About Colorado Springs Adventure Boot Camp for Women

 

 
 

What is the Colorado Springs Adventure Boot Camp for Women?

    A four-week (length may vary during the holiday season), women only, outdoor fitness program led by your Certified Adventure Fitness Trainer, Kim McArthur. Each day, your camp will be 1 hour in length, starting at 5:30 am. You will be motivated and inspired. 110 % maximum effort is required from you throughout the entire session. You will have fun, and you will get a challenged & fantastic workout!

Are there advantages to exercising outside?

    Definitely. Being outdoors, especially, if you have a hectic lifestyle and/or spend most of your day enclosed in an office or car, offers a natural source of rejuvenation. Exercising in the open air invigorates your body and calms your mind. You will find it to be a refreshing alternative to the sweaty crowds and high noise levels commonly found at health clubs and community gyms.

Is boot camp for me?

  • Do you need to be held accountable?
  • Do you need motivation?
  • Do you need to shake up or jump start your fitness program?

    If you answered "YES" to any of these questions, then boot camp is for you!

What if I'm not very physically fit?

    Regardless of your age or ability, we encourage you to participate. You will not be left behind or asked to complete more than you are capable of doing, safely. You will compete only against yourself, but will work with others for the very best results! Each day, as you become stronger, your workout will increase in intensity--under the watchful eye of a certified fitness professional. By the end of camp, you will be amazed at your accomplishments!

What types of exercises are included in the program?

    Core conditioning, cardio training (including short distance running, jumping rope, etc), calisthenics, circuit training, Pilates, sport yoga, resistance training, obstacle courses, sports drills, games, and more…all designed to help you reach your health and fitness goals!

Where are the classes held?

    Your boot camp instruction will take place in the Colorado Springs area.

How often will we meet?

    You and your fellow campers will meet every Monday through Friday for one (1) hour. All participants will be expected to arrive on time. Camp starts promptly at 5:30 AM!

When does the next Colorado Springs Adventure Boot Camp start?

What do I need to bring?

    You need to bring an exercise mat, a water bottle (to keep you hydrated), hand weights (5-8 lbs.), and a towel. Optional items in the winter: gloves and a hat. All items can be purchased at Target, Wal-Mart, Sport Authority or any sporting goods store.

    Note: On chilly mornings, you will want to dress in layers, as you will get warm very fast!

    It is also essential that you have a good pair of, properly fitted, running shoes. (Cross-trainers will not provide you with sufficient support.)

    What will I get out of participating?

    A LOT! You will notice a dramatic improvement in your physical well-being and self-confidence. Camp programs include exercises designed to:

  • Tone your butt, hips, thighs, and arms,

  • Flatten your stomach,

  • Increase strength and stamina,

  • Reduce body fat, and build new friendship

    You will look and feel better. You'll push your intensity levels, and you will reach a higher level of fitness than you, most likely, would not achieve on your own. In addition, you will be a part of a supportive community of women, with whom you’ll share the same goals. Stronger Mind, Leaner and Healthier Body.

    Additionally, you will receive a FREE Colorado Springs Adventure Boot Camp T-shirt
     
    What is the cost (or the investment in myself)?

    Each 4-week, five (5) days per week, boot camp has a registration fee of only $299. That’s 20 hours of instruction for just $14.95 per hour! Or $199 for 3 days per week.  Personal trainers typically charge between $35 and $120 per hour for their services. This is a great opportunity to receive quality fitness instruction from a certified Personal fitness trainer… for just a fraction of the cost!

    We are now accepting pre-registration for the next camp. You will have your pre-camp evaluation with your coach prior to the start of camp. You will be notified by phone or email for a date and time.

Do I have to go five days a week?

    Although, the 5-days/week program will give you the best results, you may also choose a 3-days/week option at a cost of only $199. Generally, attendance in the Monday, Wednesday and Friday sessions works best for the 3-days/week option.

What if I can't make it to the 5:30 a.m. camp? Will there be other camp times?

    Currently, the 5:30 am time slot is the only camp option available at this time. Yes, additional camp times and locations will be offered, in the near future, and will be announced, as they are added. Click here to suggest a different time and location for our next camp.

What is the sign-up process?

    Complete the Boot Camp Registration form on this site and submit it electronically. Once we have received your registration and boot camp payment (you may pay online with a credit card or mail a check), we will send you a confirmation email with instructions for setting up your pre-camp evaluation.

    If you've already registered and received email confirmation, you can schedule your pre-evaluation now.

Will I be sore sometimes?

    Many boot campers feel some soreness for the first 2-3 days. After that, it is slight to moderate. It's all part of the process of improving your physical condition!

What kind of people go to camp?

    People just like you! Some of our boot campers just need to jump start their fitness and wellness program. Some are tired of the same out routine and are looking for a new challenge and refreshing way to stay fit. Most of our campers have some history of exercise, but it's not required. We make the program just right for your ability level. Remember, ALL FITNESS LEVELS ARE ACCEPTED and ENCOURAGED!

How many people are in each camp?

    This number usually varies from 15-30.

What is a typical day like at boot camp?

    We don't have typical days -- if you want the same routine day after day, then you would probably want to join a fitness center. You can expect a mixture of cardio exercises, some running (less than a mile), light weight-training, mat work, jumping rope, and sports-related games. Each day is designed to be fun, challenging and different, but never boring!

How soon will I see results?

    Performance improvement can take place in as little as 3 days. Visual improvement can take from 2 to 4 weeks depending on your effort level. It's not uncommon to see as much as 3-8 pounds of weight loss after the first week. Remember, everyone is different! Check out our Testimonials page!

    Note: Every individual is different and will experience different results when participating in Colorado Springs Adventure Boot Camp. If you want to lose weight and are under 18, pregnant, nursing, following a diet recommended by a doctor, have health problems or want to lose more than 30 pounds, see a doctor before starting Colorado Springs Adventure Boot Camp.

What will I do after boot camp is over?

    You will get re-measured and tested to show your progress and success in the program. Many (up to 80%) of the campers return for a second and even third camp.

    Post-evaluations take less than 15 minutes to complete.

What if I sign up for the 3-day plan and then want to do all 20 days of the camp?

    This actually happens almost every time a person starts with 3 days per week. They have so much fun, they ask to do all the days. You will simply be prorated from the point you decide to join us for all the days.

Is there a refund policy?

    We can only give you a credit towards another boot camp if you are unable to continue with the one you began (or if you miss 5 or more consecutive days) due to circumstances beyond your control (injury or major illness). This credit is nontransferable. There is no cash refund.
