Programs & Training Options

The path back to your inner athlete typically begins with Essential Training or Private Sessions.

During these sessions you will be exposed to a variety of exercise movements at light to moderate intensity levels while you become familiar with our methods. We are training movements, not muscles. We are primarily looking for competency with these primal movement patterns. We do this without motors or automation.

When you enroll in our Essential Training program you will participate in one of our group training classes throughout the week AND will attend a a minimum of two Essential sessions. These essential sessions will magnify the focus on our training methods and lifestyle recommendations. These are a mandatory part of the essential training phase.

Please contact Jess Reinhardt to schedule your four point assessment.

Boot Camp Fitness

Our signature class offers a structure based upon simple, yet effective fundamental movement patterns executed at high intensity. These workouts deliver time-tested measurable health and fitness improvements. This technology delivers the most effective broad-based fitness results in the most efficient manner possible. Each training session will have a different objective and the time exposure will also be different. These movements will challenge you, but the format is non-competitive (unless you choose to make it so). You can stay with these offerings, or once you have developed a certain level of competency you can petition to move to the Advanced CrossFit group. The advanced group will pick up where your Boot Camp training left off, but the big difference here will be in the intensity level. Each workout will have a quantifiable result. These are competitive events. You will be training with more focus and more intensity. The movements pool will expand and the loads will be higher.

Will it be hard? Yes, but not impossible.
Can I keep up? Yes. Everyone else here started out just like you.

After one month, your transformation will be initiated. By month number two, your friends will want to know your secret. You do not need to be in shape to begin the program, BUT if you are overweight, or have questions about your health or fitness you should contact us prior to enrolling.

Boot Camp Group Classes meet Monday – Friday at: 5:00am, 6:00am, 7:00am, 8:30am and 5:45pm.

The Max Effort Black Box (MEBB)

This class is based on the most popular strength template to improve CrossFit and athletic performance. Created in 2003 by Coach Michael Rutherford the MEBB is a program of dedicated strength training followed by a brief metabolic conditioning (Metcon) session.

If you lack the ability to perform Metcon training with the prescribed weights or wish to train with a strength bias and the flavor of a Division I college athlete, this is your program.

This particular expression is a three day per week example. Each training day includes a strength focus followed with a metcon and posterior chain exercise.

The MEBB Class meets on Tuesday/Thursday at 6:45 pm and Saturdays at 9:30 am.

Testimonials

I wanted to take some time to thank you for your website and your DVD’s and all you do to educate and help the fitness community.

I’ve been training high school and college athletes, (both male and female) for over 15 years, some who are now in the professional ranks, along with adults who don’t consider themselves athletes. I’ve experienced just about all the training methods and fads over the years and found most ok for somethings but usually always missing a certain component.

However, combining the Max Effort Black Box with a Crossfit routine it appears all the bases are covered. I have seen tremendous gains in the people I have been training over the last year or so and credit a lot if not most of what I am seeing to your concepts and teachings.

I could go on and on but again, I would like to thank you for your site and all you do to help the fitness community.

Mike McCauley, Lancaster, PA

I can not overstate how happy I am to have joined your program . I consider it literally one of the 3-4 best decisions of my life (if only I had made it sooner!). I can count on one finger the number of activities for which I will happily rise at 4 a.m. almost every day, and that is because the one hour I spend at Bootcamp Fitness / CrossFit Kansas City is easily the most productive of the day. In roughly six months, the benefits I have seen are countless and even transcend the significant fitness gains. Thanks for being the driving force of this enterprise you are making a lot of people’s lives a lot better.

Scott Worthington / Fairway Kansas

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….

Krystyn Blackmon Ross, Boston, MA

Thank you for your hard work and for sharing your considerable experience in putting together the Dumbbell Moves DVDs. I recently purchased all three volumes, and they are AWESOME!

Thank you so much for making this material available.

Scott Limpert

I just wanted to drop you a line and let you know how impressed I am with my body’s response to your workouts. I mowed the yard last after I rowed and I was pushing the mower differently, using the muscles at the bottom of my butt that I am sure that I should have been using all of these years.

Kevin T / Overland Park, Kansas

Well, here I am at the FBI Academy. I couldn’t have made it here without your help and support.

Marcie Soligo / Quantico, VA

I just completed week 10 of MEBB. Since my first day of MEBB on October 21st, I have PR’d my Bench Press (226.5#), my Power Snatch (144#), and my today I PR’d my shoulder press at 149.5#. I have also improved my squat to 281.5#. Only 13.5# away from my all time PR. Thank you for the MEBB program. It’s amazing.

You have the absolute best approach to exercise fitness I’ve every come across. My strength gains are phenomenal. We are talking on the order of 20-30lbs every time I workout. I take the rest days pretty strictly except for some light sled pushing. Otherwise, I do hip-bridge, back xtensions, or glute-ham exercises to finish off the workouts. The rotation is great for recovery and gains.
Your approach is a revelation. I’m putting you in the running for sainthood along with Burg, and Wolf.

If you are ever in So. Cal. mi casa, su casa.

Ed Guzman, Southern California, USA

I feel 150% percent better than I did at the start of your program last May. I realize that I did the work, but I am really thankful to you and your program.

Amy Fiss / Leawood Kansas

Mike Rutherford’s DB DVD got here today. It has 40 exercises demonstrated and explained. Lots of information, good illustrations of the movements, but very valuable for the new ideas for ways to use the equipment we all have lots of. I highly recommend it for everybody trying to keep a fresh approach to training their clients.
