What If You Could……

And YOU can!

You definitely won’t find me saying gimmicky stuff and b.s. that you can drop a 100 lbs in 8 weeks and that changing your body is real easy and you can do it by eating whatever you want and training 10 minutes a couple of times a week. And if someone does, you need to question their integrity and have them prove it to you……if they prove it to you then give me their number so I can learn from them.

What I believe in is changing your lifestyle so that when you make a body transformation you can maintain and/or continue to improve on the results that you achieved. What good is it to bust your butt training and taking on a crazy diet for 8-12 weeks (or more/less) only to fall of and gain it all bak in even less time? Positive changes are meant to last and when you start on a path that should be kept in mind.

This is not going to be a “OMG, I love boot camps” or “they suck!” answer, but more of my own explanation on when you should take them seriously or not. So read on….

Considering this blog is pretty oriented towards performance training, muscle building, athletes and feeling/looking better……

…why the hell would I talk about boot camps?

Well, let’s see:

1. If you have a body you’re an athlete. And who says we can’t implement athletic exercises in boot camps?

2. Most people will improve performance, build muscle and lose fat in a boot camp setting

3. If you are compliant with a good boot camp system then you’re going to look better naked

4. The improved mobility, flexibility and strength will help you feel better and get rid of pain

5. Hocevar Perfomance runs the Renton Results Boot Camp so I’m talking about it mofo’s (you must be thinking I’m biased right away)!

Just like anything else, the question whether boot camps are a good choice comes down to the quality of the training system, nutrition and the people running it. My list from 1-4 above only holds true when all things are in place. (more…)
