Bootcamp Fitness KC

I originally signed up for Boot Camp Fitness in 2001 for some exercise guidance and diversity. I had trained the same way using weights for 30 years and not until I found this program, did I make consistent, substantial and beneficial improvements in my overall fitness. The program is wonderful, allows me to keep an elevated heart rate, work at my own pace and challenge myself every single day to get better. Everyday, we do something different. I can’t believe I have been doing this for almost 9 years and I still love the workouts.

Mike Rutherford (a.k.a. Coach Rut) runs bootcampfitnesskc located in Prairie Village, KS. Coach Rut and his instructors are consummate professionals who have created custom programs that effectively combine weight training, cardiovascular, nutrition and humor. They constantly adjust and tailor the workout routines to meet my fitness needs. I highly recommend bootcampfitnesskc’s services for fitness and physical training regardless of age or level of fitness.

As expected the Advanced Template is super helpful, thanks for putting it together.  We met briefly around Christmas when my wife and I were in town from Orange County,CA and dropped in your gym.  We had a great workout and I now have a reason to look forward to visiting my mother in law.  I really appreciate all the information you put out, it has definitely made me a better and smarter coach.

I feel 150% percent better than I did at the start of your program last May. I realize that I did the work, but I am really thankful to you and your program.

Sir, I am a police officer in southern California and I love your program, its the best thing that I’ve ever come across.

During the last 7 months at Bootcamp Fitness/CrossFit Kansas City I have lost 45 lbs. and achieved a level of strength and endurance that I thought I would never see again.

Hi Coach,

Thank you for the suggestions. I took your advice and added a longer CF WOD on Tuesdays, still taking Thursday, Saturday and Sunday for active rest. I have also sharpened my focus on cleaner Paleo eating. With these adjustments, things have been going well. The biggest surprise came this week. I am taking a week to do CF before I leave for a two week cycling vacation and hit a PR on the 5k, which I rowed. My time was more than 1 minute better than my previous PR set when I was doing only CF. This PR comes after 6 weeks of MEBB programming. Needless to say, I will be back on MEBB plus CF on Tuesdays when I get back from vacation.

I wanted to let you know how sincerely I have enjoyed your class. I have
learned many things, the most important is that good health creates a good
life.

This is longest I have ever stayed with a workout regime and I credit
you for that. You have made it fun and challenging. The end result will
provide me with a better quality of life. I have never made that statement
to anyone in the medical community.

You have the ability to help improve peoples lives, that is truly a gift.

Thank you so much. I also wanted to let you know that I am on your site quite often and have used your MEBB program to much success. It has really helped me increase my strength and fitness which is very important in my job as a firefighter.

You have the absolute best approach to exercise fitness I’ve every come across. My strength gains are phenomenal. We are talking on the order of 20-30lbs every time I workout. I take the rest days pretty strictly except for some light sled pushing. Otherwise, I do hip-bridge, back xtensions, or glute-ham exercises to finish off the workouts. The rotation is great for recovery and gains.
Your approach is a revelation. I’m putting you in the running for sainthood along with Burg, and Wolf.

If you are ever in So. Cal. mi casa, su casa.

Your Boot Camp has been an awesome experience, and I see no reason to ever stop exercising with you. There is absolutely no downside to the regimen: Since I am old, I am awake and up early anyway; the socialization is wonderful; and the work is torture. What else is there? Incidentally, I am beginning to notice differences in my waist line and the way clothing fits now.

I look forward to every day and every new sadistic routine you throw at us!

I definitely am living stronger!
