“While out for a walk on the beach with my husband and dog, I was complimented with the comment “who is your personal trainer – you are in such great shape” Not bad for almost 60. -Sophia Suda
Surviving & Succeeding
Paul has taught me that I don’t need these muscles. He has trained me to use my other muscles to do everything that my rectus abdominal muscles did before. Paul has taught me that the body can retrain itself to do anything that it needs to do and that there is no such word as “can’t” except in our own mind. I like going to “Boot Camp” so much better than just going to the gym or trying to work out by myself. It’s nice to work out in the sunshine and fresh air at the park for that hour a day. It gives me the energy to get through the rest of my day. Many of the moms bring their young children and the kids love their hour at the park also. There are people that are beginners and people that have been there for years, but Paul makes sure that everyone gets a good workout.
The best part about “Boot Camp” is that you have a support system with Paul and all of the other trainees that are there. Everyone is very supportive and the time usually flies by because we socialize at the same time that we are working out. We like to whine and complain, but Paul always has a smile on his face because he knows that it is always in fun. Kathy D’Agostino – Coto de Caza back to top
Just Do It!
I would recommend this camp to everyone. A friend told me about this camp and since I have started I am committed in continuing this healthy lifestyle as long as I am able. I completed 2 camps, and then was forced to take a break due to a difficult pregnancy. As soon as I was released after delivery I rejoined the camp. This camp keeps me motivated and dedicated to my goals as I continue to see quick results in weight loss and a stronger, healthier “ME”. - Atousa Ligtvoet “I highly recommend Fighting Fit Boot Camp for everyone. It’s challenging and fun and Paul & Amy are with you every step of the way. You’ll be amazed at what you can accomplish. If you are thinking about getting in to better shape, this is it. I am in the best shape of my life." "It’s hard, it was hard work the 1st time, and it’s still hard work and sooo worth it!" This is my 5th month. I started with the kickboxing classes. In January I did my first boot camp currently I am in the last week of my second camp, and plan on doing the next one and the next one and the next one... Other then losing 16 pounds and many inches, I feel and look better and stronger today then I ever did before. Well, I LOVE the kickboxing classes. It is a complete body workout in one hour. I love punching and kicking the bag, it’s a healthy way for me to get rid of my demons. |

I really feel that the Fighting Fit Boot Camp is a great way to get in shape; it is a completely different type of work out then I have ever participated in (the use of kettle bells), but I see results with my amount of strength, muscle definition of my body and on the scale. Paul keeps things moving and always changing the routine so we never get bored of the workout. A friend of my family has been taking part in the boot camp for some time and after seeing her body change and hearing her talk about it, I felt that I could give it a try. She didn’t mince words when she said it was going to be difficult, but it has been well worth the pain so far and I look forward to returning to the next session of camp!!! - Misty Elsasser
Prior to doing this camp, I worked out with a trainer twice a week. There really is not a comparison. The Kettlebell Camp is definitely more intense. I also enjoy this training because the activitys change every session. It doesn’t feel like the same old thing as when going to the gym. I truly enjoy the variety and intensity of the workout now. I was basically badgered into coming to this Kettlebell thing by my daughter and a good friend. I have to say, I did not appreciate them much after the first day. In fact "did not appreciate" does not begin to describe my feelings. Now after four weeks though, I can say that I am very happy they convinced me to join. This camp does not compare to the gym workouts I have had in the past. I now feel stronger, I have improved my endurance, and I feel like I am accomplishing my main goals (weight Loss, cardio and strength training). I think I have always been healthy. With that said, the older I get the harder it has become to lose weight (and I needed to lose weight). Since I started this training, I have become a lot more motivated about getting back in shape and have taken the time to look closely at my nutritional needs. The training and diet seem to be working, so far I have lost twelve pounds. Thanks Paul for the motivation. - Jay Houck
"Paul encourages you to push yourself to the limit and just a little beyond. This is not a "one size fits" camp. Emphasis is placed on correct form and Paul teaches you to strengthen your areas of weakness (like old injuries) We have accomplished more in 5 weeks of camp than the last year in the gym. I would say " If you want to work hard,get great results and have great fun, this is the camp for you" I am looking forward to the summer when my son can enjoy camp too.
I have never been one to join a gym. Because of the hands on and the type of workout, I feel I want to make the effort to go to the outside for my exercise regimen. As far as my health, I have always been health conscious because of my genetics (mom died 37, dad 48) I had to do more than most. Even though I am considered thin, my blood pressure on medication was bordering on the high side. Since taking up Boot Camp and kick-boxing by blood pressure has dropped significantly. My doctor has been amazed; his comment “Keep doing whatever your are doing.”
In December of 2003 I was diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time. I had a bi-lateral mastectomy with reconstruction and my rectus abdominal muscles were used as a blood supply for the reconstruction. This left me with no rectus abdominal muscles. These are the muscles that you would use to sit up.
I really enjoy learning how to weight train with the “KettleBell” and every week Paul gives us something new and challenging to work at. Paul’s program is designed to make us strong and healthy and he gives advice on nutrition and helps us with our diet. As a result of this, one of the benefits of working out with Paul is the loss of inches.
