Wilmington, North Carolina Kettlebell Instructor Launches HeadSTRONG Athletics Boot Camps

Summary:
HeadSTRONG Athletics, located in Wilmington, North Carolina, holds boot camps focused on kettlebell training to help people burn body fat, gain lean muscle and increase their athletic ability.


November 12th, 2008- Local Wilmington, North Carolina Russian Kettlebell Instructor and fat loss specialist, Shawn Manning, is the founder of HeadSTRONG Athletics, a fitness boot camp for men and women located at McKay Healing Arts on Wrightsville Avenue. The boot camp program promises twice the results in a fraction of the time for a third of the cost of other Wilmington personal training services.

Manning believes that boot camp group classes are the answer to those looking for personal service but don’t want to spend an arm and a leg to get in shape. “The economic situation has taken its toll on all of us. I started these classes with my present one-on-one clients in mind so that they could save money and still enjoy the rewards of personal training. It turns out that fitness enthusiasts of all types love the atmosphere and challenge. The group boot camps not only provide awesome energy and camaraderie, they also allow people an affordable alternative to expensive programs.”

HeadSTRONG Athletics’ integrated strength and conditioning training plus Precision Nutrition system is second to none for helping people burn fat, lose weight fast and improve their athletic abilities. “Our clients are shedding weight, hitting the tennis ball harder and looking better than they have in years.” HeadSTRONG Athletics accomplishes this by focusing on kettlebell training and compound movements. “Our boot camps consist of 45-minute super-charged workouts featuring interval and circuit training. “We use kettlebells, sandbags, heavy ropes and body weight drills instead of machines to get in top shape.” This type of fast paced training, such as the Tabata intervals they use in class, burns nine times more fat than ordinary straight set, long rest periods exercise. Manning is quick to say that although this type of program may not be for everyone, even beginners have great success and are never left behind. “Don’t get fooled into thinking this is too hard for you if you are just starting to workout. Modifications are made everyday so that people feel comfortable easing into exercise.”

HeadSTRONG Athletics has some raving fans, such as Fran Rudolph who claims: “I’ve lost 15 pounds; my clothes are starting to fit again – yeah! And now, I can do much more – biking, kayaking, skiing –to name a few, and just doing regular housework is so mush easier. And, the classes are so much fun. It seems like intense personal training, but with a group – and such nice people – everyone’s so friendly and welcoming. Your training program is definitely part of my life now, and I can’t imagine where I’d be without it!”


The name HeadSTRONG Athletics comes from the belief that everyone has internal athletes that needs to challenge themselves and be aggressive. Some people want to be active to lose 30 pounds, some to move up to the next level in their sport and some to feel like they did in their 20’s. “I believe there are two parts to physical fitness; One being the conditioned body and the other the strong mind. When you become tough physically, a change happens within that prepares you mentally for the next challenge. Being headstrong is as important as looking good. We want to be the ones to facilitate this change with our boot camps.”

HeadSTRONG Athletics offers boot camp classes throughout the day on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. A free one-week trial is available to all newcomers. There will be a FREE Post Thanksgiving Workout for anybody interested in burning off Thursday’s meals at Hugh McRae Park on Friday, November 28th at 9:00 am.
