"I just finished up the 6 week class. I loved it! I net lost over 20 lbs of fat, and feel better then I have ever felt. Get ready to cry, be sore, and be to tired to even pick up the phone at work...But I guarantee you will see results, if you just TRY to keep up...take it from the Queen of Modification! Just ask Banjo!!" Deidre, BOOT CAMP #2
"When I first started the
boot camp program in Feb, I was probably one of the heaviest boot
campers out there and I was scared! Well, I did it and the
results have been worth every minute of the sore muscles and the pain of
making a diet change. Through the last two boot camps,
I lost 63 pounds and gained a new self respect
that I CAN make a change in a few short weeks. The accountability and
structure of the classes are one of the best features of the boot camp,
as well as the instructors knowledge and input. I want to tell you all
that I huffed and puffed, and even felt embarrassed at times, but each
day that I went back I got a little
stronger,
a little
thinner
and realized that with hard work and commitment I could get results. You
CAN DO IT TOO!"
"I did the first boot camp. I was so worried I couldn't keep up w/ the younger girls-I'm 52. Even though I've been a member of Longevity for over 5 years I had become complacent w/ my workouts. Yes, I would show up but I needed boot camp get a "jump-start". I started my fitness journey all those years ago close to 200 lbs and today I'm in the 130's. In boot camp I lost 9.6% body fat and almost 14 lbs. You all will be fine. I won't tell you it was easy but it was worth every sore muscle. I know you will roll your eyes when I say this but; if I can do it anyone can! Just keep showing up! Let me know if I can help any of you. See you at the gym" Barb Trumble, BOOT CAMP #1 READ MORE

LONGEVITY'S 6-WEEK BOOT CAMP
Longevity's Boot Camp program was designed by Steve Pfiester, owner/operator and trainer for Bridal Boot Camp coming to Country Music Television later this year.
The six week program combines some of the same military drills Steve did in Basic Training along with some of Steve's favorite aerobic exercises to help you get the results you want as fast and effectively as possible. In addition, each Longevity trainer has added their own unique training styles and exercises to make this program the most diverse and intense training you will ever experience.
Is it for everyone? No. Longevity's Boot Camp is not called Boot Camp for nothing! It is designed to whip you into shape fast just like the military. Also like the military, you will come out a winner! Longevity's Boot Camp comes with a workbook, dog tags, body composition, accountability and a LOT of intense boot camp style training with Longevity trainers, Paula, Sharon, Steve, Angie and Banjo.
PLEASE NOTE: It is recommended all participants see a physician prior to registration.
"I just want to let you know what a great job Paula & Banjo are doing for the green team. It is exhausting but they keep motivating me to push a little further, without making me feel like a failure when I can't do it all. My husband & daughters see such a difference in my appearance, my mood and my outlook on things. My oldest daughter motivated me to get this temporary tattoo to remind me to keep pushing myself to the limit. Each time I'm doing push ups I see it to remind me to keep on going. Thanks for doing the boot camp..." Becky
"..this is the most amazing thing I have ever been a part of. I am doing things I did not think were possible in a million years and just a month later." Robin
"Thank you, thank you, thank you……this is the best program ever. It is only the third day and I feel so optimistic about losing fat and gaining muscle. The workouts are intense (Sharon killed us this morning) and I just love my group and trainer-GO GREEN!" Barb
"WOW! I never thought working out could be this much fun! I am so thankful for this experience. I feel great (after my ice packs and motrin at night). :-) Having so many people involved and cheering you along is awesome! That is what a TEAM is all about and boy...do we have an OUTSTANDING TEAM or what...GO GREEN!!" Heather M.
"BOOT CAMP IS AWESOME and so is my trainer Sharon .. I have never been pushed so hard and I love it I will get that Golden Ticket before its all over .. THE BLUE TEAM KNOWS WHAT THAT MEANS.. Thanks to Longevity and all the trainers involved .. GO BLUE!" Heather K.
"Tracie is AWESOME! She has worked us beyond our limits, and we have the aches and pains to proove it! GO BLACK! Lets keep up the positive attitude and continue to encourage one another to be the best we can be."
"I just want to say this is the best thing to happen to me since jellybeans were invented LOL..not that I'm eating any. LOL... I love the team and group sessions. They are so much fun. I push myself more than I have in a long time. I can't wait until the next session..." Patty K.
"I just wanted to say Thank you to the trainers and everyone involved. I have been so bummed the last few months because I have only been losing about .2 pounds a week. After 1 week of boot camp I have lost 3 pounds. The workbook and the boot camp classes are really working." Courtney
"WOW says it all! Thank you Sharon for pushing us to our limits. As excruciating as some of the exercises are, I love every minute of it! GO BLUE ANGELS!!!" Julie
"This experience has forced me to ask for help in areas that I normally would have just not dealt with. Last week I hit the place where I would normally have quit. I felt like I could not keep doing this. Everything hurt, and emotionally, I was just drained. I cried as I ran my laps around the building...not the first time either! I was able to finish that class and keep coming back BECAUSE my trainer and my team mates believe in me, even when I don't! That is what makes this program so special...we are working together, pushing each other, cheering each other on and celebrating our accomplishments!" Kerrie

Experience Freedom in a Structured Program, by Bonnie Pfiester from YourHub TCPalm
Ironically, in the land of the free, millions of people are more than willing to give up their freedom at the chance of losing weight and getting in shape. Everyone who has seen Biggest Loser or Fat March knows ahead of time what to expect, yet it doesn’t stop people from trying out for weight loss reality TV. I saw this kind of willingness at our Boot Camp kick off event. Eighty women showed up for a day of intense boot camp style training. Clearly, it was training like they’ve never experienced before. From teens to seniors, everyone gave it their all. Several women exercised with tears flowing down their cheeks, a display of determination I had never seen before. These women wanted a change and they were ready to do whatever it took to get rid of their ball and chain once and for all. Why is it people are so willing to go to such extreme measures? I believe everyone wants to lose weight. Everyone wants to be a success. Unfortunately, the same freedom we are given to succeed is also the same freedom that allows many of us to fail. This is why people look for opportunities to almost be “forced” to succeed. We also need support structure. You may not need a program as extreme as boot camp, but you may need some kind of support system. It is too easy to get discouraged when you are alone. Hopelessness can set in and overshadow even the greatest success. However, when you have support, you have better chances of pulling through in the down times. It doesn’t matter how strong you are – we all have our down times. I even need support. There are many times I wouldn’t run by myself if my mom didn’t run with me. There are numerous times I would get caught up in work and miss a workout if I didn’t have a workout partner I was accountable to. This is exactly why support groups, personal trainers and group programs are so effective. Camaraderie is a powerful force. I’ve already seen it begin to grow in the beginning stages of our boot camp. People need each other more than we want to admit. Although you may have to give up a little of your freedom as you share your journey with others or follow someone’s lead, there is no better feeling than experiencing the freedom of healthy living.

Can't participate? Get the Book!
If you were unable to do Longevity's Boot Camp, you can
still get help with our workbook. Longevity's Boot Camp Workbook*,
written by local and national fitness columnist Bonnie Pfiester,
addresses motivation, commitment, sabotage, bad habits, diet, exercise
and so much more. The workbook also offers a 6 week journal section to track
your calories and exercise routine.
Since Bonnie believes that getting healthy is a process,
Bonnie took a practical approach by creating an interactive book which
asks the readers specific questions designed to help them through their
weigh loss journey. "My desire is that this book helps people
'get' healthy living once and for all. I don't want to just give people
information - there's plenty of that out there, I want them to truly
have a better understanding of why they have battled their weight all
their life and how they can control it. The more they understand what
they have to do, the more apt they are to do it and the more successful
they will be. To me, it's about connecting the dots."
Bonnie Pfiester
* Longevity Boot Camp Workbooks are available at
Longevity for $20.
