| Fitness Boot Camp
My sister is doing this form of torture called Boot Camp. It's six weeks of intensive physical and mental exercise for two hours a day. Last week they did a timed 12-mile bicycle race hard and when they finished, exhausted, the instructor told them to grab a bottle of water and do a three-mile run. She is loving every minute of this insanity. She says she feels better than ever and she's rock hard everywhere. I told her she'd better not get any ideas about lording it over the rest of us sisters when we get together.
Has anyone else tried this? |

Good for her! If that's what it takes to drop a little weight I think it's great!

Sounds fun to me!!! 
Can't wait for wresting practice. No matter how hard I push myself with cardio I don't get anywhere CLOSE to a good wrestling practice.

That reminds me of the show "Last 10 lbs Bootcamp", which I think is what I need 
They get a personal trainer and dietician for 4 weeks, in which they usually loose about 10 lbs, and about 4 inches off their bodies.

I think though the first 4 weeks of any weight loss program are when you'd lose the most. If you've already been losing weight and then started this program I wouldn't expect a huge dropoff.

They would break me in two. I wouldn't last more than 2 hours before I'd throw in the towel. I take orders about as good as Gomer Pyle.

Whenever I would watch the show, I always thought it would be a great thing to do. But I think I might die if I tried it
