FP Athlete Program Client Corinne gets FIRST place in a local road race! YES, we love it when our clients take their passion for fitness OUTSIDE. We are thrilled to share that Corinne of British Columbia, Canada sweated her way to an impressive 49:58 time over 10km and earned first place. She has worked hard on a major health transformation and hasn't stopped setting goals along the way. In this case she only trained for 9 weeks and look what she was able to accomplish! Congratulations! Follow Corinne's incredible transformation, and ongoing fitness goals! Instagram @Rinny_66 Facebook https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=771864996161758

Coach Fatima paid a visit to our Blessed Little Sister Liza

Last weekend our Blessed Little Sister Liza competed in a synchronized swimming event and achieved a personal best! Her coach was thrilled to see Liza beat her previous score by three points. Our founder and head coach, Fatima Leite Kusch was surprised to see what goes on behind the scenes in the life of a competitive national synchronized swimmer. Fatima noticed some similarities between her own Team Blessed Bodies fitness competitors' show day prep, and Liza's swim meet prep.

Did you know that synchronized swimmers plaster their hair with Vaseline to keep their style in place during all of their movement in the water? Did you know that Team Blessed Fitness competitors put Vaseline on their teeth to make smiling effortless on stage? In both of these sports, presentation is equally as important as performance. Fatima saw that Liza has the same types of fabrics and bling on her suits and even wears "stage" makeup like fitness competitors do. It's safe to say that Liza puts in 100% effort and commitment into her sport. She looked beautiful last week! We couldn't have found a more suitable little sister to support with our scholarship funding.

Congratulations Liza! You make us all proud.

In celebration of Women’s Day, we have a special announcement involving a vision that’s come to life, made possible by Fatima Leite Kusch and her Team Blessed Bodies athletes. PRESS RELEASE: A true sisterhood and sense of community is emerging in the health and fitness scene. Oxygen Magazine model, The WBFF Pro Diva Fitness Model, and professional competition coach Fatima Leite Kusch, announced today that she’s launching a revolutionary initiative for teen girls — Blessed Little Sisters. This is a sister project to her acclaimed Team Blessed Bodies athlete program for competitive fitness models and it stems from Fatima’s own struggles with added expenses as a youth athlete. Fatima describes Blessed Little Sisters as a support system for select female teens who strive for excellence in their athletics, but face unmanageable expenses and other barriers in their regimen. She explains, “This isn’t about simply providing scholarship money to an athlete in need. I’ve built a group of caring, talented and generous women called Team Blessed Bodies, and these women are excited to participate on all levels in supporting our new Blessed Little Sisters. Our objective is to source special athletes who are rising stars in their sport but who are missing resources needed to achieve their goals.” Fatima states that the support given to each Blessed Little Sister will be individualized, based on an assessment of their situation and defined needs. It won’t be difficult for Fatima to find suitable Blessed Little Sisters struggling in their sport. The time commitment alone can add stress to families of champion athletes, and coaching costs can be devastating. Perhaps these girls are in need of transportation assistance to get to and from coaching sessions. Perhaps the Team Blessed Bodies fitness models will be seen setting up photo shoots for the girls, leading to media coverage and sponsorship submissions. This is a fresh concept in charitable programs, because it isn’t confined to financial aids. Coach Fatima and her team will be applying creative and unconventional solutions, using their expertise as women who understand the sacrifices and challenges involved with being a champion. Fatima says “Seeing this concept come to life is like seeing a dream come true. This is what it’s all about for us. This is a gift for our team as much as it is for our Blessed Little Sisters.”

5 REASONS WHY FITNESSPRINT WORKS:

1.) Coach Fatima Leite Kusch CARES! She is a pro athlete and Oxygen Magazine fitness model - she knows her stuff whether you have a lifestyle goal, athletic goal, or fitness competition goal.

2.) If you are a bikini athlete, you will not be given a 1995 Male bodybuilder's generic, depletion-based meal plan. No copy and pasting here. Your plan is YOURS and tailored to your individual goal (not to someone of the opposite sex with 80lbs more muscle mass than you.)

3.) Meal plans and training plans are modified regularly, as you approach your goal. Everyone's body responds differently to training and nutrition, so why purchase a cookie cutter plan? Say NO to cookie cutter health plans.

4.) FitnessPrint plans come with a side of FREE GROUPIES. Welcome to our network of likeminded, positive-thinking, REAL people... who happen to be achieving UNREAL goals. Our clients are supportive of each other, and interact daily. They share recipes, hold each other accountable, meet up for socials, team vacations, and team photo shoots to show off their hard work. Words can't describe the warm and fuzzy bond among our clients. It's unheard of.

5.) We've created a sensational concept surrounding 365 days of health. We are proud to know our program will set you up for success year-round. We refuse to set our clients up on a plan that is impossible to stick to all year. We will help you ditch the frozen dinners, yo-yo dieting and fitness fads. We will SHOW YOU THE LIGHT-- the light being 365 days of looking and feeling your best. How does that sound?

Because of the individualized nature of our program, membership is limited. Apply HERE to join us and experience a total lifestyle makeover.

Follow us on Twitter @FitnessPrint and be sure to join in on the #BlessedBodies365 trend!

FitnessPrint client and Team Blessed Bodies athlete, Carla Wayes having a blast on set for a swimsuit catalogue shoot. This took place at Cabo Jam 2012. Carla even participated in a 5km run while on the trip. Sunshine, tropical breezes and red carpet treatment during a week of fun-filled photo shoots... surely Carla won't mind if we all sneak on the plane with her next year. Next month we'll be featuring Carla's recap of her week-long celebrity experience. Ooooh, DO TELL Carla!
