done since high school, but that was ok and different.

For the next few months, we looked at dozens of locations, trying to find the right spot for my studio. Lynnwood, Everett, Mill Creek, and then we found our perfect spot in Mukilteo. I am so excited to open this studio and bring bungee fitness to our area. I hope you will join me on my journey to fitness, while finding a fun workout, that will make you sweat, get a bit sore, hopefully make some friends and who knows, maybe even find a level of fitness that you haven't seen in a while!

Hope to fly with you soon.
