"About 2 years ago, after my 48th birthday, I came to the conclusion that I needed a change -At that point I was 260+ pounds and hadn't worked out in a long while - I had started some diets, and even some workouts before on my own but the success was short lived. The weight would come off and as soon as the diet ended, the weight came back, and then some more! To put it plainly - I was a man with NO PLAN. But as fate would have it, I met Tina, a Boot Camp Challenge Drill Sergeant who took some time and explained the program. The part that intrigued me was the interaction of the physical workout - at my level, and the knowledge that someone was going to review my food choices and assist me with making some sound nutritional choices. Well, results speak louder than words. Within a year I had lost 45 pounds and 10% body fat. My strength and endurance returned. In short, this program works - 6 weeks of challenging workouts coupled with Drill Sgt. Tina's consistent critique of my food journals. Lastly there is one other aspect of the program that needs to be highlighted - The group - The collective group of people who show up every day at 5:15AM - work hard, sweat and encourage each other to achieve success - Knowing there will be people who are there WILL get you out of bed in the morning - Results to date: Down 65 pounds, Down 12% body fat, multiple inches in waist, hips, thighs, etc. Thanks for the program - I just turned 50 and I'm in the best shape of my life since High School!

"When I started Boot Camp Challenge® with Melissa Grattan, I could do exactly zero push-ups, hardly any sit-ups, and it took me almost 14 minutes to run (mostly walk) a timed mile. Since then I have lost 60 pounds, can do at least 25 real push-ups in two minutes, ran every step of a half-marathon and a demanding 15K this past fall, and am working on my goal of running a 5K in less than 30 minutes. Not only is this due to the constant variety of challenging cross-training work-outs offered in Boot Camp Challenge ®, but the professionalism, encouragement and camaraderie given by Drill Sergeant Melissa and my fellow boot-campers. I also just found out my cholesterol went from 220-157.  Boot Camp Challenge ® is a part of my life now—and to me that means achievement and success!"

"My gracious appreciation to Drill Sergeant Becky for encouraging all of us on an individual basis to make sure each of us got the most from each work out. She always found time to greet each of us and she was right there if I needed a modification.  Thank you!"

"Boot Camp Challenge ® has changed my habits, and my life. For years I have been "active" and "ate well" (ate low calories & no carbs = no energy)…and the program is teaching me how wrong I really was. I was not gaining any weight, but I was not healthy! Now I have energy and am excited to get up in the morning, not to mention enjoying a well rounded diet! I am so motivated by the group setting! I love seeing the range of age and ability all working equally in the class along side of me. When things feel hard, I see who else is getting it done and push through it! Thanks for introducing me to my new life!"
