Boot Camps! How Fit Should You Be?
 
You've seen them advertised and say to yourself "I couldn't do that".  Yes, you can, just find the boot camp that is right for you.  Most boot camps adjust the workouts for each fitness level.  Don't let that scare you.  Get out and try one!
 
We run a 5:30am women's only boot camp.  We had a new session start today. It is a lot of fun and the hour goes by really fast.  You will do some running in boot camps.  But you can run at your pace or walk if you need to. It counts as long as you are making the effort.
 
All exercises can be modified to accommodate any physical limitations you may have.  The trainers will give you an alternate exercise if you ask them.  The good ones will automatically give alternate exercises if they are aware of your physical limitations.  You bring your own weights, so you can control how heavy of a weight you're lifting.
 
In the boot camps you play some games, do some team relay races, maybe some partner exercises.  You work on increasing your strength and your cardiovascular endurance.  Each session ends with stretches to help minimize your soreness.  But don't be fooled, you will be sore.
 
You'll get to know the other people in the session and maybe find a workout buddy for future workouts.
 
I know you dread getting up at "O' Dark Thirty" in the morning, but you will feel energized and rearing to go for the rest of the day.  You may be ready for bed by 9pm, but you got your exercise in before you even started your day.
 
Don't be intimidated by boot camps.  Get out there and try one!
 
Looking for 4 Participants for new ALIVE Protocol Study
 
This new ALIVE protocol has been designed to help people:
  • Improve cardiorespiratory condition
  • Improve muscle and function
  • Improve health, vitality and energy
  • Improve lymphatic / immune Health
  • Reduce oxidative damage
 
I am looking for 4 people to go through this protocol at a reduced rate and share their results with others.  The program runs for 4 weeks.  Not only will you see improvements in the areas listed above, most people experience weight loss too. Some comments of people who have gone through the protocol are:
 
"I'm sleeping better and can function better at work now."
 
"I can get into my skinny jeans again."
 
"It's amazing. I don't struggle with acid reflux anymore."
 
"It doesn't take that much time and I have more energy every day."
 
I want to get started with this group by the end of June.  Please email me or call to reserve your spot in the program.
