Tomorrow is the final day of the 4 week boot camp we signed up for as part of our ongoing research in weight loss and healthy living. Three days a week we have been getting up and driving to Renton at 5:15am for a 1 hour workout with a trainer. There are a number of different boot camp workouts offered in the area, we chose Victory Get Fit Club because they offer a women only camp and because it is taught by a fantastic trainer named Marissa Mancke.
Week one was brutal. A combination of the early hour and the intensity of the workout left us both completely nauseated and sore! By week two the nausea had improved and we were getting used to waking up at 4:45am. By the end of the second week I felt a big positive shift in my energy level and mood. Now, four weeks into our journey I feel much more energized and fit and have come close to accomplishing my fitness goals (we have final measurements tomorrow).
I am so happy that we have done the program and would highly recommend it to anyone needing to jump start their exercise program and do something to really challenge yourself.
