W.O.D. May 16th, 2009

This weeks W.O.D. is named after our long time Bootcamper Marie.

For the last month, we have been hosting a 5pm & a 6pm class in Renfrew.

That's Bootcamper of the Week material without a doubt.

Too bad Marie has to work this weekend and miss her W.O.D. .....

*Reminder, the gym is closed on Monday, May 18th,

SO THERE WILL BE NO BOOTCAMP!

W.O.D. Jan 5th, 2009

Happy New Year everyone!
I am going to start with the write up on the 2009 Bootcamp games!
We had an alright turn-out with 7, which was a little less than we were hoping for, but everyone that came out gave it their all, and boy, did we have a close race!
Our first W.O.D was "Tabata Somethin' Else" which definitely separates the men from the boys, or should I say women from the men???
We used the following exercises:

Squats
Push Press
Stage Jumps
Leg Raises
Jump ropes
Every rep was a point. With 20 seconds of work, and 10 seconds of rest for a total of 8 rounds.

Next after a short break and taste testing of one of our best selling protein supplements Mango Splash, we continued on the track to greatness with "To the End".
This W.O.D. was scored by best time.
25 Burpees
50 Push ups
75 Squats
100 Sit ups
75 Squats
50 Push ups
25 Burpees
What an ass-kicker!!
Great effort given by everyone who participated. Unfortunately our computer won't let me post pictures, but stay tuned and we will have some great action shots posted up soon enough.
Overall it was an awesome day, and looking forward to starting the new block.
The bar is set....

"People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing-that's why we recommend it daily."
-Zig Ziglar

W.O.D. December 4th, 2008

W.O.D.
"The Lunge Buffet"
Do as many rounds in 20 minutes as you can

To start you will do 7 burpees.

At the other end you will be doing 15 situps.

In between you will be doing lunges.

One round= 7 burpees > 10 lunges > 15 situps > and then back 10 lunges.

Think of the burpees as your appetizer, and the sit ups as your dessert!
Make sure you keep your form on all exercises but push the pace at which you are working!!!!

Good example of proper burpees...




Oh, and below is your motivational video of the day. Pregnant chick doing pull ups, and good ones at that! Moral of the story, being pregnant or being pregnant last year is no excuse for skipping out on some hard work at the gym. How many times have I heard "I can't do that I just had a baby 12 months ago..." Bullsh*%#!

“If you think you can, you can. And if you think you can’t, you’re right.”

W.O.D. November 28th, 2008

It's Friday.

T.G.I.F.

Another week coming to a close. And with that, can you say that you accomplished something new with your work outs?

I am talking about getting an extra rep in your Turkish get ups, or squeezing out a few more squats, or maybe smashing your previous best on the 250m row. What about cleaning up your diet one meal at a time?

Well, did ya?

Always remember, just getting to the gym is not enough. This does prove to be a challenge when every day life sometimes gets in the way, but it really pays off when you try to improve something every single time you work out. It doesn't have to be something worthy of Guinness Book of World Records, but it all adds up at the end of the day.

So, next time you are about to ask me why someone else is getting results and you aren't, think about whether you are pushing yourself to the limit. Cause if you aren't getting the results you want, you are the only one who can change that.

"There is no traffic on the extra mile."

W.O.D.

THE PYRAMID
You will start with 1 squat, 1 pushup and 1 situp. You will then proceed to 2 squats, 2 pushups, 2 situps…3, 3, 3 and so on. You will do this for 10 minutes. When the 10 minutes are up, finish the round you are on. You will then rest for 3 minutes. After your rest period, start at the round you finished on (ex. 13). You will then proceed to down the line 13, 13, 13….12, 12, 12….and so on.

Keep a fast pace, and rest only after the 10 minute mark.

Good luck and enjoy your weekend.

WOD Thursday November 27th

Hey Kids, it's Paul here filling in for Sarah on today's post.
I just wanted to let you all know that I tackled "to the end" last night and pumped it out in 18:55. Now before you start making fun of me for that time, let me remind you that I do my burpees with a full push-up and now I'm gonna be expecting that you guys start working on doing them that way as well.

Let's kick things up a notch heading into the Christmas Party Season. (And stay tuned here for eating ideas and how to avoid packing on un-wanted pounds)
