PRESS RELEASE


NRG LIFESTYLE FITNESS TRAINING INTRODUCES STAND UP PADDLE FITNESS BOOT CAMPS TO WESTERN STATES.


Haleiwa, HI (June 29, 2009)--Personal Trainer, Avid Stand Up Paddler & Owner Of NRG Lifestyle Fitness Training, Nikki Gregg Is Bringing Her Exclusive Women’s Stand Up Paddle Boot Camp To A Number Of Cities In a Western State Tour Of Utah, California & Colorado.


Nikki Gregg has 10 years of experience as a fitness professional and has now pioneered a new approach to health & fitness by combining her already successful personal training methods with the worlds fastest growing water sport, stand up paddle surfing. Nikki began to implement stand up paddling into her workout programs in Hawaii and honed her skills on the famed beaches of Oahu’s North Shore. Filled with aloha spirit and a lifetime dedicated to health and fitness, Nikki will now bring her unique brand of health, fitness and stand up paddle training to the mainland, USA. Scheduled venues include Salt Lake City, UT/ Santa Barbra, CA/ Dana Point, CA and Buena Vista, Colorado


Nikki’s exclusive boot camp is personalized; each camp will only cater to six participants at a time. Each city will allow participants to choose from either a three day boot camp during the week or a two day camp for the weekend warriors. “I want everyone to come away from the experience completely stoked, not only feeling great from the workouts, but equipped with the strength and knowledge to charge harder on their SUP boards.”, says Nikki, who further explains, “I like to change up the workouts every time. My boot camps are never the same twice. Expect anything, just don’t expect boring.”

Participants can anticipate much more during the camp in addition to the workouts. Each paddler’s technique will have an in-depth evaluation, a healthy gourmet lunch served each day after the workout, special clinics with guest athletes, and lots of gear and lots of freebies will be lavished upon each person joining the program.


Nikki Gregg has spent much of her life in gyms either personal training, managing, teaching group strength classes, and weight loss counseling. These days, though, one will rarely find her spending much time at any gym as she prefers to transform and shape up her client’s bodies outdoors on the beach and by way of stand up paddling. “Stand up paddling has done far more at improving my physique than any gym work I’ve done. Plus, it happens to be fun.” She explains, “Naturally I began incorporating SUP into my workout programs with success.”


Nikki’s strongly believes in her motto, “There’s nothing worse than a boring workout” . As she explains, “It’s really that simple. Committing to a healthy lifestyle with proper eating habits and exercise doesn’t need to be complicated and dreadful. Nobody should feel miserable while they are getting into shape and losing weight.” She continues, “Don’t get me wrong, though, results are hard earned in my Stand Up Paddle Fitness boot camps, I make people work hard to reach their goals.”

Stand Up Paddling in the River


I just got back from a couple of weeks on the mainland where I stand up paddled in the high flowing rivers of Colorado with my boyfriend, Dan. It's the time of year when the runoff is raging and whitewater enthusiasts abound! I think we took most of the kayakers and rafters by surprise....people standing up and paddling down whitewater on oversized surfboards?! We got a lot of weird looks, but everyone was stoked. We even competed in the very first ever SUP Whitewater Championships in Glenwood Springs, CO. Following are some photos from the river and yes, it was COLD!!! Enjoy! (All photos by Dan Gavere)
