Reba


We have always claimed to have the most beautiful women in our workout. Our workout is no cake walk. Our ladies perform with amazing grace and charm. They run all over town at paces not normal for most folks. They lay on the ground and knock out hundreds of various exercises...while talking. While our beauties are in serious physical shape, they don't take themselves too seriously. They genuinely care for each other and brighten all of our days. Our girls can be as tough as nails and as gentle as a baby lamb.

Rebecca is an amazing physical specimen. She comes from good stock and has had generations of examples of good living. She is well taken care of by her loving husband and her adoring girls. AND, she has spent years disciplined in Boot Camp.

She is having a milestone birthday that baffles the imagination. While she is now eligible to compete in the Masters division of local road races, she will have a tough time getting folks to believe it!

Summer Camp

John Started in Boot Camp at age 7
Students are always welcome to join us for FREE. We encourage kids to participate with friends and family as often as they would like. Participants are encouraged to bring students that are willing to join.

Any student that shows an interest in running would thrive in our workout. Any child that has talent would produce a level of base fitness that would produce fast times. Our workout is the perfect summer program for Middle school and High School Cross Country runners.

Working out with our children allows us to connect with them on an entirely different level. We get to know folks pretty well by running down the street and laying in the grass with them. It is the same with our children. 

Giving a child discipline in fitness may be one of the greatest gifts we can give them. Over the years, we have had kids grow up in the workout. Virginia has grown up in the workout. She has maintained her fitness discipline throughout college. She will graduate soon perhaps in the best shape of her life. She works out on her own while she is away at school.

Our program is the perfect low mileage program for kids who are growing. John has yet to hit puberty. While his skeleton is soft and about to grow, running a bunch of miles could hurt him. He is a rising 9th grader looking to contribute to his varsity Cross Country Team next year. We have spent the last two years slowly increasing his weekly mileage and exercise repetition count. On an average of 25 miles and 2,500 repetitions of exercise a week, John was able to run a personal record of 11.02 in the two mile this year. While he is a very talented runner, most kids running that fast are training almost 40 miles a week.

Our fitness works also for tennis, golf, baseball, swimming, volleyball, cheerleading, wrestling, and soccer. Bring the kids to workout. If they like it, they will come back.

Time to lean out

Fast Women
We aim to peak for these dates every year:

May 25 - Memorial Day
June 21st - Fathers Day
July 4th - Independence Day

The average temperature during the next 3 months will be HOT in Atlanta. Most folks will choose to stay in the air condition, bitch about the heat and make excuses about why they don't work out.

We are going to get up early and work out before the air quality is insufferable. Then we are going to spend the rest of the day feeling good about it. Some of us will be looking thin & traversing the earth on foot at freakishly quick paces.

Join us every weekday!

The Drama of Your Morning



Exposition - The Alarm goes off. There is awareness of some annoyance in the room interrupting an awesome dream about flying over a beach in the south of France. The alarm is turned off and the bargaining and rationalizations begin. Just 5 more minutes of sleep and I swear I'll get up. The first thoughts of the day begin to trickle in. "I got to go to the bathroom". Damn, I'm already up. I might as well get dressed and go.

Rising Action - There is a chance a short sleeve shirt will be okay this morning. There is still a slight chill in the air. If I wear a long sleeve dry fit, it wont be as hot as a cotton long sleeve. Are there any socks that match this outfit? Do these shorts go with this shirt? What time is it? Time to get into the car. This is a great song. Man there is no one on the road this morning. Maybe if I flash my high beams at this red light, it will think I am an ambulance and turn green. Okay park. Who in the heck is parking in my spot? Don't these people now I have been parking here for three years. Weirdo! Smile, Good Morning, Good Morning, How are you?

Climax - Lets go. What did he say? Is this ground wet? How many of these are we going to do? Wow, check that out. We don't see that every day. What did she say? Then what did you say? I"ll tell you what I said. I am going to  give you a ton of attention while you brag about your kid, remembering every detail so I can match your brag with a possible raise. What a minute, What is that knucklehead screaming about? Holy Cow these folks are hauling ass. Let me catch my breath. Hang on.

Falling Action - We are heading back. How much further do we have to go? It is all down hill from here. Watch that car. That guy was not looking. Jeez these cops work this section of Peachtree every morning. Watch that hole in the sidewalk. Almost there.

Denouement - Thank God its over. It is really light outside. Do we have time for a cup of coffee? Oh no, don't tell me that creeper is going to take off his shirt and then hug me. Y'all have a great Day! Will we see you tomorrow? I hope to see you tomorrow.

The Peachtree Road Race is in 58 days

These girls are ready to run and/or go to the pool

There is still time to get in shape for the World Famous Peachtree Road Race. Even the folks who are not running want to be in shape on the 4th of July for the Beach/Pool.

Going to boot camp is very social, interesting, educational, sometimes spiritual, sometimes naughty, very refreshing, and a great workout. Getting in shape with a great group of people is awesome.

Looking HOT on the 4th of July is icing on the cake.
