Boot Camp Info & FAQ's


We are starting a new series of classes Monday, October 25th. I have had a few people inquiring about what my workouts entail. So here is the lowdown!

Q: How longs does the series last?
A: Each series last 8 weeks. We meet Monday, Wednesday and every other Friday at 5:30 am at Toyon Park in Anaheim Hills. We start at 5:30 sharp, so arrive a tad early to set your stuff up. We finish by 6:15! You can be in the shower by 6:30 or home before you kids wake up!

Q What do I need to bring?
A: At the beginning of each series I will give you a calender of classes. That calendar will dictate what you will bring for each given day. Our current calendar has participants bringing a mat and a set of dumbbells on Mondays. On Wednesdays, they bring the same equipment as well as a stability ball. Friday is a little different. I like everyone to bring either 1 heavy dumbbell or 2 (depends on the program I write for that month), ball and mat. I expect everyone to bring a bottle of water and an open and positive attitude! We do actually have fun! Every now and then I bring my own equipment to use or the infamous Frisbees. You have to attend to know what that means.

Q: How heavy should my dumbbells be?
A: Just ask me! I will help you figure this out! Send me an email hillaryskahan@sbcglobal.net

Q: What about the weather? It is getting colder?!
A: OK... I promise you that you will not be cold! Get out of bed. Put a few layers on but wear something light underneath because It will be exposed. One participant had a tank top on this morning and it was in the low 50's.

Q: What about rain?
A: I will have you give me your cell phone # at the start of the series. If there ever is a morning were it is raining just to hard and I am afraid someone would get hurt, I will text you by 5 AM letting you know the class is canceled. I will pick another day to reschedule it.

Q: I am nervous because I haven't worked out in a long time, should I just go to the gym and get in shape before I attend?
A: No!! I welcome all levels and really do have all levels!! I adapt exercises, offer alternative movements and never have an intimidating environment. I have always hesitated to use the term "boot camp" because that truly is not the setting of our workouts. It is just that "our workouts". I never belittle or make you feel like you can't do something... way not my personality. I listen to what people like and don't like and implement what I know works to achieve those desired results.

Q: What results can I expect?
A: This is the fun part! I have watched women completely transform their bodies into shapely, feminine and lean physiques! You can expect to love the way you feel for getting up and putting yourself first before anything else happens in your day. You can expect to realize you just may be a morning person after all! You can expect to love the variety I bring to every workout! You can expect to fit into clothes you had never thought you really would wear again. You can expect to love working out with another 10-20 women who are very encouraging and great women all around!

So there you have it! Expect only the best because that is what I intend to bring to you every morning!

If you have any further questions please email me!

  1. This is a great way to get started back to working out or up your level of training if needed. Hillary really does provide ideas for all levels. She will challenge you in a gentle manner and empower you to take control of your body and mind!! Plus you get to do it with a ton of other women, definitely something you should check out. Hillary will help you reach your goals, no matter how small or large they are. I have dropped 6-7% body fat and am fitting in jeans I never have in my life.
