Transformation Tuesday!!!!

All in the Family...

I don't believe in accidents.  I happened to see this quote before preparing this writeup, which fit the content to a tee!

First off, this duo is not a brother-sister combo. The woman in this picture is his mother!!! They DO say that exercise keeps you looking young, but we won't take ALL the credit for this one . ;)
Although this transformation story is about Malik, the story cannot be told unless we state how he got here.


Iesha has been with Phoenyx for over 3 years, attending boot camps and Zumba classes. She would go to other company's classes  from time to time but would always migrate back, so we've always considered her a 'regular'.  Not too long after, she started to bring her son to class as well and we soon grew accustomed to seeing them both in class. We have many referrals and lots of couples, so people start with us and then bring relatives, spouses, significant others, coworkers and friends. Iesha and Malik are currently our only parent child combination attending class, so they are a special pair. 



Like his mother, Malik is also very active in classes and different programs we offer. He participated in an 8 week challenge for the male warriors of our crew. We had a phone conference with each of the participants and I remember asking Malik what he thought of the food his mother ate and her now lifestyle. He said that was what kick started his journey to eating and being healthier. 


"People don't realize that how they act and what they do around their kids really does affect them, and luckily, that affected me in a good way. "

You never know who is watching. Especially those close to you.

Transformation Tuesday

Here at Phoenyx Fitness, we are starting daily posts to keep our fans and clients updated on the latest with Phoenyx!!!  Mondays are dedicated to announcements and we are excited for the new addition of TRANSFORMATION TUESDAYS!

You've seen before and after pictures on television and advertisements and I'm sure you wondered if these people were real or what they did to lose the weight. So we are featuring REAL people making REAL changes, while maintaining a REAL and normal life.

Our first feature is Tanisha. She's been with Phoenyx since January and started with us on a New Year's 6 week challenge.  This challenge featured a program designed to trigger maximum fat loss in a short amount of time.  In just 6 short weeks, Tanisha lost over 10 pounds and brought her body fat down from over 5%.  This was done implementing our program and making some changes to her diet, while attending our classes, mostly high intensity, throughout the week.


Tanisha was preparing for a trip to and not only looked better but felt better and confident enough to sport her bikini on the beach as a celebration on a successful 6 weeks. But when she returned, she was high on loss from her first challenge and was ready for the next!

This next challenge was a 10 week BIKINI challenge with a photo shoot opportunity on the line. What would make this challenge more of a struggle hinges on the length of time. A month and a half?....pretty doable. 2 and a half months? Sounds a bit more intimidating, but we were excited to give it a go. Over 20 ladies signed up for this challenge and the week after Valentine's Day, committed to 10 weeks of clean eating, exercise, and a healthier lifestyle.


Tanisha knew she had to take this to the next level and opted in on the 10 day cleanse provided by Advocare, one of our sponsored products.














With her exercise regiment, she left nothing to chance, and joined any class she could be a part of, from the 2 day a week high intensity bootcamp style classes to the strength training classes we provided once a week at one of our private training gyms.

Tanisha began the second part of this journey at 152 pounds and 27.9% body fat. She didn't drop as many pounds this time but brought her body fat down again another 5%.  It's so important to measure your body fat in addition to your weight. Changes in composition can happen in many areas as you can see from Tanisha's pictures.


  This in roughly 4 months time. What's next? She has already signed up for our summer bootcamp, AND is interested in our fitness team. Could we see Tanisha on the fitness competition stage? : ) With these results, ANYTHING is possible! Congratulations Tanisha!!!!
