UPDATE: It’s hard to believe that 11 months have passed since I took a leap into the unknown and joined Burn Boot Camp Centerville on January 8th, 2024.
At the time, they were offering an incredible promotion: 4 weeks for $69. This included unlimited camps, one-on-one focus meetings with the fitness coaches, a full-body scan (that not only measures your weight but as well as your skeletal muscle mass, body fat percentage and more), and—a bonus for parents—free childwatch during workouts!
At that point, I had tried everything from apps to zumba classes but I was always at a loss, I never saw any progress. So this felt like the perfect opportunity to try something new, but I never could have imagined how transformative this decision would be.
After my first month, I knew I couldn’t stop. There was something about Burn Boot Camp that I couldn't quite put my finger on yet. Even though it wasn’t cheap, I convinced my fiancé—who had his reservations—to help support me financially so I could keep going for six more months. I knew I had something to prove, both to myself and to him.
By the end of those six months, I wholeheartedly believed in everything Burn Boot Camp stands for. That’s why I made the decision to commit to another 18 months, and I now pay for it myself because I know it’s one of the best investments I’ve ever made—and one of the best gifts I could ever give myself.
If you break it down and truly work toward your goals, the results you achieve—both physically and mentally—are priceless. Burn Boot Camp has given me a healthy outlet for when life or work gets stressful or overwhelming. Every time I go, I leave happier, even on those days when I had to force myself out of bed and out the door.
Over the last 11 months, I’ve also done things I never thought I could. I competed in the Level Up Games not once but twice—something I would have laughed at in the past if someone suggested it. Sure, I struggled through it, but the most rewarding part was completing it both times and realizing I was stronger and better than before.
When I injured myself and ended up in a walking boot, with limitations on what I could do, Caitlin—the lead coach—was incredible. She helped me with modifications so I could stay as consistent as possible and keep attending camps. That kind of support and encouragement makes all the difference.
The coaches at Burn Boot Camp are truly amazing. Special shoutouts to Caitlin (the "Queen Beast," as I call her), Julianna, Justin, Jen, Tiffany, and Patti for always pushing me, challenging me, and motivating me to give my best every single time. Don't worry, they will even call you out on your bs if you're caught making a face. 😅 They genuinely care about each member and want to see us succeed—not just in the gym, but in life.
Over the last 11 months, I’ve brought countless friends with me, and the majority of them loved it even if its not the right fit for them! I will tell anyone who will listen, I do not get paid for any of this, I share because I just love Burn and believe in it that much! If you’re on the fence, Burn Boot Camp offers a free 3-day trial with no commitments. It’s not for everyone, but for those it is for, it becomes almost addicting to see what your body and mind can accomplish.
11 months and over 230 camps later (trying to hit that 250 by the end of 2024), I’ve become stronger, healthier, and more confident than ever before. Burn Boot Camp is so much more than a gym—it’s a place where lives are changed, and I’m beyond grateful for this incredible journey I have been able to...

Read moreMy amazing husband was active duty in the Army when he was killed while training for a specialized unit, 16 months ago. Through the grief, I ultimately ended up gaining quite a bit weight, and losing strength, despite my health and fitness background, and very active lifestyle, previously. My health was quickly declining, and knew I needed to make some serious changes for our three young children. A friend invited me this summer to a camp at Burn Boot Camp with her, and I fell in love with it! I love how the camps are structured, it’s always a new workout, a new focus, and always challenging and rewarding. I am always met with kindness, encouragement, and compassion. Focus meetings with the trainers (which are included in your membership- no extra fees!) have helped with motivation and accountability I was lacking. Since joining just over four months ago, I’ve lost 30lbs, and over 11% body fat! I’m also gaining strength and muscle.
When we lost my husband, we were living in Colorado. After living away for years, I moved back to Ohio with my children a few months after my husband passed to be closer to family. Burn has given me a place to meet wonderful people, and help rebuild my community here. My kids LOVE coming to child watch (also free with membership!), and I’m so grateful for it. Being a now solo parent, the child watch enables me to come consistently to camps. I cannot...
