This program is probably the coolest thing I've ever done for myself. It started out very suddenly, like we found out on a Thursday night that we would start the next evening!! It all starts with a trip to the ranch.
You pull up to this house and it is BEAUTIFUL!! Out in the middle of nowhere Kansas with trees and fields all around (please excuse the dirty windshield, lots of bugs on the way)
We started the evening out by meeting up with everyone and heading to the workout facility on the grounds.
As we stood around the trampoline, we told our stories and introduced ourselves to the group. We met some amazing people that day and I have a feeling we are making some long time friends as we power through this journey together! We met some of the trainers, and some of the past contestants (now ambassadors) of the team. Then we did the most horrifying thing of the week... weighed in, in front of everyone, on video with our weight announced over a megaphone!!! We did some "warm-ups" which were harder than most of the workouts I've done since highschool and headed over to a huge outdoor screen to watch a video where we would be "introduced" to the rest of the support system we would have for the 12 weeks!
After that we headed back to the house to get ready for bed. We all shared one large room set up like a dorm.
The night was rough, it was hot with all of us the small space and everyone snored! We were all dreading the 4:45am wake up call that was coming faster than we wanted! Around 11:15 I finally fell asleep....
