After losing 148lbs. and keeping it off, I decided to resolve to get fit. January 1, 2010 I joined Next Level Fitness with a girlfriend. That is the day that changed my way of thinking about working out…forever. Shawn had his “boot camp radar” out that day! He planted his seed, and he was persistent. The first question he asked was, “what are your fitness goals?” I think I may have laughed out loud right then! I don’t set goals, but he got me thinking. So, I managed a few weeks of personal sessions with Shawn which taught me a lot, but then he convinced me to join RBC, now I am hooked!!! Monday, Wednesday, and Friday we meet at 6 am. for an hour of hard core, FUN fitness! Working out with the group gives me way more incentive to really push myself thru the workout, you have Shawn, and fellow “boot campers” encouraging you along the way!
Not only do you have the workout sessions, but nutritional guidance. Which is hugely important in our messed up society. Shawn is right there to help you with any questions or concerns you might have about the “diet”. With RBC you get the real deal, the whole package, with RESULTS!!!
Thanks to Shawn, and Rochester Boot Camp I now have some personal goals set, I have lost more weight, lost inches, reduced my body fat, gained muscle tone, confidence, knowledge, and most importantly I am healthier all the way around. I am convinced that I will NEVER weigh 300lbs again!!!!
Take the step…you won’t be sorry!!!!

Prior to joining RBC I had never done any weight/strength training. My mode of exercise was using a recumbent bike at home 3-5x per week (when I could stay motivated to do it regularly). In addition to the lack of motivation to get on the bike (coupled with boredom) I was not getting results I wanted. I’ll admit I was hesitant to try RBC, I thought it would be too challenging, I’d be too uncoordinated to perform the exercises and I’d have to get up earlier in the morning…excuses, excuses! But I knew I had to try something that would provide my the opportunity to obtain the results I wasn’t currently getting…..so I tried a session. Three months later I am so happy I made the decision to try it out. I have gained muscle tone and coordination as well as lost weight and a total of 11 inches and counting! At the end of each workout I feel great (although fatigued)….and energized to start my day! Shawn has a way of inspiring and encouraging us to put forth 110% and is right there to ensure proper form and help us get the most out of each session. This is definitely a program that provides results as well as support all along the way.

There are 2 things I dislike. Mornings and exercise. I now do both religiously. I started the 6 AM boot camp in September and so far I haven’t missed a workout. It is hard at times to get up early but I do love getting my exercise out of the way and I have more energy during the day. I am doing exercises that I thought I wasn’t capable of doing. Shawn pushes me farther than I could ever push myself. The variety of exercises ensures that you never do the same workout twice. Shawn also guides me on nutrition and cardio for the off days. Rochester Boot Camp has helped me lose 14 inches and 13 pounds in the first 3 months. My clothes are getting big and many people have commented on my weight loss. I can’t say I love mornings or exercise, but I will continue with this life change because I know this is what my body needs. I highly recommend Shawn and Rochester Boot Camp…. they have changed my life!

I consider myself an active person that has grown up playing sports and still do. But I now that I am older I just play for fun and to keep in touch with friends. Without the daily practices I found myself to be slowly getting out of shape. About 6 months ago I was about 30lbs over my ideal weight and realized I really needed to start doing something more to get healthy and fit again. When I heard there was a “Boot Camp” program offered at my gym I thought it would be perfect for me. Even though I was slightly intimidated about enrolling in this intense “Boot Camp” program, I went for it anyway and am so happy that I did. Within the first couple months I experienced great results with toning up, but the weight loss was a little slow. I was training hard but really following the meal plan Shawn provided me. Once I really started to follow the meal plan I noticed my body making significant changes. In the last 6 week session I lost 15 pounds, 2 inches in my mid section and went down two pant sizes. For the first time in about 2 years I felt comfortable in a bathing suit on vacation. Even though I have a few pounds left to reach my goal weight, I feel 100% better. In the beginning, the 5am start time was tough, but I adjusted and love getting a positive start on the morning and the increased energy I have throughout the day. Between the trainers and the positive energy amongst the other clients in the program I am really pushed to go above what I could do on my own. It is a great atmosphere and everyone really helps one another out with their work outs as well as ideas for meals.
