Introduction Barry's Bootcamp comes with three DVDs, one transformer, two power handles, two resistance bands and an instruction manual. You can do up to nine different workouts, all being up to nine times as effective as a typical workout. Having been referred to as a cross between goofball and the Energizer rabbit, Barry nevertheless has struck gold with this particular exercise routine. Does this workout really have the ability to do all that, or is it just one more hyped internet fitness product? That is what this review will attempt to answer. We recommend you also read our other Exercise Reviews.
Reasons To Try Barry's BootcampThe good thing about Barry’s Bootcamp is that it appears to be very easy to adhere to relative to the intensity of the workout. Most high intensity DVD workouts often end up being duds because they are way too intense for most people to adhere to regularly. However, Barry’s Bootcamp appears to be different. There is no question that it is an intense workout, but it seems to have a high adherence rate. Many people that have purchased the workout continue to do it for months afterwards despite having lost interest in technically easier workouts a lot quicker. While the exact reason for this is unknown at this point, it is definitely a huge point in the favour of this workout.
For people that actually commit to the workout and continue doing it throughout the recommended timeframe, the results are absolutely amazing. What is even better is that a large majority of the people that do this workout are able to stick to it throughout. If you compare the anecdotal evidence behind this fitness workout to just about any other one available online, you’ll discover this to be true. Barry’s Bootcamp has one of the highest success rates around. This is even more impressive when you consider that for most people, this is not a first purchase. Most of the people on Barry’s Bootcamp have purchased other products and ended up disappointed at least once before they come to it. That makes these particular statistics extremely impressive.
The high intensity nature of Barry’s Bootcamp allows you to be a lot quicker and more efficient with your workouts. Rather than doing exercises for two or three minutes and then resting for the same amount of time, you are doing an exercise for one minute and then resting for thirty seconds. This is how high intensity interval training is supposed to work. The programs that do it well have great results. Barry’s Bootcamp does it about as well as any other program of its kind that we have reviewed.
Barry's Bootcamp Not For EveryoneThere is an age restriction for Barry’s Bootcamp. This is one that would likely be followed anyway even without the specific restriction. This is because of the high-intensity nature of the workout and the fact that it requires muscle flexibility that older people do not have. In any case, the fact of the matter is that Barry’s Bootcamp is a restricted workout regime. Senior citizens are excluded from this workout. This means that it is not universally accessible. That is something that brings it down a little bit in our estimation.
The Bottom LineThe bottom line with Barry’s Bootcamp is that for some people, it is one of the best options out there. If you have the ability to adhere to this unique brand of exercise while at the same time being of an age group that is appropriate for this exercise, you will find that it is one of the best options out there. For everyone else, another choice needs to be found.

, on 24-06-2010 09:38 I started the workout 3 months ago, not to lose weight, but to get in shape and tone up my muscles. I have always been a trim person, but after having 2 kids and not staying on top of exercise, I needed to tone up! I have stuck consistently with the program for 3 months, alternating the red and blue 21 minute fat blasters daily with one mission specialist daily. I eat healthy and in the process of doing all this, I have achieved my goal. I am in the BEST shape of my life! Every muscle is toned and sculpted.... I have recieved so many compliments about my fitness. I even lost 7 pounds unintentionally! Barry can be a bit on the obnoxious side, but if you are focusing on the exercise, you can tune him out. I truly love his enthuiasm towards the workout. I am doing all the advanced mission specialists and have graduated to the black power band! Thank you Barry!!!! |
2. Sooooo Annoying!!!!!!!!! Written by Sara, on 14-06-2010 10:28 The workout itself is great but Barry is so intensly irritating!! I have to mute the dvd and turn on some music so I can just watch Cindy and follow her lead. Did he not consider that someone who does this workout 4-5 times a week would tire of his stupid running commentary or creepy perving out on every woman in the studio? Sheeeesh what an angry little troll!  |
3. Written by danielle vit, on 06-04-2010 20:03 I got the kit at TJ Maxx for 15 dollars.. And wow. This is the best workout I've ever done. While I'm a little on the heavy side, I am extremely toned and very muscular... There's a girl in the background who shows you beginner moves but I found the full intensity workouts to be simple enough, as well as effective. I feel great after my workout, and I finish my exercise regime with a two mile run on thebeach  |
