I'm Sharon Anderson, a 58 year old woman who found a way to peel off those unwanted pounds and inches of fat that |"mysteriously'' appeared on my body after menopause. Before I knew it I had gained weight and inches in my chest and waist. I'd always focused on the hips, being a pear shaped woman. Now I had to worry about my waist and chest in addition to my butt and hips. I could not diet away the added weight and inches like I had in my younger days when I had a metabolism that functioned properly.
I needed to do something significantly different. I needed a "Kick in the BUTT'' (it's all about the BUTT at boot camp) and enrolled in Maureen Corristan's Adventure Boot Camp in Sarasota, FL. I didn't think I could get up and exercise at 5:45 in the morning but since I needed to make some major changes I signed up for the three times a week boot camp. After attending two sessions of three times a week, I increased to at-tending the five days a week sessions. Maureen training is helping me be functionally fit. The interval circuit, core and weight training she has us do has helped me with my balance, endurance, energy level, flexibility, muscle strength, tone up and lose weight.
Maureen stresses the importance of good nutrition along with exercise. At the July's boot camp Maureen directed us to a meal plan that corresponds to the intensity of our workouts. I attended boot camp 5 days a week for those four weeks and followed the meal plan. I not only lost weight but what excited me most was the inches that I lost in my chest, waist and hip measurements.
I'm very encouraged by my success in slimming down and becoming fit (I'm still a work in progress). I have proven to myself that I can to this. Maureen keeps the workouts fresh (she's very funny) and challenging.. She corrects my form when it needs it and encourages me to do more. Her knowledge of fitness is extensive and she practices what she preaches. She is passionate about helping women be functionally fit through good nutrition and exercise. I'm thrilled to be attending her boot camp and plan on staying with the program.

I just wanted to Say that Maureen has been the best coach, instructor, and teacher. I have been on many sport teams in my life (winning teams' haha!) and I have to say this has been by far the greatest workout that I have done without running hills, sprints & jogging. Her attention to detail and focus on the correct way to move the human body has made me feel confident in my daily routine. I want to say Thank you for giving me the tools I need to make a more positive me...

Joining Sarasota Adventure Boot Camp literally changed my life. I was overweight and short of breath doing the least of tasks and knew I needed something to kick start my metabolism. I had witnessed a fabulous change in the physique of a friend of mine and asked what her secret was - SABC she said! I signed up, and a few programs later I was several pounds lighter, several inches smaller, and best of all I could walk up a flight of stairs without getting winded. Even more telling was my annual visit to my doctor. He was impressed with the changes and most impressed with the drop in my cholesterol, just a mere 37 points! The individualized instruction, the comraderie with women who are determined to make a change in their lives, and the excellent results are all part of the package you get at SABC. It is truly the best gift I have given myself.

Maureen is wonderful and has a great sense of humor! She is very knowledgeable and "hands-on". She is very quick to correct poor form and demonstrates each exercise. I still don't know how she remembers everyone's ailments, but she does and she always has an alternate way to perform an exercise to minimize stress and chances of injury. Having an alternate method is also great for addressing the different fitness levels of the group. This way everyone can do the entire routine. It really helps to build confidence and encourages you to try harder as your fitness level changes. I lost 10 lbs. in 8 weeks! More importantly, the confidence I gained is even greater! Thank You!
