Popular fitness franchise opened its doors in Denver February 2011
Farrell’s eXtreme Bodyshaping (FXB), a popular fitness franchise developed in Iowa, has opened its first Denver location (1547 S. Colorado Blvd.). FXB will host “Kickin’ it for a Special Olympics Colorado,” as part of a Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce ribbon cutting ceremony on May 4, 2011 from 5:30 p.m. until 7:30 p.m. Attendees will enjoy refreshments, prizes, and an opportunity to view a FXB class in session. In addition, 10% of the event proceeds will be contributed to Special Olympics Colorado.
The new FXB location boasts 2,500 square feet of mat space dedicated to the participants’ workout. Fitness kickboxing classes are held on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and resistance-training classes are held Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Class times are at 5:15 a.m., 6:15 a.m., and 5:30 p.m. Class times will be added in the future to accommodate participants’ busy schedules.
The first 10-Week Challenge at the FXB location is in session, and franchise owner Dan Dorenkamp has begun enrolling participants for the next session, which will begin May 14, 2011.
“Kickin’ it for Special Olympics Colorado will showcase all that FXB has to offer, including fitness kickboxing, resistance training and nutrition—all the while raising awareness and funds for Special Olympics Colorado,” Dorenkamp said. “The motivation, accountability, challenge, and personal attention that I received during my 10-Week challenge is what set Farrell’s apart from any other fitness program I’ve experienced. I am thrilled to share this experience with the first session participants, and I look forward to helping Denver residents reach their health and weight loss goals.”
Farrell’s is a results-based fitness program for participants of any age, lifestyle, sex, or athletic ability, combating obesity and developing healthy lifestyle habits. In just 45 minutes a day, six days a week, for 10-weeks, Farrell’s participants make real changes in their fitness and overall health. Participants are part of a team and have a coach and instructor to provide guidance, motivation, and accountability. The Farrell’s 10-Week Challenge gives participants the opportunity to compete for a $1,000 grand prize, awarded to those with the most eXtreme body transformations in 10 weeks.
The Farrell’s program includes three essential elements:
• Fitness Kickboxing – a Taekwondo-based workout that combines rhythmic martial arts moves, including dynamic kicking and punching, and bag training to push bodies to their cardiovascular limits.
• Resistance Training – an intense anaerobic bands workout that targets “problem areas” through exercises specifically designed to sculpt, tone, and shape the entire body. These workouts turn bodies into calorie-burning machines.
• Nutrition – a well-balanced eating plan that converts food into fuel for the body. By eating six times per day, participants stay satisfied and in “burn mode” all daylong.
“We are in the business of helping people transform their lives – results are typical,” says Farrell’s Founder, Lance Farrell. “We have helped over 30,000 people transform their lives through this program. Our certified instructors, coaches, and teams help participants improve their overall fitness, balance, coordination, strength, muscle tone, body shape, self-defense, and agility.”
Kickin’ it for Special Olympics Colorado is the inaugural event launching FXB in Denver. To RSVP please email dandorenkamp@extremebodyshaping.com or call (303) 756-2639.
