McDowell Wellness Center offering boot camp
McDowell Wellness Center is offering two sessions of its popular Boot Camp to get individuals in shape while losing weight.
A Morning Boot Camp begins Jan. 21, meeting from 5:20-6:20 a.m. It will meet each Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
A Women’s Only Boot Camp specifically designed to help overweight women get in shape while losing weight will begin 7:30-8:30 p.m. Jan. 28. At the initial class, participants will weigh, check their body-fat percentage and take body measurements. After the first class, the group will meet each Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for six weeks. Each participant will have a one-on-one session with a registered dietician at McDowell Wellness Center. All campers will weigh in weekly and keep a food journal.
All sessions last six weeks and are comprised of exercises that are used to train military personnel. These include push-ups, sit-ups, jumping jacks, crunches, up-downs, walking and running.
The cost of the Women’s Only Boot Camp is $75 for Wellness Center members and $100 for non-members. The Morning Boot Camp is $40 for Wellness Center members and $70 for non-members.
