Who can join CAPTAIN QUINNâ€™S BOOT CAMP?

Captain Quinnâ€™s Boot Camp is for men and women of all ages, and fitness abilities.

Do I have to be in shape?

NO!!!! That's our job. In the beginning, we will assess your current fitness level through a few basic Exercises. If you're worried that you can't do one push-up, that's o.k. You're not alone. You don't have to be in shape to join. No one gets left behind. All Boot Camp instructors will explain and demonstrate all exercises motivate you with positive reinforcement (and maybe a little tough love) to do your best. If you think you're already in shape, don't worry: the Captain has a few surprises for you too.

What will I be doing while I am there?

All recruits will be led through a series of warm-ups, stretches, calisthenics Strength Training, Circuit Training, short running drills, obstacle courses and whatever other surprises we have in store for that day. The Workouts are built around the concept of metabolic training: the combination of low, medium, and high intensity anaerobic and aerobic workouts at varying intervals - enabling you to burn the most fat, build lean, quality muscle and increase your aerobic capacity. We make the workouts fun and challenging at the same time. The more effort you put into the class, the more results you will get out of it. We also do everything we can to ensure everyone stays injury free. All workouts are developed by Captain Quinn, a Certified Personal Trainer, and are designed so that you can work at your level.

Bring your best effort and a team spirit! The harder you work, the greater the benefit. But, know your limits. If you feel sick, dizzy, or out of breath, its OK to take a break or slow down a bit. We'll all encourage you but no one will push you to do anything you don't want to do. Likewise, we are all in this together. Anyone heard talking down to, insulting, or making negative comments to another recruit will be warned once. If it happens again, he or she will be asked to leave for good. NO EXCEPTIONS. We are a team.
