These workouts rock! Thanks again.

I wanted to let you know how sincerely I have enjoyed your class. I have
learned many things, the most important is that good health creates a good
life.

This is longest I have ever stayed with a workout regime and I credit
you for that. You have made it fun and challenging. The end result will
provide me with a better quality of life. I have never made that statement
to anyone in the medical community.

You have the ability to help improve peoples lives, that is truly a gift.

It was such a pleasure working with you this past month. Though I often asked myself,’ why am I putting myself through this pain?’ But, the atmosphere was great, and the groups encouraging. I looked forward to coming (well except for burpee days) and miss the group.

I have a lot to work on..but I have an excellent start. I can really see/feel the difference in my body. Thank you for your advice, inspiration and time. Looking forward to saying hi to you in Boston this summer! Continue to be well…
God bless you….

Your Boot Camp has been an awesome experience, and I see no reason to ever stop exercising with you. There is absolutely no downside to the regimen: Since I am old, I am awake and up early anyway; the socialization is wonderful; and the work is torture. What else is there? Incidentally, I am beginning to notice differences in my waist line and the way clothing fits now.

I look forward to every day and every new sadistic routine you throw at us!

I definitely am living stronger!

Your workout has been great for my endurance and strength. My vertical has changed drastically from 27″ to 33″ It seems to be going up every week!  The workouts are tough, but they are definitely worth it. I am finding myself mentally and physically stronger. Thanks for pushing me to the limits!

Your ME template (w/ accessory lifts) has been working wonders. I have been running a Total/WOD/Lower/Rest/Upper/WOD/Rest schedule and, while I am no strongman, have reached a 1X bodyweight Power Clean (at 210) and am at about a .75 bodyweight standing press. The only thing lagging is my squat. I think the workout challenges I do on my non-ME days are sucking the life out of my legs. Nonetheless, this is very encouraging considering I lifted no weights over the last 7 years as I sucked all of my strength out by focusing on Endurance running. I look forward to your next installment in the Performance Menu regarding ME work. Thanks!

I am a 43-year-old orthopedic surgeon and have participated in Boot Camp for approximately 5 months. It is clearly the best health and lifestyle decision I have made in many years. My experience as a fellowship trained sports medicine orthopedic surgeon allows me to tell you that Mike understands the scientific principles involved in athletic performance and getting into shape. His programs encompass all the elements of a world-class training program

Hey, it was good to meet you at the Black Box Summit! We have been using your 3-day MEBB template for our clients with great success. After on-ramp we start our beginners off right away using MEBB. It’s very interesting to see people’s reactions to lifting. Most come to see us to get in good shape (not to lift heavy weights – so they say…). We tell them that this is just part of getting in good shape. Typically, the women love lifting weights after they are comfortable with the lift. It is very empowering. So we just wanted to say thanks again for providing your templates and expertise. They are making us look good and in return giving our clients GREAT results.

My Boot camp journey began in March of 2008 after spending almost a year trying to get back into shape on my own. I was looking for a program that would help me to loose weight while gaining strength, endurance and increased flexibility. I did some research on-line and found Coach Rut’s website and figured I give it a try.

My first impression was that the people in the class were all very friendly and Coach Rut guides you through the exercises step by step. Now I won’t lie the workouts can be challenging but the results speak for themselves.

I originally planned to only go for one session but enjoyed the class and people I meet there that I quickly signed on for 6 months. I am really glad I did! Over that time I’ve lost a total of 22 pounds, my body fat fell by around 4-5%. Not to mention I feel better than I have in over 10 years.

I want to say first off that I am a 23 year old trainer in Nashvegas, TN that has been a fan of Crossfit and, more specifically, your affiliate for quite some time now. I have thoroughly enjoyed your Dumbbell Moves DVDs and your blog posts. One day I would love to come out to Kansas City and pick your brain sometime about the origins of your business and the hurdles you have needed to cross to get where you are today. Ideally, I would love to become Crossfit certified but the 1k it costs seems a bit staggering. In short, I just want to say thanks for being a beacon of ingenuity in a field of dufuses and keep up the fabulous work.
