No matter how tired I am or how drained I may be feeling at any given time, my experiences in my bootcamp classes have proven to me that there is always something left in the tank. The real question is how deep do you have to dig to get to it? As far as the Human race is concerned, we […]

I’m in my mid 20’s and have a relatively easy time staying fit. Though I go to bootcamp classes on a regular basis and they are by far the most effective method I have found to keep the weight off and tone on, I have noticed that I have to work a little bit harder than I did just a […]

If you have a sweet tooth like I do, you know how powerful the cravings for sweets can be. You also know the guilt of indulging those cravings. You think you may be the only one, but you’re not. Even personal trainers are susceptible to having a sweet tooth. I know because I am one. I teach bootcamp classes part […]

I was a big guy before starting at my bootcamp gym. I’m still a big guy, just not as big as I was. One of the most difficult things about going to a bootcamp gym, other than my own self confidence issues, was that I had a lot of weight to throw around. Frankly, it hurt to do some of […]

I’ve told you in past blogs that I am a bit hyperactive. I always have to be doing something or I get fidgety. It’s a good thing I like working out at my bootcamp gym because it fulfills that need to be active. In fact, bootcamp classes are one of the only things that can tire me out. The downside […]

Ah, the Fall. Such a wonderful time to have a wedding or to be a part of one. Every woman has dreamed of having that day of days. A day that is absolutely perfect in every way.

Being a stay at home parent is quite possibly one of the most difficult jobs that exists. You can’t “clock off” and go about your day and do whatever you want. I know, because I am a stay at home parent. Despite the all encompassing nature of having children, it is important for you to get your “me time” in […]

I hate to admit it, but some days I really have to question why I am going to bootcamp classes and whether it is really doing any good. I was and still am what would be considered “obese” for my height. It’s the truth. I’ve been going to my bootcamp gym for a few months now and I’m sore and […]

I was going out of my mind a little bit here. I rolled my ankle a week ago and haven’t been nearly as active as I normally would be. See, in an average week I would have been to my bootcamp classes several times by now and it’s started to bug me that I’m just sitting around. I wouldn’t say […]

When I was first starting out in my quest to finally get fit, I struggled as most do. I tried the simple exercises that one can do at home, but progress was slow to the point of being non-existent. That didn’t help motivate me and if anything being at home was detrimental. It’s too easy to get distracted and to […]
