This week we check in with Carman. Carman joined the current bootcamp with a friend so they could support each other. Hear her thoughts on what makes the NGPT Gym Family so unique.
1. What motivated you to start bootcamp?
I had been wanting to lose weight and get in shape for a while. It was like I had this nagging feeling inside me to change my life. My friend Natalie, who is also in this bootcamp, told me she was going to join so I joined too. It’s been great because we are able to support each other.
2. Describe your bootcamp experience so far
My bootcamp experience so far has been awesome!! All the trainers and coaches really care about you and your health/fitness level. Plus they’ve all been in the same situtations of being unfit, maybe not feeling the best about themselves. It nice that you can describe how you are feeling and they really can relate.
3. What’s been your favorite part so far?
My favorite part so far is seeing the changes in my fitness level with every class it take. I can do things/exercises that I couldn’t do two weeks ago. And meeting new friends who are like minded and supportive about my fitness goals.
4. What has been the most surprising part of bootcamp?
How fun it is!!! LOL Who thought working out could be a good time! The people who attend the classes are so encoraging and some of the best people I have had the pleasure of spending time with.
5. What has been the most challenging part of bootcamp?
I’ve always felt that even though I wasn’t in great shape,I was still a physically strong person. However, once I started doing the workouts I quickly realized that was not the case. I was in terrible shape for someone as young as I am. That was difficult to accept, but like I said earlier, I can feel myself getting stronger everyday and that’s what matters.
6. How has your interaction been with your coaching team and the NGPT community?
I cannot say enough about how awesome, supportive, encouraging, non-jugdemental and caring the coaches, trainers and support staff has been. Them, along with the NGTP community, have kept me on track for the past 6 weeks of bootcamp.
