Ep 47. From First Knock to Dream Team: Jenny Greenfield’s Journey


Listen Later

Kelly Young hosts Jenny Greenfield—the first ever KBC bootcamp participant and now a pivotal team member, celebrating community, consistency, and resilience in fitness through life’s evolving stages.


Key Discussion Points:

-Both Kelly and Jenny’s beginnings in group fitness, with a shared origin at Gold’s Gym and as moms of baby girls. The value of friendship and routine in sustaining fitness commitments.


-Jenny’s candid reflections on aging, turning 50, and feeling more confident and energetic than she did at 40. Overcoming health challenges and balancing family, career, and teaching fitness.


-The importance of consistency over perfection, especially for non-“fitness freaks,” with Jenny crediting her instructor role for creating accountability and routine.


-Insights into working full-time and teaching fitness—how group classes provide motivation amid tiredness, and how community sustains engagement.


-Jenny’s approach to planning classes, infusing creative tweaks into core movements, drawing on an athletic/dance background, and personalizing workouts based on regulars’ preferences.


/The power of small groups and fitness challenges (like Camp U and “Level Up”) for accountability and forming deeper friend connections—emphasizing community support through adversity, celebrations, and everyday struggles.


Jenny’s advice - Just show up, find what works, and let community carry you through hard and good times.
