At an early age, we were all brainwashed to believe that broccoli is Public Enemy Number 1, and thus became a culture facing a broccoli identity crisis at large.

Think about it: When asked in school to name a food that they dislike, kids often resort to broccoli because they think that’s what they’re supposed to say. (I know I did, even though I secretly loved it.) The cartoons that we watched on Saturday mornings all had a scene in which our favorite characters idly pushed a floret of broccoli around the plate, with a giant scowl on their face. And let’s face it — the way that most of us ate broccoli as kids didn’t do it much justice. (Stinky and steamed, am I right?)

But hear us out: Broccoli only has a bad reputation because we were raised to think it does. WE WILL STAND FOR IT NO MORE. This year, we’re placing big bets on broccoli. Why? Let me count the ways.

Warrior Fit Testimonials

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.
