Ultimate Boot Camp is a great motivator for exercise. I take the Cambridge MA class 5:40 to 6:404 days a week. The instructors are great, however this is meant to be a super awesome review for Katie. She’s always enthusiastic, friendly and keeps us entertained with great stories. She never makes the session feel like a competition so that people at all levels of fitness don’t feel disappointed in their performance. I do have a recurring problem. One month of boot camp, 4 days a week is $ 239.00. Why? There’s no bathrooms(we’re outdoors), no paper towels to replace or clean up crew to hire. There’s one instructor, and we provide our own water, towels, etc. I’m giving two stars because the workouts are intense, but it’s WAY too expensive. I’d also like the competitive spirit of some of the exercises to stop. It makes being new to exercise extra stressful. I think boot camp is perfect for people already in decent shape. Just starting out is very intimidating.

Before attending your first military-mimicking training, you’ll need a good night’s sleep, a clean bathtub, Epsom salts, wet wipes, a large, water vessel, and to eat a small meal. The rest and food are for channeling all the energies you can muster to be a relaying, running, grunting, lunging, dipping, tagging, sweating, stinking, water guzzling, elastic band pulling, jello-in-your-entire being, junk-in-your-wiggling-trunk, little human. Don’t make plans to go out when you get home for at least 2 or 3 hours. Chances are, after your arrival, you’ll feel a twinge in your abdomen, letting you know that you need to sit on the toilet. Folks, this is the cheapest, most natural, non-invasive colon cleanse you’ll ever have. Once your bottom is sparkling clean, dissolve 2 cups of Epsom salts in your bathtub and fill it with the hottest water you can stand or else your limbs will be sore for a week and you won’t get your money’s worth. Outdoor classes are $ 299 for a 6 week session that meets 3x/week. Translation, $ 16.61 per class. Classes take place in various locations in and around the city. Wooosaah to the most ass kicking enjoyment you’ve had all season! Three stars because getting this business to answer the phone or return your message is unprofessional and impossible, even for a perpetual optimist. So, you take a leap of faith when you show up for the class with your money and registration form in tote, hoping someone will accept it.
