6 Week Bootcamp Success Story

I could not be more proud of our 6 Week Bootcamp athlete, Dave! I knew he had shown dedication to our program by turning in his food log weekly and attending class, however, I was really impressed with his results. Dave lost 11.6 lbs and 18.75 inches in 6 weeks! He’s now moving into my athletic training class and I can’t wait to watch him progress even further. Go Dave!!

“I have always stayed pretty active with cycling and the gym but I started to notice over the last few years that I was adding a few pounds. Next thing I knew I was about 15 lbs heavier than my normal weight. Even with adding more cycling I couldn’t drop the extra pounds. I knew I needed to try something different. I had considered a boot camp in the past, so I thought now would be a great time to actually do it. I googled ‘Austin Boot Camps’ and saw that Relentless had one starting the next week, so I signed up. 

My expectations were that I’d get a good workout 3 days a week and boy was I right. I haven’t pushed myself in a workout like this in years. The benchmark workouts were a great way to see improvement over the 6 weeks and I really enjoyed the AMRAP workouts when there are three movements back to back to back. I love the group dynamic and the coaches Jeremy and Lauren are great. They have a great combination of motivation, inspiration and even a little humor, which really helps at 6AM.

What I didn’t know was there would be a nutrition side to the boot camp as well. I knew I’d be able to stick with the classes but I was a little worried it would be difficult to stick with the nutrition. But after a week, I started seeing a drop in the scale and that was all the motivation I needed.

The morning workouts are great and while I initially thought I would be tired from getting up for a 6AM workout it turned out quite the opposite. I have more energy than before and while I didn’t necessarily feel bad before I started boot camp, I feel even better now.

My initial goals were to lose a pound a week and I was pleasantly surprised to lose over 10 lbs. I’ve also seen improvements in both my cycling and running. I’m looking forward to continuing with the Athletic Training classes where I’m sure I’ll see my progress continue.

I’d recommend a Relentless Boot Camp to anyone who is stuck in a fitness rut and needs that extra something to push them forward in their overall healthiness.”
