Fitness for Living Boot Camp

I just finished my first session of Fitness for Living Bootcamp and can’t wait to sign up for the next session.
Not having really exercised with much direction, I was definitely intimidated attending my first class. Coming from my disorganized method of working out, imagine walking onto the open field at Scott Carpenter Park, up to the instructor who is incredibly toned and fit. Incredibly. Toned. And fit.
I nearly turned around and walked away.
Thankfully I didn’t. Throughout our 5 weeks together I came to look forward to my 6 AM. self-​inflicted «torture»; I become acquainted with my classmates who were a diverse bunch and the most fun people you could hope to meet (which made each hour fly by); and I was consistently challenged by the exercises and circuits our instructor Terri planned for us, all the while having an absolute blast.
As others have mentioned, anyone can sign up and participate in this class — all ages and body types.
Additional good things about Fitness for Living: emails and communication that were sent to us throughout the session with helpful tips and information; the flexibility (if we missed a class we were able to make it up with a different class); and the openness to share the Bootcamp experience with others through their «Bring a Friend» days and their special Saturday workouts.
My only complaint? I wish the sessions were longer than 5 weeks. By the time we were finished, it seemed like as a class we were just hitting our stride. It was sad to see everyone part ways.
Verdict: If you are looking for a workout experience that will challenge you — even if you are at an advanced level of fitness — this is the place for you.

I love FITLIVE bootcamp. I’ve done about 6 sessions over the last few years and all of the instructors are all great. It’s an awesome way to have consistency and to push yourselves. Unlike most athletic endeavors in Boulder, you don’t have to be an ultra-​marathoner to participate in boot camp. There are people of all fitness levels in every class. I’ve been in sessions with 30 year old marathoners and 55 year dudes who haven’t exercised in years in my classes. You just go at your own pace. Everyone is supportive and you can always find a buddy at your level who can push you.
Sometimes I feel like I am filming some cheesy exercise video because I am lifting weights while staring at Chautauqua. I can definitely handle that kind of cheese. Exercising outdoors seems a lot less like exercise.

Boot Camp with Linzee was great. I’d recommend it to anyone.
