A few weeks ago, I needed to make a hearty meal for a six hungry folks in less than 45 minutes. When I opened the refrigerator, I saw a bunch of odds and ends of other meals and a few leftovers from other dishes. I didn’t have enough leftovers of anything to reheat and eat or serve, so I need to put things together to create something new.

After plundering though my kitchen and tracking down some poblano peppers, eggs, and ground pork left over from a meatloaf recipe — I was getting closer to dinner. I discovered corn muffins left over in the bread drawer and finally turned to my pantry for a final ingredient or two. I looked right at canned pumpkin — aha! Pumpkin is used in Mexican cuisine — and suddenly a Tex-Mex leftover casserole, with a spiced ground pork and pumpkin layer and a crispy cornbread topping, was born out of what I had on hand.

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
