I was about to turn 40, and was sick of being sick and tired. I have struggled with my weight for most of my adult life, tried every diet and get skinny quick gadget out there. I have spent more money on gym memberships than I care to admit. I still hadn’t found a service or product that worked for me.
My best friend had heard about Metroplex Adventure Boot Camp and mentioned it to me. She knew I had been struggling to find something that would motivate me.
I signed up for the May Adventure Boot Camp. The first 3 days were tough for me. But, slowly, I started feeling stronger, faster and more energetic. Everyone was so encouraging and they inspired me. I was able to keep up with a few modifications for my fitness level.
My Adventure Boot Camp trainer helped all of the campers with our nutrition. I really became dedicated to tracking my food and my water intake. I really started paying attention to food labels and limiting my sugar intake and monitoring my carbs and fats. Eating clean became second nature to me.
Prior to Boot camp, I drank an average of 6 diet sodas a day, on my way to work, another with my breakfast, another mid morning, and one with lunch. You get the idea. Since stopping all of the soda, I found that my headaches have gone away and I started having more long lasting energy.
After my first camp, I lost 7 lbs, and a total of 6 inches. My body fat dropped 3.4%!
After completing my 2nd boot camp, I have lost 11 ½ inches and 20lbs!! In the beginning I could only do 4 push-ups, and 39 crunches. Most recently I was able to do 26 push-ups and 100 crunches. With boot camp I am building lean muscle and ridding my body of fat.
All I can say is that I absolutely love the transformation. Don’t get me wrong, there are still challenging days like “Butt Lift Wednesdays”… but as my boot camp coach says, “You Can Do Anything for Thirty Seconds.”
