Hi guys, we thought we’d begin our weekly blogging by answering the most clicked on question on our old site.
“What is Bootcamp?”
We at Bootcamp Geelong do things a little differently to most so let me give you an insider’s guide as to what you can expect by participating in our Bootcamps. The first thing you need to know is that we are different. We are one of Australia’s and definitely Geelong’s largest and most successful outdoor bootcamp for 1 reason. We are the best at what we do.I’m not saying that without any proof either. We have years and years of results to prove it and literally thousands of kilos of fat melted away, many happy marriages and friendships formed and an army of followers.
I too, was one of these followers and still am. I was a participant in these very same bootcamps years ago and as a result my life is completely changed for the better, having lost 30kgs now (of fat) and being fitter and healthier than I’ve ever been. The reason I tell you this is to inform you that I’m not going on second hand information. I know it works because I’m living proof. Every day I am grateful for having found Bootcamp Geelong and as the owner, I now want to share this with all whom we encounter!
Secondly, our bootcamps are not army based. We don’t have drill sergeants. Nobody is going to yell at you or kick you while doing pushups or call you names. We don’t wear khakis and we won’t be waking you up at 3am. Sure we do flip tyres, run a bit, drag ropes, crawl in sand, etc but we don’t make you do things you cant or don’t want to do. Its about you and what you can do. Everyone leaves the 5 weeks being able to do that bit more than when they began. We pride ourselves on our 100% success rate.
Thirdly and one of the most important things about our camps is that we are the only bootcamp where you always exercise with people at your level. We group people after the very first day into a group of similar fitness so you can perform at ‘your’ best for the next 5 weeks. Our camps entail outdoor group fitness in a fun and social environment. The locations are forever changing throughout the Geelong region. They run for 5 weeks and in those weeks you will meet some amazing people and often make lifelong friends. Its another reason we are so fortunate…
The people in and around our camp are the most inspiring and awesome bunch of people I have ever encountered. Our trainers are hand picked from a region of great personal trainers, with literally thousands of trainers to choose from. I’d consider them the best at what they do and our campers all agree. Our bootcampers inspire me every day. Just this very camp and only in 5 weeks, we had a couple that lost 17kg of fat between them and are still smashing every goal we and they have set for themselves to date.
We have had literally thousands of campers (our largest camp being 169) partake in the last 31 camps we have run and many more amazing numbers we could share. The sessions run for 1 hr, 3 times per week in which you spend each session within your group and with your particular trainer. Each Saturday session we run is usually at a beach and we go for breakfast or a coffee as a group afterwards as we really like to encourage the social side of our camps.
At the very beginning of the camp we have an information session where you learn about what to expect in more detail and get a chance to meet the gang, along with some nutritional info and some storytellin. Oh, that reminds me… Before the camp actually begins we load you up with our Bootcamp Geelong nutritional guide and its super easy to follow and guaranteed to get results. We also provide you with a whole booklet of information to get you started. AND… We have a breakup party at the end where we give away prizes, awards and recognition as well have a really rockin’ time!
That’s enough for now. If you’d like more information give us a call or contact us through our contact us tab. The best way though to get a feel for what its really like is to experience it for yourself. You wont be disappointed. Don’t forget registrations are open for the next camp beginning January 31st 2012 and we have already taken quite a few registrations for it so it’s sure to be a biggie.
Until next week, take care of yourself and those you love.
