Testimonial:

Written by Gay Wilhem, 67yrs old, 5 weeks in Longevity's 6-Week Boot Camp

 

"I needed this and I did not care who said I was 'too old' (no way!)...or not strong enough

(oh yes I am!)...not physically able to keep up (you just watch me)..."

 

"This Boot Camp experience has been life changing in many ways. I have been hearing "Boot Camp" for a few years and it always interested me but I never did anything about it. A friend mentioned it right after Christmas....saying she had a friend...and it just lit a fire. I went to Longevity on a Saturday and the first darling person I met was Jamie, who graciously showed me around and encouraged me to sign up and said she was sure I could do it.

My husband has been 110% behind me all the way....he always stands behind me on anything I want to do. He has had my hot Epson Salts bath ready when I get home each night and dinner on the table for my ravenous and aching body and encouragement when I thought I could not go on, always saying "I know you can do it"!!! He is the BEST.

Then came the resistance and the questions and the negativity - why do I need to do it, what do I need to prove, etc., etc., etc......the friends.. my kids...not so much encouragement!!!! I had a friend ask if I didn't know my limitations and when I read that I thought....NO, I do not accept that because I a 67 I have limitations...I can do ANYTHING I decide to do....I am healthy and determined and intelligent and I can do this. I have taken Pilates for years and am strong but have kind of let things slip in the last few years...My stamina has slipped listening to women my age who I hear saying..."I used to"...or "not at my age"...or "not any more". I always shy away from those words and thoughts. I wanted to really ramp it up...get back to my full potential and ability. I was so excited and so scared and apprehensive.

I arrived the first Saturday for Orientation and we jumped right in. Steve (the head Boot Camp Trainer) let us know immediately that we were there to work...no slouches. I truly thought there was no way I could do it!!! But I did get through it - almost dead, but exhilarated!! I paid my money, had my before picture taken, and I was IN!!! In retrospect, I was scared of Steve because he was so tough that first day and now I know him as a teddy bear - the best trainer I have ever known!!!!

And then the whole thing started. Amazingly difficult and challenging, doing things I never would have believed I could do. Crawling on my stomach and climbing walls. I cried all the way home each night of the first week! There have been things I needed to modify and the coaches have been fabulous about that. The whole idea is not to compete with anyone, just do you very, very best and then I little bit more...push harder than you think you can.

 

I hurt my knee in the first week and thought I would have to stop but Steve took my in hand and worked with me, giving me direct instructions of what to do and in a week I was right back into the swing of things with my knee healed. Steve's caring commitment to every one of us is amazing!!!

 

And Steve's wife, Bonnie,...well, she is just the most amazing woman. Her encouraging messages at the end of the first week kept me in and kept me going. She blesses each of us with her guidance and knowledge and presence all the time, emailing us often with encouragement - and Bonnie's diet talks have opened up a whole new world to me. I have learned more in 5 weeks about food and diet than I have in a lifetime. I finally get it that "food is fuel". I will never again eat bread with dinner. I will look at a piece of cake as a grueling 1-hour Boot Camp. It all makes sense. Finally a health and exercise and diet regimen that makes sense and I understand.

Last night doing my very first 5K around the Longevity building 26 times...I felt like Rocky!!!!! It did not matter that I was last, what mattered was that I did it...and I jogged through at least half of it. I could not have done anything like that 5 weeks ago!!!!

It is a shock to my system....a great shock....I needed this and I did not care who said I was "too old" (no way!)...or not strong enough (oh yes I am!)...not physically able to keep up (you just watch me). There is no one to keep up with - I have just plain given it my all.

 

After 5 weeks I have lost 9.6 pounds.....and lost pounds of body fat and gained lean muscle mass. My jeans look great and I feel like a million dollars - and the very best part is the feeling of empowerment. I can do it!!! I did it!!! I loved every minute!!!

Bottom line...this is the hardest physical challenge I have ever done. It is the most beneficial for my body and health and overall self esteem. I can do anything I decide to do. I will never let anyone tell me I can't do something...I stand taller and have a lilt in my step that I know is earned!!!! For anyone, no matter what your age, who is interested....who feels a yearning when you hear "Boot Camp".......YOU CAN DO IT!!!!"
