The following are testimonials from participants of our
Boot Camp.



I kept hearing the girls in the office talk about the Boot Camp at Toronto Ladies Gym, and eventually decided to try it. I should’ve done it much sooner! They give you a great work-out; I feel muscles I didn’t even know I had! I have so much energy now – even after a long day in the office!
Monique Bois, Law Clerk

I like your camp because it’s such a friendly place. It’s great that your gym is for women only. You don’t have to share space or equipment with men and you feel free. It’s a place where you know you can just go, do the class the way you want, sweat, and then leave feeling proud of the effort you put in. You don’t have to be concerned about what you look like and who’s watching. It’s great!
Lea Bajarski, Software Engineer



I tried a boot camp in my neighborhood, and it wasn’t bad, but I didn’t re-sign. It was in a park, so I had to wake up at 5 AM, drive there, and after the class go back home to take a shower, then hurry to the GO station to catch my train. Too much hassle. Not to mention the weather! Yes, it’s a boot camp, but I’m not a soldier! Now I get to the gym at 7:10 AM, do the boot camp class in comfort, take a shower (sometimes even a sauna), and I’m ready for the day. I love it!!
Joy Clarkson, Senior Account Manager


For quite some time I felt I needed to exercise, but didn’t know how to start. It’s so hard to get motivated to do it on your own. I was excited when somebody gave me your flyer and decided to try your Boot Camp. After the first three weeks, I lost 5 pounds and felt great. I don’t want to say it’s easy, but when you work out in a group, and the instructor keeps pushing you, you can do much more than you ever thought possible!

BOOT CAMP Q & A

Q1. How does your transformation contest work?

In order to bring more excitement in your fitness efforts and give you a little more motivation, we run our Re-Shape boot camp as a transformation contest. Lose the highest percentage of your initial body weight and get your next camp for FREE!

Q2. Do I need to be in top physical shape to participate in Boot Camp?

A: No. All ages and all fitness levels are more than welcome to participate in Boot Camp at Toronto Ladies Gym. The class is tailored to YOU the individual. You will be encouraged to perform to the best of your ability, but the exercises will be conducted in a safe manner and within your capabilities.

Q3. What exercises make up Boot Camp?

A: Each Boot Camp class is one hour long. The class is divided into quarters where the
First: warm-up/flexibility/posture awareness exercises.
Second: up-tempo cardio (jumping jacks, running on the spot, & blurpies).
Third: CORE training (abdominal and back muscle strengthening).
Fourth: lower and upper body training (squats, lunges, push-ups, dips and so on).
No equipment is required or used in each training session.
All the performed exercises use your individual body weight; therefore these exercises are considered callisthenic exercises with minimal rest period.
These type of exercises will increase the muscles ability to tone and burn excess fat via safe natural movements focusing on building muscular endurance. Training your muscles in this fashion prevents nagging neck, back, knee and shoulder pains and more importantly for many of you, tones your muscles without excess bulk.

Q 4. How soon do I expect to see results?

A: There are two kinds of results we expect you to see. The first is ‘Performance Improvement’ which can take place in as little as a couple days. The second, ‘Visual Improvement’ can take several weeks depending on your effort level both in exercise and diet. It's becoming common to see a participants go down 1-2 sizes within the first camp.
Remember, everyone's body is different so your results will differ! Everyone is expected to progress. If you aren't, then you're not putting in the effort or you're missing your scheduled camp days.

Q 5. Is exercising 2 – 3 times a week enough for best results? Wouldn’t it be better to exercise more?

A: Good question! Yes, you will benefit more being physically active on a daily basis. And to help you with it, we offer you the full use of the gym for the duration of your camp for a low fee of $40. Moreover, this option allows you to keep exercising for an additional week before your next camp, should you decide to re-sign.

Q 6. How does your guarantee work?

A: Attend all your scheduled camp days within your registered four week camp. If you're not happy with Toronto Ladies Gym’s Boot Camp, then we don't want your money. We'll simply refund your registration fee within 21 business days of your request.

If you plan on attending camp to reap the benefits, then asking for a refund, please do yourself and the rest of us at camp a favor and don't register. We want women who are motivated to achieve a greater fitness level, that understand it's totally within their control to achieve such results.

Q 7. What will I do after camp is over?

A: You will get re-measured to show your progress and success in the program. We expect that most participants will be so happy with their results that they keep enrolling for multiple Boot Camps.
Remember, this isn't just four weeks and you're done. Our Boot Camp is a continuing four week fitness program. Fitness isn't just for a specified period of time, it's a lifestyle. Don't think you'll get results in four weeks and then that's it. Make exercise and supportive nutrition part of your everyday lifestyle.

Q 8. Should I eat breakfast before coming to Boot Camp?

A: It is in your best interests to begin each day with a good source of fuel to kick-start your work day. It is vitally important to provide your body with fuel when embarking on any exercise program first thing in the morning. If you are thinking of having a plate of bacon and eggs before Boot Camp, we will have the 'puke bucket' set aside for you. A light snack before Boot Camp is designed to fuel your training session.

Select one of the following food items:
1. Low-fat yogurt with fruit;
2. Whole grain crackers with low fat cheese;
3. Small energy bar (half portion of large bar);
4. 1/2 whole grain bagel with peanut butter;
5. Low fat cottage cheese mixed with pineapple.

Please keep the pre-training session meal within 250 calories.

The above list provides some options; variety is the key: low fat, low salt, low sugar is important when eating. If you prefer in-depth nutritional consultation you are welcome to use professional help from our in staff Registered Nutritionist Marina Tutino, RNCP.
