I completed my Six Week Bootcamp Challenge, and am writing the required, "honest" review included…read morein the terms when I signed up for my "Free" 6 week challenge which cost me, all told $441. But I get ahead of myself. I really want to give an honest, useful review, and I will write from good to bad. Food Program: 5 The diet and exercise program is effective, without being overly complex. In 6 weeks, following their required minimum attendance at 3 bootcamps (I did 4 for two weeks), and mostly following the food plan religiously, I lost 20.1 lbs and reduced my body fat % by 4.4. The results are there to be had, if you commit and don't get injured. They tell you up front that the weight-loss results are 80% from following the food plan rigorously, and I have to agree. The horror of my normal diet was revealed to me as I converted to a low-carb, high protein "clean" diet. I was not hungry ever, though changing habits to cook within the program limitations required some extra time. Nothing worthwhile is easy I guess. Exercise Program: 5 The workouts were excellent. High intensity circuit training, with variety every day. I was amazed to find out how thoroughly my body could be worked in no more than 45 minutes! Different trainers bring their individual styles, and after a couple weeks I knew which classes to attend for best satisfaction. (If you're new to exercise, have laid off for too long as I had, or generally don't know your kettle bells from your lats, please pay attention to the "Personalization" section, later.) Staff: 4.5 Generally decent. The front office staff involved in getting me started all knew their specific roles. Though the "on-boarding" seemed a little rushed, they do have a well-oiled system for getting more and more people into their system. As for trainers -- They all know what they're doing, and led fun classes. I found 3 regular instructors to be especially knowledgeable and willing to work above and beyond the minimums: Hat-tip to Alex Mariani, Andrew McWilliams and Justin Pleznik, who all contributed directly to helping me avoid injury!! Each person will find their own favorites, and these were mine. Personalization: 2 I entered the program as a sedentary 52 year old with back issues. I explicitly noted to everyone I talked to that my priority was not injuring my back. During the induction process, everyone assured me that there would be plenty of custom tailoring to my needs, but I found myself to be largely on my own in making sure I didn't push too hard, too fast. Know thyself! As I noted above, if you're new to exercise, circuit training, groups, free weights, etc., you will mostly be expected to figure everything out on your own, or by watching the regulars. Take things at a pace YOU can tolerate. Don't push too hard and injure yourself on day 1. No one will be telling you not to, aside from the general guidance to work to your own limits. For the price, I expected a little more personal attention to technique, form, etc. I got if from the three mentioned above, but I think those first couple classes are the balance point between a successful course, and a potential horrifying crash into injury. YMMV. Cost/Advertising: 1 I have two issues: First, false/misleading advertising, and second hidden prices/evasive answers. === False/Misleading Advertising === I responded to a Facebook Ad boldly touting a "FREE" 6-week challenge bootcamp. Within moments of entering my initial orientation, I was sat down to discuss cost. It's free, right? Well, "The Challenge is free... we normally sell that for $799, but we're giving it away to you! All you have to do is pay $294, for 6 weeks. After 6 weeks your "Membership will automatically continue at $49 per week. You can cancel any time after your six weeks, but you have to give us 30 Days cancellation notice..." tl;dr - this FREE challenge will cost you $294, which is -- wait for it -- $49 a week!! The same price you will continue having automatically debited after your six weeks ends. And if you're not careful, you're also locking yourself into 4 weeks BEYOND the 6 weeks. If their phrasing leads you to believe you can't give notice of quitting until after your six weeks is complete, you will be locked into 4 more payments of $49. To successfully leave this Six Week program you have to give 30 days notice before you even begin your THIRD WEEK! When I wanted to continue, but not at the VIP level, I asked for alternative price packages. They have nothing in writing to give me. I asked, what would the price be for the right to attend 3 classes a week, instead of unlimited. I was told $67 a week. That is insane, if my unlimited package is $49. Stop the misleading ads. Just tell people it is $49 a week, and no alternatives exist. The only reason I'm not continuing the program is because of this cost/evasiveness issue. Larissa (GM) was super, processing my cancellation quickly, with no hassles. Thank you

I can't say enough good things about her and the things she's doing at Soul. She's a top notch trainer and is just an all around great person. Her workouts are always challenging and tuned to your needs. In addition to personal training, I've done a few of the other classes. On Tuesday's Kellen M does a Primal Movement class. If you've never done Primal (MovNat, etc.) then you don't know what you're missing. This is truly "functional" fitness at it's best. On Fridays Marina H does a strech class that is phenomenal. If I didn't already have another contract gym membership, I'd just stick with Soul. Their overall schedule is well-rounded with strengh, yoga, kettlebells and other movements. They also puts on a bunch of community activities like Maker's Markets and fun events like roller skating (if only I could). Do your body a favor and give them a try!

I really have appreciated Eileen's guidance and how much emphasis there is on movement, function, and form. The workouts always have modifications, and I appreciate that everyone moves at their own pace (and that moving quickly is rarely the emphasis). Since I've been coming, I feel (and look!) stronger, more comfortable using gym equipment, and increased awareness of how my body moves. I like that there is a wide variety of offerings throughout the day, a diversity of ages and backgrounds in clientele, and a little bit of something for everyone. There are events, like an annual Brewer's tailgate, in addition to hosting different practitioners of fitness/nutrition/wellness. I think that Eileen's has got something going on that more gyms could look to and that Soul Collective is worth giving a try if you're looking for a gym that values movement and holistic health!
