Hello Campers…this article was sent out to you last year and I thought it was really inspiring that we need to post it on our new blog. Dana also writes a good paragraph at the end. As always, we truly thank you for choosing Epic Boot Camp and we are proud that we are able to help you live a healthy life and give you that “me” time. Keep up the great work!
When people ask me what I “do” and I tell them that I am a personal
trainer, they automatically start spewing excuses as to why they are
out of shape and unhappy with their bodies. I don’t have to ask a
thing. I am suddenly a shrink. Personal facts surface quickly and
without reserve. Mind you, all I have said is that I am a personal
trainer. Suddenly I’m their life long best friend. “I don’t have time…
I have kids… I go to school… my job wears me out… I just have no
energy… I used to workout…” I’ve heard every excuse in the book.

The thing about working out on a Wednesday and then not working out again till Tuesday is that it stinks. Now you know I tried really hard to fit in long walks with the kids, and doing what I could to stay active, but no workout compares to the boot camp workout. Throw in a bachelorette party and staying out to 3 am on Saturday and you get the picture. So getting back into the swing of things on Tuesday was rough!
Jacob started the week out by basically telling us week 3 means no mercy, shorter breaks, longer reps, and we better keep up. So you can pretty much imagine that Tuesdays workout just about killed me. By Wednesday, I honestly thought I wouldn’t make it through- it was so cold, so dark, I could barely breathe. Thursday was more of the same. Those damn burpees!! WHY do you do this to yourself Joy (I know this is what you are thinking!) The thing is- no matter how hard it is, or how tired, or sore, or cold you are, you are doing for YOU.

For the 2nd week in a row, I actually worked out on a Monday morning. Which has like never happened, ever. Thanks again Chesco Moms 
My husband had a scheduled business trip to New Orleans from Wednesday to Saturday this week, so in order to fulfill my 3 days a week at boot camp, I had to go THREE DAYS IN A ROW. Yes, there are many of you out there that exercise 7 days a week, I am not one of you. But this week I gave it my best shot!

Two weeks ago I received an email from my COO Brian in Pittsburgh. He had shared with me a story with one of our campers and how she had lost a significant amount of weight. One of our campers had joined Epic in Pittsburgh and made the commitment that she wanted to make a lifestyle change. For a year of coming to boot camp with Brian, she lost a total of 65lbs and followed her suggested diet plan that was designed by her trainer. 65lbs! That is amazing! I know it takes a lot of effort and dedication to lose that much weight, but it is possible and she proved it to herself over that year. What a great story.
