Edge Body Boot Camp - Owensboro — Local services in Owensboro

Hi my name is Sherry Jenkins a 69 year old wife, mother and grandmother and a current member of EDGE BODY BOOTCAMP in Owensboro, KY. I'm writing this post with a little bit of reluctance because I really don't like attention drawn to myself. That being said Chris Zachary the owner, and our fierce trainer encouraged me. Please excuse my grammar and long windedness. These pictures were hard to post because I'm very self critical. But if my journey can help even one person to have faith and belief in theirselves it's worth it. I starting gaining weight around age 30 after my thyroid went bonkers, then at age 42 a hysterectomy was done for health reasons, 2006 was put on medicine for type 2 diabetes which was devastating. Because I had always played sports, exercised even when heavy but never really lost weight. Was trying very hard to lose but the covid came along a lot of things were shut down but kept walking and things outside to try again to get weight off and be healthier. Not much results. So in January of 2024 I joined EDGE BODY BOOTCAMP to lose weight, get healthy enough to control my type 2 diabetes and come off my meds..Well guess what after a lot of support from the trainers and the EBBC family that i get the privilege to workout with, all the classes available, podcasts of links for recipes, encouragement, run clubs, workouts posted we can do at home, impossible mile challenge, squat challenges I could go on and on...you get all these things and more for your membership. Anyway from January 2024 I'm officially down 49 lbs off my insulin, my AIC is 5, lower doses on my other meds also, hopefully off other meds at next Dr visit. So don't ever say you're too old, too fat, not strong or can't lose because of bad genes, bad thyroid, etc. Eat whole food, drink lots of water, exercise, get involed with a encouraging group of the people like EBBC and you can do it. Don't get me wrong I work hard and constantly have to watch putting junk in my body but I've realized in my 69th year I'm worth it!! I do it for me and for my family!! I CAN DO ALL THINGS THRU CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME!! Thank you Chris Zachary and everyone involved with EDGE BODY...

I joined EBBC a little over 2 years ago, and it's still one of the best decisions I've ever made for my health. I continue to attend 3-4 classes a week. I have witnessed enough growth that we needed to move into a much larger facility!

The trainers are very knowledgeable and caring. They challenge me and help to ensure that I reach my goals. When I joined, one of my goals was to be strong enough to do "real" push-ups. Now, two years later, I can do "real" push-ups, and I hope that someday I can do "explosive" push-ups or maybe even a one-arm push-up! Hey, the sky's the limit!

I don't have an impressive "before and after" picture transformation, but I have gained so much by being a member of EBBC. I joined to lose some baby weight after 3 children had taken their toll on my body. I have lost quite a bit of weight, but most of my progress and success isn't determined by the numbers on the scale. I have dropped several clothing sizes. I have watched the notches keep tightening on my favorite belt until it is too big to fit anymore. But one of the most important benefits for me has been that my back hardly ever hurts anymore. I've suffered chronic back pain on and off since college. However, since joining EBBC, my back pain is rare to non existent!

I can't say enough good things about the EBBC family. I say "family" because it really feels that way. Everyone encourages each other and celebrates successes together. EBBC gives a lot back to the community, including supporting local charities and nutrition education. If you're serious about your health and well-being and want to experience one of the most intense and successful fitness programs available, I highly recommend trying EBBC. You won't be...

If you've been thinking about trying Edge Body Boot Camp, I say just GO FOR IT!! You won't regret it! I've been going now for about a year and a half and I'm the strongest I ever have been in my life! I love how EBBC give back to the community with the different charity challenges. The trainers are the BEST!! They switch up what you do every day so you never know what to expect when you walk thru the door. I've never been disappointed with a workout. Chris keeps you motivated, knows your limits and then encourages you to go a little further. Let me not forget to tell you about the amazing campers that go there. I've gained lots of new friends and family by going to EBBC. The trainers and campers are so supportive, inspiring, and motivating that it keeps me coming back for more. Not to mention we have a fun while working out!! Because hey who doesn't love to have a good time while getting EdgeBlasted!! ...
