Burn Boot Camp: The gateway to movement
In the world of fitness, few names resonate quite like Burn Boot Camp. What started as a mission to empower women and ignite transformation has grown into a full-blown movement that's changing lives one workout at a time. Camps are popping up all over the country and an alarming rate and one can only hope that this continues. But what makes Burn so unique isn't just the calorie-torching, high-intensity workouts—it's the combination of community and consistency that makes lasting change possible.
As physical therapists, we’ve seen firsthand how Burn Boot Camp transforms not just bodies, but lives. Yeah, occasionally we have to help members deal with aches and pains, but they are always motivated to get back to camp! From improved mobility to enhanced mental health, this isn’t just fitness. This is FUNCTIONAL, SUSTAINABLE HEALTH. Let’s face it, those who join Burn Boot Camp get addicted and THEY DON’T LEAVE. Good! That’s the end goal now isn’t it?
How Burn Boot Camp Supports Physical Wellness
1. Strength That Serves You
Burn focuses on functional strength training—the kind of strength that helps you lift your toddler, carry groceries without pain, or conquer a flight of stairs without getting winded. These aren’t just aesthetic gains. These are real life gains. Through the use of kettlebells, dumbbells, heavy resistance bands and their beautiful blue rig, campers are challenged to push beyond where they historically feel comfortable and they find new levels! I won’t lie, it’s fun to watch.
2. High Intensity, Low Impact Options
Each workout is scalable. As physical therapists, we LOVE this. It means people recovering from injury or managing joint issues can still train safely, with effective alternatives that don’t compromise results. The trademark FLOATING FLOOR also is amazing. As soon as you step on it, you feel why this modality is so popular. You’ll never want to do another workout without that floor. Trust me…just try it!
3. Injury Prevention + Performance
Consistency in strength, mobility, and cardiovascular training significantly reduces injury risk in daily life and in sport. Burn workouts hit all those pillars—and the trainers make sure you're moving well. Spending just a few weeks in camps and you will immediately feel the benefits of the work that you are putting in. Bonus points if you rock some of their swag (always on point)
The Burn Community: Your Secret Weapon
Let’s be honest: most people don’t stick with a workout plan because it gets boring, lonely, or overwhelming. Burn Boot Camp solves that with one word: COMMUNITY. And boy do they show up!
Support, accountability, high fives, and some serious energy are part of every single workout. And when you feel seen, supported, and challenged in the best way—you keep coming back. The proof is in the amount of people hitting 50,100, 150 and even 200 camps. Consistency is key and it’s easy to show up when you feel like you’ve FOUND YOUR TRIBE!
It’s Not Just Physical. It’s Mental and Emotional.
We’ve said this before and we’ll always say this…movement is medicine. And Burn delivers that daily dose with:
Decreased stress
Improved mood
Better sleep
Increased confidence
A group to belong to
It’s more than fat loss or six packs. It’s about becoming the strongest, most capable version of yourself. Burn is the spark for that transformation.
The hardest part is starting
“But Scott, don’t you have your own gym?” Yup. I sure do and I love when we get new members in. But our surrounding area is growing at an exponential rate and my gym can only handle so much. So we need gyms like Burn Boot Camp to help us all fight the war against decrepitude and chronic disease.
Burn Boot Camp has proven to be insanely successful at getting people OFF THE COUCH and INTO CAMP. This is something that us at CMD will support 100% of the time. We don’t care HOW you move, as long as you move often and move well and we want to encourage everybody to take the first step and simply walk into camp. Talk to a trainer. Meet some new people and change your lifestyle for the better.
You won’t regret it!
