That's me, working out with a weighted bar during the Fittest Loser boot camp at Push Fitness.

Trainer Tony Rinehart offers some suggestions during a Fittest Loser boot camp on a recent Saturday morning at Push Fitness in Schaumburg. I have no idea what he was telling me, because my brain was only thinking "I survived eight flights of stairs! I can do anything!"

About this Article

There was a time not very long ago when I thought going for a stroll every few days constituted proper exercise. HA! I was so deluded. I now work out seven days a week. I work out three days with my trainer, Josh, at Push Fitness. I hit the treadmill — either at home or at the Mount Prospect Park District — three days per week. And on the seventh day, there's Push Fitness boot camp.
