  
Voted Best Fitness Program!
Thank you for your support! This award means a lot to us;-)
THANK YOU, Brett et al! You, Lindsay, Danielle and Lori (Baucchus, too) totally rock! I signed up for your Boot Camp because I really needed to have my rear kicked into shape. After 4 weeks of your camp (5 days/week) I not only dropped 10 pounds, inches and body fat but I met my even bigger objective. I had failed the physical agility portion of the entrance exam to the SC County Sheriff’s department 3 times because I was just too slow. The day after camp ended was the moment of truth and I was absolutely speechless when the deputy who’d seen me fail numerous times before came up to me before the final event. He told me that I’d already scored enough points to pass and that at that point I just had to complete the final run and I’d have succeeded. I’d never been there before and was seriously doubting that I’d ever hear those words! I know I wouldn’t have made it without you all. Not to mention all the great and supportive women I met during our camp. 7 of us “newbies” at your last camp are all back in varying degrees of scheduling (3 days/week vs. 5) for this 7 week super camp! Keep pushing little ol’ me and I’ll put all the 20-something year old men to shame when we hit the academy in February! ;-) Can’t wait!
Thanks again!

My name is Mahi. I am currently attending Brett Riesenhuber's "San Jose Boot Camp". I cant say enough about this wonderful camp and great trainer.
I had been wanting to improve my health since the beginning of the new year. But i hardly had the motivation to go to the big gym in my apartment. I started searching for a personal trainer and was somehow convinced to join this bootcamp just by visiting Brett's website.
Now I am into the third week and i am feeling so great. When i joined the camp i was having a lot of fears about the trainer. I imagined that he was going to shout in my face and make me do all the exercises. But Brett was exactly the opposite of what i had expected.
He is very professional, very energetic, very respectful, very inspiring and encouraging. He is a delight to work with. He is absolutely devoted to his job and loves his job. He cares about every single person who attends the camp. I never wanted to miss even 1 day of this camp. Its a lot of fun and i never realize when the session started and ended. It is so fast and full of fun.

Just my 2 cents worth and whole hearted vote of confidence for
Brett and the San Jose Adventure Bootcamp.(Willow Glen, Cambrian & Campbell area)
I hate exercising but after almost a year with the program I can honestly say I've become somewhat addicted!
It's a great fun program and I only occasionally mind getting up st 5:00a.m. to make the 5:30 exercise adventure!

I'd like to put in my 2cents about "Adventure Boot Camp for Women" and Brett A. Reisenhuber, who runs Prime Physique and the camp. I LOVE THIS PROGRAM. It is totally awesome. I started going in October 2007 and seem to re-enroll for every new camp.

service there is.

I love being outdoors and in a group setting with women. I also enjoyed the obstical course with jump ropes, side steps, pull ups, etc. It was hard work but motivating to be in a group.
I didn't think it was going to be this fun and I would feel this good about myself even before the day has really begun!

Well this is my third camp, so I think that says how I feel about being there! According to my HRM (Heart Rate Monitor) I burned 700+ calories today!
Boot Camp is great! Its gotten me back into a more consistent workout routine, I was able to keep up the getting up early even during the off weeks.

My back is feeling better. My family has noticed my body shape after the first week. My husband asked me how long I have been exercising in Boot Camp. I have more energy. The class exercises are organized perfectly. I have taken boot Camp classes before, but I really enjoy you as the instructor and your program! Your Pre Boot Camp nutrition class was perfect also. I enjoy this class very much...Brett you are worth every penny;-)

I like the group dynamic, being able to work at your level, and I appreciate the support from the other participants and the instructor. There is never a dull moment, and each day was completely different from the prior days. When I work out by myself at the gym, I find ways to put it off until later in the day because it is really boring and takes great discipline. Now I know others are there waiting, and besides, who wants to do extra push ups (for being late)!
The instructor (Brett) is excellent and very helpful. I especially like the fact that all the exercises are based in other areas of physical fitness like Yoga, cardio, and resistance. My biggest concern about attending Boot Camp was that I wouldn't be able to keep up and complete anything. Surprisingly, I have done alright.
Great Job Brett! Thanks for offering such an awesome program! I particularly like the access to the web site to log in food and exercise. This is a fabulous tool.
On a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the best) how would you rate San Jose Adventure Boot Camp?
A 10+++++ DA BOMB BABY I love it! I felt very happy and up beat and full of energy! Before Boot Camp I was tired and in a pissy Mood! I love the way Brett motivates us and is not a hard ass but does push us for the level we are at. I am overweight but pushing myself to the fullest. On my last day I want to see a result. I love Boot Camp...nothing bad about it;-)

This fitness and weight loss program is honestly the best gift I have given myself. It is motivating, stimulating and challenging…everything my old routine lacked. It jump starts my day and I have met a wonderful group of women from all walks of life. I receive dedicated personal instruction – I couldn’t ask for anything more in an exercise program. You need to do this for yourself.

I have somewhat of an unusual testimonial I thought I'd share with you. On Wednesday after our hike I had a dentist appointment to have a crown work up on a tooth that broke. My dentist is here in Yorba Linda, and her name is Caroline Dang.....she's a great dentist. She was drilling away on my tooth when the anesthetic started to wear off.....I motioned her, and she stopped and gave me another shot and continued. She still wasn't finished when I felt the pain coming back again.....she had to stop again and give me yet a third shot to numb me so she could finish. She couldn't understand why the medication was going through me so quickly because I had to have a crown once before and that didn't happen. I mentioned that I had just gone on a "climb up Mt. Everest" that morning and she said that was it.....my metabolism was running so high that the medication was running through my body faster than normal. She was impressed.....so was I!
I really enjoyed the hike....even though I am so badly out of shape, I just hung in there and made it to the top.....like everyone else.....and boy was that view gorgeous! I appreciate that you lag behind for us slower ones.....you make us feel so good about ourselves.....I can't wait for next Wednesday's hike!
Thank you,

I was completely bored with exercising. I have exercised my whole life and needed a change. It's great to be excited about my workout program again. I'm beginning by 3rd camp soon!

The Adventure Boot Camp is simply the best! I particularly like the variety of activities and the sense of fun that's built into the program. I really felt like I was getting the maximum benefit out of the program. I highly recommend the program to anyone wanting to improve their fitness and overall health.

I have to admit I was a little skeptical about something entitled "Boot Camp". I envisioned a lot of yelling and not the most nurturing environment. However, since day one of camp, I have been nothing but thrilled to wake up and hang out with my newly acquainted friends. After two camps, I have learned so many new exercises that have stirred muscles I didn't know I had! The biggest change for me has occurred in my arms, hips and abs. I feel so much leaner and firm. I'm into a size 4 and my energy level has seen a significant boost. So, whether it's interval training with weights or yoga and Pilates, I look forward to every morning's new adventure. Lisa M.
Wow! What can I say about Boot Camp. I can say so much I don't know where to begin. I am 32 years old and have tried many different things to try and get myself into shape. Including working out with a personal trainer that cost me ALOT of money and just ended up hurting my knees. When I thought about doing Boot Camp the idea of getting up to workout at 5:30 in the morning freaked me out a little. Well, I am currently involved in my second camp. After the first 4 week camp I noticed a difference in my body composition that I never had prior. I have never really had a weight problem, yet was never really toned either. My legs and butt were on the flabby side, and as I get older I noticed it getting worse. Right now I feel so good in my clothes - I can't believe it. People have noticed a change in my body. My hips had started getting little fat pockets on the sides and those are GONE! I am amazed at the results of the training that John gives us. Getting up and working out at 5:30 has been easy to adjust to and believe it or not, I have lots of energy throughout the day. I Love Camp and John Ellis is one of the nicest guys I know. He is not your typical arrogant personal trainer type guy. He is awesome. He is so knowledgeable and so helpful in the morning to everyone in the camp. I can't say enough good things about him. I I love camp and I love what is happening to my body as a result of it!
Thank you for the dedication to all of us! You are awesome!

In February of this year, I started my first boot camp with John Ellis, I must say I was a bit unsure of my strength and abilities. Could I even keep up? Boot Camp? I've been there before! In 1988 I left the United States Marine Corps after serving eight years and being in the best shape of my life. Now, I'm a 47 year old female, 50 pounds overweight and in the worst shape of my life. I allowed allowed the corporate demons to suck up my soul for the past 12 years. I have tried every diet in the book from Weight Watchers, Fit For Life, drugs and personal training - unsuccessfully. Now it was time for a rebirth and I knew boot camp would do it. But could I handle it 22 years later when waking up at 0430 is a challenge in itself . Well John Ellis makes sure everyone at camp finds their personal success as he lifts our spirits and demands that each of us embrace our personal strength to the best of our abilities. As this was accomplished so was a gradual physical, emotionaltal transformation. Now while attending my third boot camp, I am stronger, healthier, with noticeable increased energy levels and have dropped one dress size. I have achieved my personal goals and much more . My weight, I no longer worry about because I feel too good to be preoccupied my with negative thoughts. This is truly a life changing experience and if your ready for the commitment, join the journey, come aboard. If not, stay home and sleep your way through life! I did it for 12 years. :-) !!

I have been away from a fitness lifestyle for years. I replaced fitness for watching my bottom lines grow. I saw John's ad and was compelled to act for two reasons: #1: it didn't sound like a sissy camp. #2: I had no time management rationalizations to use against exercising locally from 5:30-6:30am, a time slot previously reserved for snoring. What is the result? I have more energy and I am proud of myself for getting something started. I did not choose this program because of John's extensive credentials. Now that I have done this for two weeks, I know that it is his expertise at working different muscle groups every day & incorporating different exercises that has made the workout difficult, and yet possible for me. The variety keeps it fresh and makes it a total body workout. I would highly recommend this program for anyone seeking to rekindle their love for a fitness lifestyle. Melinda, Coto de Caza
I arrived at boot camp overweight and out of shape - a true couch potato who loved food and hated exercise. But, I knew it was time for a change and John's boot camp sounded like just the cure. What I was really looking for was something to jump start me into better fitness and eating habits. What could be better than four weeks of intense fitness training with other women under the guidance of an experienced trainer? And the classes were great! The variety of activities and pace of the class made the hour fly by each day. Don't get me wrong, it was a lot of hard work. John pushed me harder than I would ever push myself working out alone. But he also allowed for the individual abilities of each participant. It didn't matter that I was the slowest or the weakest. What matters is that I worked at and improved at everything. And the results are impressive. During the four weeks, I lost eight pounds. I lost two inches each around my chest, waist, and hips. I also lost over one inch on each arm and leg. I improved my one mile run time by 10%. Plus, I have more energy than ever. Best of all, it has given me just the boost I was looking to attain. I'm now eating better, sleeping better, and exercising regularly. I have the hope and belief that I can continue my new fitness habits and my journey to a leaner and healthier me. And I'm looking forward to returning to future boot camps to challenge myself again.
Thanks!
