RECESS ELEVATED

Known as “The Intersection of Fitness and Community in Northeast Ohio,” The Come Prepared Fitness Bootcamp brings participants outdoors for a fun and challenging workout three times a week throughout the summer. Most classes are partner- or team-based circuits with the added fun of an end-of-session game.

Don’t let the name intimidate you. There’s no drill sergeants here! As one of CPF's premier offerings, we bring people together for fitness, fun, and community.

Whether you are starting your fitness journey or looking to meet other active professionals in Greater Cleveland, this class is built for all levels. Think of it as recess for adults.

All Fitness Levels Welcome! Please consult your healthcare provider before participating in any exercise program.

Why Should You Attend?

Community Builder

It’s all about bringing people together to reach similar goals. Everyone attending will learn to work together, meet like-minded individuals, and build confidence throughout the workout.

Motivational

It’s true. You will feel like you want to quit halfway through, but you will receive encouragement from me and your fellow campers. We are in this together for the hour.

Workout Variety

Not every workout is the same! One week you will perform an all-around workout; the next could be solely strength training. I will give you a heads-up on the format. It’s up to you to prepare for it!

Unique Offering

Similar offerings are only held indoors. Yes, these businesses are more established and have set workouts. However, this is one of a few, if not only, workouts held outside in Northeast Ohio.

Trainer Experience

I have held these classes for five years and performed similar workouts at conferences and seminars. I know how tough it is to power through, and I hope I can share my experiences with you.

Mental Health

We have been through a lot in the past few years. Between COVID and conflict, it seems like life has separated us further. This offering brings people face-to-face and can have a lasting impact beyond the hour we have together.

Weather Policy

Running an outdoor class in Northeast Ohio means dealing with unpredictable weather!

Classes proceed as scheduled in light rain. Classes will be canceled if lightning is detected within 10 miles of Kings Gym, or if the National Weather Service forecasts lightning/severe thunderstorms with >50% probability during the class hour.

Cancellation decisions are made and posted on both social media and Trainerize no later than 60 minutes before class start. If a class is canceled, it will either be rescheduled or credited as an additional session at the end of the season.

“Christian's open-air bootcamp gave me a great workout AND some great ideas for new exercises to freshen up my regular at-home fitness routine. He strikes a great balance between motivating positivity and low-key friendliness. Strongly recommend!”

FAQs

  • A “Fitness Boot Camp” can consist of exercises ranging from high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to strength training. They can be formatted in different ways, including timed stations, AMRAP (as many repetitions/rounds as possible), or Tabata.

    Some boot camps can be run military-style, but they have centered more towards high energy with a push from trainers to help their clients reach levels they previously could not think they could attain.

    My Boot Camps bring the community aspect to each workout while performing less-intense exercises than CrossFit. All fitness levels are welcome and modifications can be made depending on your experience or medical condition.

    All Boot Camps will be set to music, depending on the theme of the day. They will each consist of a warmup period, the main workout, a fitness-based game, and a cooldown period. Classes last from 45 minutes to one hour.

  • All ages and fitness levels can attend. You will have to sign a waiver before your first class.

  • A unique aspect of my Boot Camps is that most, if not all, of my classes are performed outside. I began offering this service during the COVID-19 Pandemic as a way people can work out together without the fear of catching the disease. I also keep you on your feet, as no two workouts are the same each week.

    Compared to other offerings in the area, my classes are supplemental to your weekly fitness routine whether you perform a strength training routine or frequent some of the national brands. This is just another way of building community through fitness.

  • It depends on the workout. Some days would include options to go easy or be pushed for a bigger challenge. However, most workouts will be less difficult than what would be considered a “CrossFit-style” routine. Modifications to each exercise can be made based off experience.

  • Most workouts will include a combination of dumbbells, kettlebells, boxes for agility and jumps, FitFighter Steelhoses, slam balls, resistance bands, and TRX bands. We are always finding new ways to enhance your workout experience with new exercises and equipment.

  • I recommend bringing a fully-filled water bottle, a towel, an exercise mat for stretching and ground work, and your energy!

  • Up to 20 with some classes maxing out at 30.
