Q: What inspired you to start the OutFIT classes?
A: Get some upper body strength and get in better running condition.

Q: With so many other choices, why did you choose OutFIT as your exercise partner?
A: We saw Danielle and a bunch of people running around and having fun. We thought, this looks like a fun group and we joined. We don’t like indoor gyms, so we were happy that we found Danielle and OutFIT.

Q: What has kept you coming back to OutFIT?
A: Staying in shape, feeling good. Having instructors like David, who is a true inspiration to get you moving, to go the extra step, who knows how to make you dance with those damn weights!

Q: How has OutFIT changed your life?
A: We are in much better physical condition for sure.

Q: What advice would you give someone that is thinking about starting OutFIT
A: If you want to get into good condition, be around fun people and exercise out in the open,
this is the place!

Q: What inspired you to start the OutFIT classes?
A: My friend is an instructor. Prior to joining, I would listen to him talk about the program. It sounded like fun and a great way to get in shape, so I joined.

Q: With so many other choices, why did you choose OutFIT as your exercise partner?
A: To be honest, prior to joining OutFIT I wasn’t aware of the extent of the boot camp craze. Since joining, I’ve noticed a lot more groups in the areas where we work out. I’m biased toward OutFIT at this point – I can’t imagine going to another group.

Q: What has kept you coming back to OutFIT?
A: I’ve lost weight. I feel great. I’m in good shape and can maintain it. I would never work out at the intensity level we do on my own. Working out with a group is a lot of fun and very motivating. I like to work out in the morning. I LOVE the instructors. Without them, this wouldn’t be nearly as fun or challenging and I probably wouldn’t be as compelled to keep coming back.

Q: How has OutFIT changed your life?
A: I’m in better shape than I’ve ever been in my life. I feel great. I’ve met some really great people and learned some really great areas of San Francisco that I would never have found on my own.

Q: What advice would you give someone that is thinking about starting OutFIT?
A: Do it NOW! The hardest part is getting out of bed – once you’re there it’s fun. Even in the rain. The burn goes away!
