KnuckleUp Fitness Beach Bootcamp Group

So, after 5 weeks of intensive military-style training, KnuckleUp's fitness bootcamp comes to a victorious ending tomorrow (09/08).

We'll post everybody's results here as soon as they have their final weigh-ins, but our instructor Matt Costa estimates over 30 INCHES were lost by this group.

A group of 13 students lost 30 inches! That's an average of 2.3" PER STUDENT!

All of us here at the outer banks gym are extremely proud of these students: they worked REALLY hard, waking up at 5am, and completely reconfigured their bodies in the process.

So, to all of our Bootcamp students, a big CONGRATULATIONS on your accomplishment, and we hope all of you enjoy your new bodies!

A special shout out to Reverend Jay Bowman, who took charge of one of the classes when Matt was sick. Great job, Reverend!

And if you want to join Matt Costa on the next bootcamp, this time you wont have to worry about getting up too early: Matt is running the first-ever evening fitness bootcamp.

We have only a couple spots available, so sign up today - just fill in the form to the right and write "bootcamp" as your fitness goal. Matt himself or one of our instructors will contact you with all the details. Or contact us directly.

See you soon!

Pushups in the ocean at 6am

So this sleep lover decided to wake up early last Thursday to see what the buzz surrounding Matt's beach bootcamp was all about. Quite honestly, I hadn't been awake at 5am in a while, but what I saw that morning blew me away.

It's 5:34am and the gym's parking lot is full. Inside, a concentrated morning silence coming from the group of 20+ bootcamp trainees that stretch in preparation to the training.

At 5:45, Matt starts the warm up with 80 sit-ups in under 2 minutes - that sets the tone to the rest of the training. Matt is decided to get the best out of each and every student, no matter what their fitness level might be.

After the warm up, students grab their backpacks, take a military-like formation and head to the kitty hawk beach running. From here on now, they will cover a total of 7 miles, divided by a series of stops for strength training exercises such as push-ups & sit-ups,  along with sprint runs.

On my flip-flops,  there wasnt much of a chance to catch up with the group, but I was able to put together a video that highlights the scenery and the seriousness of the training.

Even though the video doesnt make any justice to Matt's well-designed series of exercises, you can see the level of commitment that his students share. 5 weeks from that Thursday, they'll experience complete body reconfiguration, improved cardio conditioning, and greater health.

But to me, the best part about the training was the scenery: the cool Outer Banks morning breeze, the chilling waters, the misty fog... Of course, I may have missed all of that had I signed up for the training. Well, maybe next time.
