Fitness Challenge: Day 34
Private Benjamin was one of my favorite movies; I love Goldie Hawn, her name was Judy, and she was whipped into shape at boot camp.
You can live out your Marine Corps fantasies in midtown Manhattan and get into amazing shape at Warrior Fitness Boot Camp.
A loft has been converted into an adult playground, or torture chamber, depending on your point of view. An obstacle course has progressively higher walls to scramble over, a rope to climb and a short tunnel that you crawl through on your belly.
Surrounding this is a track where you run, lunge or side shuffle, sometimes carrying weights. An actual Marine, in camo, exhorts you to run faster, hold your arms higher.
But all in the name of fun. These are nice guy Marines (we are, of course, paying for the privilege to be motivated by them).
And there is great camaraderie in the group. I am introduced to the 'squad' and every grunts their name.
The hour-long workout kicks my butt.
