A large number of my Vancouver boot camp clients have previously participated in the exercise program offered by the franchised boot camp company. I have yet to talk to a single person who’s had anything positive to say about their exercise program. The most recent criticism I’ve heard was regarding the large amount of jogging involved. According to people who have participated in the program, some days they would be sent jogging for the first 20 minutes of the workout, and again for the last 20 minutes of the workout. Paying for a 60-minute boot camp workout and spending two thirds of the time jogging makes for one of the worst valued workouts you’ll find anywhere in Vancouver.
Today at my evening boot camp workout, as I noticed the franchised boot camp company begin with their usual jog, I took a moment to mention to my group that I will NEVER include jogging in any of my workouts. If you’re a boot camp client of mine and you want to jog, you can do that outside of my boot camp program, perhaps with one of the many (free) running groups in the area. There is absolutely NO reason to pay money to jog.
I sincerely believe that the franchised boot camp company’s program is one of the worst exercise programs ever designed, and that is unquestionably among the lowest valued and poorest quality group fitness workouts in Vancouver. There are so many great options for group workouts in Vancouver that provide an infinitely higher quality workout than the franchised boot camp company’s program, and often at a significantly lower price, with substantially smaller class sizes. I can only assume that the people participating in the franchised boot camp company’s program have not done any research into all of the great workout programs that are available in Vancouver.
