$20 Bootcamp = FAIL



A few weeks ago, a friend decided for convinced me to purchase a steal of a deal on http://www.dealfind.com/. The deal: $20 for 20 classes of bootcamp. Wow, ok, great! Last April, I did a bootcamp through http://www.bootycampfitness.com/ and while it was awesome (and worked!), it was also expensive ... around $160 for 8 classes. So, it made sense ... the deal was cheap, I get to work out with a friend, it gets me outside and doing exercise (which is much needed since I've done nothing since the wedding!).

The camp runs from May 2 - 27 and is Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. It's now May 11 and I have made it to two out of five classes. And it was the first two. FAIL.

However, I have to say, if I am going to drive almost half an hour to work out for one hour, you better be a heck of an instructor. She's not. She lacks enthusiasm and motivation, and doesn't even do the exercises with us. She also makes us do ground exercises, on a garbage bag, in a field that is muddy and wet when there are numerous other, DRY places in the park.

I did have a prior obligation for the first class I missed, and the last two I was under the weather, yet I still managed to go for a run (yes, a run, me....who would've ever thought?!)around town with the hubster. So, I am least trying to fit my exercise in.  It's a start right?!

Apparently a $20 bootcamp isn't quite motivating enough.
