Boot Camp or Bust?



Today I did something that I haven't done in quite awhile - Working out EARLY YES! Oh to see the sun coming up on the water and fresh breezes off the water while I think of my dream home - HOLD UP! I must get myself back on the topic at hand.



There were young, middle aged, retired individuals all around and we all were there with one simple thing on our minds and that was GETTING HEALTHY. One thing that I noticed was how each one of us was focused on working out individually and not really needing anyone to sort of push us and that I found to be fantastic. 

I began to think about how some people prefer the independence doing it themselves verses the corporate workout of boot camps. The boot camp craze has been in full effect lately with classes from the east and west coast and around the world as hundred come together for the cause of getting "FINE" as my mom would say.




Imagine you and your friends getting off work and heading over to an intense workout session at your local park lead by a sort of mental taskmaster who causes you to answer to yourself when you fall off the healthy wagon. The results are super amazing and boy does it get your blood pumping with workouts that include MAD Cardio and much more. 

I myself like going the independent route and doing my own thing which includes the: Damn these leg lifts hurt and the ever present "I MUST get rid of these pesky man boobs" workout routines. Some of the boot camp experiences can sometimes be a breeding ground for women and often men to be mentally and emotionally taken advantage off by someone whom they trust with their lifestyle choices.



I believe that being apart of a good boot camp is an amazing fete and should be encouraged along with a healthy eating regimen - In other words, "You gotta eat right as well" 

But I digress and continue on with the importance of a good workout which includes dedication and remaining focused on what is important - HEALTHY LIFESTYLE!! 

I must go now, I have to get ready for my morning workout along with the elderly ladies who workout better than me. 



Wish Me Luck,
