I cannot recommend Baby Boot Camp highly enough. After having 2 babies in less than 3 years, I was SO out of shape. I saw an advertisement for Baby Boot Camp on a car shortly after my second son was born and found out online that the first class was free. When he was 12 weeks old, I tried it out and was instantly hooked. Even though my baby was the youngest in the class (and I was the least in shape), everyone was welcoming and encouraging. The classes are small so you get plenty of individual attention from the instructor and she is really great about modifying exercises for your personal ability level. My baby and I have been going to class for a month now and I have seen dramatic results. I've lost nearly 15 pounds in a month and see a huge difference in my strength and energy level. It is so great to work out with other mommies; no one judges if you have to take a time-out for feeding or diaper emergencies. Also, it is a great way to make new friends and, even though the workout is very challenging, the comraderie makes it a lot of fun. I have a 45 minute drive to get to Austin and still make it to boot camp at least 3, if not 4, days a week -- it is worth the drive!
