PUMPS SPRING NEWSLETTER
Hi Everyone. We have been at this now for three months and decided it wold be a good time to launch a quarterly newsletter for Pumps. We want put out a quarterly newsletter for a couple or reasons:
- Keep you informed about what is going on at Pumps and local events surrounding fitness.
- Have a hub for information about exercise, nutrition, and fitness.
- To help keep our little family of friends, and work out buddies connected.
- Help you get to know our staff.
GET TO KNOW: JULES BOCHENEK
I grew up in the small town of Ortonville Michigan. I still go back to the local grocery store and am greeted by someone I know. Not quite Mayberry but close. I graduated from Brandon High School in the top 10% of my class in 2001. I have always loved to learn and read. I went on to college studying Art History and Religion with a minor in History at Oakland University. I am a true nerd and will talk off your ear if you get me started on Medieval or Renaissance history.
While at Oakland, I met my future husband Aaron and we married in 2005. He joined the Navy shortly after. It was during our whirlwind adventures with the Navy that we welcomed three wonderful (and sometimes crazy) kids. Regan is six and she loves to exercise! Tamsyn is five and loves to cook. Elliot our youngest is almost three and is one of the funniest kids I know! We also have two fur babies Ziggy the pug and Harper the cat.
It was after the birth of our youngest that my wake up call arrived on the scale. I was three hundred and six pounds! The biggest I had ever been. I fell into a loathsome state with myself and realized things had to change. Not just for my physical but also my mental health. With the help of a wonderful trainer Alissa Cuevas in Long Beach Mississippi I began my life change. It was a slow start and I have a ton of great stories about my early days of exercise. Thankfully now I can laugh at! As time went on I found that exercise was more than a routine for me it had become a habit. I was in love and couldn’t believe it.
After losing eighty pounds and eight dress sizes I am still a work in progress. I feel I can always improve and can always learn something new (that’s the nerdJ). I am a perpetual student and weave that into keeping my classes fresh and fun! I enjoy fusing great music and energy into fun classes anyone can enjoy. If you are at the start of your journey or are a seasoned athlete you will still have a great time.
Each person I meet I like to think of as a friend, and I treat each class as a time of release from the outside stresses of the world. I can’t wait to meet you and enjoy some laughs and a great workout together."

Jules is currently studying to become an American Council on Exercise (ACE) Certified Personal Trainer. Good luck Jules!
Just as Mother Nature sends warmer temperatures and blooming flowers as a way to announce Spring has arrived, we have a couple of announcements of our own.
Our very own Michele Loudermilk has just completed her Zumba certification and is getting ready to compete in a Brazilian Ju Jitsu Tournament on May 3rd. Congrats Michele and go get 'em. Bring home some gold! Check out the energy that Michele will bring to her Zumba class for the Month of May and her Kickboxing class will get you up and moving!
We are happy to announce for the month of May we will have a guest Yoga instructor. Stephanie Danyi has recently returned from a month long program in Costa Rica where she studied and was certified as a Yoga instructor.
Pumps Happenings:
- We have been working with a local ad firm and we are excited to announce our new logo! Look for T-Shirts and wearables coming soon. Thanks AC, Inc.!
- Over the next couple of months, we are looking forward to painting the facility and adding a splash of color here and there.
Nutrition, Fitness, and You
30 Days to a NEW YOU
The summer is on the horizon, and with it shorts, tank tops and flip flops.
What if you spent the next 30 days dropping excess pounds, and getting into better shape? Then you could ride out the summer months fitter than ever and more likely to eat healthier, indulge less and stick with your workout schedule.
Sounds good, right?
We've got just the plan to get you there. Follow these 5 steps to transform your body over the next 30 days...
1) Go Bread Free: Going bread-free for 30 days is such a simple way to accelerate fat loss. Just think of all the extra carbs and calories that you'll be saving yourself from. And it's not so bad, once you get used to it. Wrap sandwiches and burgers in lettuce or on top of a pile of greens.
2) Workout 5x's Each Week: Take the next 30 days to really focus your efforts in the gym. Train as if you were preparing yourself for an athletic event, with the mindset that each and every workout is important in seeing you through your goal. Make a log of each time that you exercise, noting the duration, intensity and activity.
3) Go Sugar Free: Sugar is the biggest thing holding you back when it comes to dropping fat and getting lean. And not just refined sugar. I'm talking about all sugars. Take the next 30 days to cut out all sweeteners and limit your intake of sweet fruits. This will be hard at first, especially if you have a sweet tooth, but the rapid change in you body is fantastic incentive to keep going.
4) Focus on Protein and Veggies: Enough about all the things you can't eat, let's talk about what you can eat. Your meals should be a variety of protein and veggies. For protein stick with organic, hormone-free meat that has been roasted, baked or grilled. For veggies, avoid starchy veggies like potatoes, and instead stick with an assortment of colorful, fiber-filled veggies.
5) Commit to be Fit: The quickest way to get your body into tip-top shape is to join one of our fitness programs. Whether its group fitness or personal training we're here to help you get into the best shape of your life. Make the commitment now, and together we can make a stronger, more fit you.
So there you have it, 5 simple steps to transforming your body before the summer even begins.
Remember, the next 30 days are going to pass whether you jump on board with a fitness plan or not. So you're going to spend the next 30 days simply doing nothing OR you could buckle down and finally make your amazing transformation.
The choice is yours.
We are here to see you through it all. Call or email now and we will get started.
