Gen (G.S.P) I have had the pleasure of being part of Iron Camp Fitness for the last year and a half. I have also been lucky enough to not only be a trainee, but a trainer as well with BootCamps, IRONFIT classes and FemSport. After competing in a fitness competition in 2012, and the main purpose to exercising was to lean out for the big comp day, I had developed a very distorted idea of what weight training was supposed to be and how my body was suppose to look. I was looking for something new and different from the conventional weight training of picking heavy things up and putting them down. I remember being in the now War Room, which was then just a stretching room watching Santo teach someone how to use the Battle Ropes. I thought to myself wouldnt that be fun ... words I would later dually regret and live by. I had found exactly what I needed. The Iron Camp team is a wonderful group of dedicated individuals that have become my Fort McMurray family. I am stronger than I have ever been physically and psychologically. I have realized with Santo and the teams help that a change in appearance is only a bonus; put the work in and the rest will come in time. My mindset has changed from losing weight to seeing just how far I can push myself, setting new goals and surpassing them; i.e. push ups, no assist pull ups, winning a medal at Femsport. The Ironcamp classes push you as far as you thought possible and then further, even when youre ready to give up or maybe throw up, the team somehow keeps you going and motivated to push harder. A big thank you to the entire Ironcamp team for being great trainers, supporters, friends and team mates! It has also allowed me to meet some of the greatest girls Ive met so far in Fort McMurray, which was a blessing since girls are hard to come by in this town. I could go on for days telling you how great it is, but if you havent tried it yet, I challenge you! the only way you will know Ironcamp is the real deal, is by getting out there and jumping in with both feet first.
