For time

(Danville did reverse flys instead of Knees to Elbows)

Hope you all had fun!

Remember FITNESS comes from training to preform better! Many people pursue "fitness" as a goal in inself and wonder why they find it so hard to stay motivated - why they work-out 5 days a week in a gym but still can't play soccer with thier kids without getting out of breath, and wonder why they hurt their back doing something so simple as picking up a box.

At boot camp we hold regular fitness tests - which are also amazing work-outs - in order to get you to push past your barriers, break new ground in your fitness, and give you something to "train" for. The tests allow you to measure your progress. doing the tests for "time" (speed) brings that "race" mentallity to the work-outs. It's this mentallity which will allow you to go from just looking fit - to actually being fit.
