Weight loss bootcamps

Just wondering if any of you have participated in one. I would like one that specializes in people who are very overweight. I could see myself getting discouraged fast if I am surrounded by fit people. I know that probably sounds crazy but it's my reality.

If you have any experience, we're they super expensive? I have a feeling they are since it is almost like hiring a personal trainer which I could not afford.

Any experiences would be appreciated

TIA

Re: Weight loss bootcamps

The gym I go to, I have watched a trainer who does "group" trainings very early in the AM, like every 30 minutes. While there are a couple of people who look super fit, what is interesting to me is there are several people in the group who are all different ages and sizes. And it's always the same people so it looks like they have become friendly and supportive of one another.

I have considered signing up but don't have the extra motivation or money right now.

I have heard good things about Crossfit too.

Unfortunately I know these things aren't cheap though.

Maybe you could look into groupon though. Sometimes there are beginner specials places that way.


Good luck. It's super hard and I know it's difficult to get out of that place that people are looking at you. This is one of the things that makes me uncomfortable with the gym.

CrossFIt is amazing. Many super fit people but others aren't. And we All have to start someplace. It is the most effective though. It pushes you past every boundary you I k you have. My friend recently lost 100 pounds by joining g and is not even doing the full workouts yet bc he still has 100 to lose.

I took a bootcamp class at The fitness loft in Manhasset. It was tough; but it had a mix of sizes. Some thin and fit; others just starting their weight loss journey. They have a Groupon going on now if you want to try it with out spending too much money.
