So I was of course psyched to see a couple diff. fitness articles in Thursday's Globe. One (http://www.boston.com/lifestyle/weddings/articles/2008/03/27/and_the_bride_said_ughhh/) was about bridal boot camps. They're such a hot item especially now that spring (wedding season) is officially upon us. I knew of a couple places (Sports Club LA and Total Sports Performance) who offered these programs, but didn't know Yolanda's marketed one as well. Anyway, so I'm on the computer tonight finishing a few things for tomorrow and I decide to check out the photos (http://www.boston.com/lifestyle/weddings/gallery/bootcamp/) at all the places that do the bridal programs. Is it me, or is Yolanda's a complete "fluff" workout?!?! All I see is girls doing crunches on Swiss Balls with ridiculously light weights. If you know me and my training philosophy, you know that my biggest pet peeve is when girls/women use weights that are too light. We know challenging weights don't build huge muscles, they build strength and bring out the muscle tone we're all after. Long story short, stick to the challenging workouts I prescribe and avoid the pink dumbbells I always curse:(http://www.wickedlocal.com/watertown/archive/x1998361725).
