Thinking about signing up.. but I’m concerned with being able to keep up. I am pretty overweight and want to get healthy but being introverted and socially awkward I’m nervous about asking for modifications, and generally just putting myself out there and doing this.
In general, how kind and accommodating are the coaches?
I’m not usually one to ask for intel but I’m visiting a location and just want to be prepared. Anyone know what’s on tap for Monday’s MetCon which also happens to be international burpee day?
The side 2 of burpees to walk up/down plank tore some skin off both elbows. Was this just me or anyone else?
Has anyone who has done this had an easy time? I am needing to leave my current location due to mental health issues caused by some of my interactions with trainers. I can likely get a doctors note but just wanted to see if it might be possible without having to disclose anything .
It’s not convenient for me to change locations as my home base as I’m not moving and I am working with a therapist to support the mental health component, but I need to leave this specific environment. As a whole I like Burn a lot and have zero issues at other locations!
This is very sad and so concerning for Burn Boot Camp. I cannot believe they would let someone like this own a franchise. I’ve read that headquarters is stepping in to take over their locations and police are searching cameras at the gyms they own.
Did anyone see this? The article just randomly popped up on fb for me 👀
TW: miscarriage, pregnancy loss
Hey everyone. This is probably a different kind of post than we’re all used to seeing but I recently found out some devastating news about my very early pregnancy.
My husband and I decided to keep the initial happy news of the thousand positive pregnancy tests on a strict need to know basis - so my best friend and her husband, who happens to be a very close friend of my husband, my immediate circle at work, my husbands boss/ best friend, and the Burn trainers. In fact, the burn trainers knew before my husband (by about 24 hours lol)
A week ago at our first prenatal appointment, we found out it’s likely a missed miscarriage and we have been in limbo since then waiting for the next ultrasound to confirm the diagnosis. I’ve been a mess and so has my husband but he processes stuff like this way differently than I do and he’s been so wonderful. I’ve been going about life pretending that I’m still pregnant because honestly I can barely bring myself to even say the words out loud about the likely outcome.
I guess what I’m trying to ask is, for those of you who have been through something similar, when/how did you tell your trainers? I’m considering sending my location an Instagram DM to let them know to remove the “pregnancy” note from my profile because I know if I tell them in person ill absolutely lose it and probably just got home. Thanks for any advice 💙💙
Does anyone have this hoodie they’d be willing to sell me? M, L or XL.
I’m being forced to go to afternoon camps next week since my husband is traveling and I need to know what I’m getting myself into. As a 5:15 AM’er, PM cardio is my nemesis 😂
60 second recovery on Metcon day? What were they thinking??
I usually try not to take things personally - bc it’s my impulse reaction to do so. And I feel like I’m an outsider at my burn - which could be a me problem bc I’m not really there to make friends. But I’m always happy to interact and volunteer when needed.
So yesterday I hit my 50 camp of the year after a month long hiatus (thanks first trimester). They didn’t celebrate me. And then they posted the “crushed my first camp” photo we took at the end for a first timer and I’m the only one cut out of the photo. Is there something I’m missing ? Or am I being targeted?
Replenish just doesn’t do it for me.🤷♀️ I don’t understand the hype. LMNT for the win! 🙌
Anyone else receive a vague “we’re raising our prices” email? Says it’s not until we renew, but zero detail provided. I’m eyeing lifetime fitness (indoor and outdoor pool, childcare, saunas, rock climbing, pickleball, and so on) for the price I’m paying for burn camps.
Hit 250 camps today!! 💙🔥
I started Burn never imagining I’d make it to a milestone like this, and somewhere along the way this place became such a huge part of my life. The trainers, the friendships, the high fives, the ridiculous mod-ups 😂 and getting to celebrate everyone else’s wins right alongside mine have made the journey so much more fun.
I also video a lot of my camps and share my Burn journey/milestones on Instagram. If sharing IG handles is allowed here, I’d love for this to be a thread where anyone who shares their Burn journey can drop theirs too! I love following other Burn members and cheering on their milestones. 💙
Here’s to 250…and apparently continuing to voluntarily get my ass kicked. 😂🔥
Do yall feel like you’re seeing progress at burn? I’ve been at my gym a while and I feel like my progress isn’t that great for how hard the work outs are. I’m definitely significantly STRONGER but not losing weight like I’d like to be. Is there something I’m doing wrong? I don’t eat crazy. I’m a server so i get 15k steps a day just at work alone but I cannot get my BMI down for the life of me.
I’m signing up for next week and saw this for Wednesday’s protocol. Is this new - at least new within the past two years since I started?
I feel like I’ve never seen this name before. I’ve seen back & glutes, upper body, arm day, push & pull, and core & arms.
If this wasn’t obvious, I’m not bothered or anything. Just checking to see if I’m crazy for never noticing this before or if it’s actually new.
