BCY Stories

My journey with BCY began in August of 2017. Had been reasonably active and disciplined (fauji brat) all through my growing up years but somewhere down the lane got busy and immersed in the corporate world(though it's not an excuse to not be healthy and FIT). When I joined Bcy I was mentally weak and it showed physically. And this one lovely August morning I chanced upon some girls(in sunshine yellow jerseys) jumping around in the PARK PLACE grounds….and the adventure began… What an adventure it has been, from the extremly inspiring and unforgiving coaches(50 burpees MEANS 50 BURPEEEEES), 😁😁 to the push challenges challenges and the squats that I thought was a piece of cake 🤣🤣.but dare I say am stronger ,fitter, happier(made some lifelong friends). The energy at the BCY community is infectious for people of all ages and fitness levels.At the end of every session I feel lighter,emotionally and physically stronger and more grounded (pun intended). Infact my running journey began with BCY(special mention Nitin) ..from huffing and puffing , whining even for a 50 meters warm up run(even though I was a 100 meters sprinter in school) I managed to train and run two marathons , intending to run many more😊.The training for which saw us with motivation to run upto Chaipoint 🙂 For bun maska. Have completed 2 years with BCY ...intend completing 20 and hoping to get old(read older) with this passionate and innovative group. Would like to thank Deepika, Nitin, Jatin and the entire BCY team for showing faith in me and my peers in this journey...WE GOT THIS!!

My life which was more of routine, health issues, overweight and no healthy food, changed when I was introduced by a friend to BCY. That was indeed my life changing milestone. A Milestone where living a healthy fit life was a priority not only to me but had similar effect on my family ,made me agile and confident, gave the much needed passion to do what I never believed in, be it fitness challenge, professional front or personal challenges . I can confidently say I am proud fit mother, wife, marathoner, confident teacher and its all because of BCY. My day has to start with BCY, I have lost 9 kgs and raring to take up the challenging well planned workouts .
This is ME

I have always worked out, 20 years 3 times a week. I have done yoga, zumba, aerobics, kickboxing, distance running, I have done classes, worked with a personal trainer, trained on my own in the gym. I distinctly remember a time when I would sign up for a trial class each time a new gym opened - Gold's gym, Fitness First, Reebok Crossfit. It is a long embarrassing list. I would quit after 6 months, the list of excuses was long - I am plateauing, work is busy - I have no time, class is so boring.

BootCamp Yellow is something else. I've been here two years and counting, with no plans to discontinue or go anywhere else. Each class is different, I am pushing my fitness limits every time, the coaches know their stuff, and the classes are so so much fun. It is like working out with friends. I never have an excuse to not attend a class.

Thank you to the BootCamp team, thank you for making me stronger, fitter, more agile.

 Rewind three years...zero activity, recovering from patellar tendinitis, I was sceptical to start of any kind of exercise/workout regime. But I needed a start...a push. Then, like a flash of luck, BCY announced trial classes in Vatika City. I was paranoid of an injury (didn't want it again!) but I made up my mind to give it a try. Jatin and Vidur (my first trainers) were really accomodating and they made it an easy transition for me. They were as cautious as I was, but, at the same time, they pushed me when required. I started gaining confidence and started enjoying my classes. Rain, fog, sunshine....the workout never stopped. 8 months later, I went for my summer sojurn to mountains. While exploring one of many unusual paths, I picked up a route, for a hike. Little did I know about how steep the hike was, I went to explore it, with my friend and kids. An hour of steep climb and voila, I didn't stop, didn't feel breathless at all!!! My knee didn't feel the pinch too. I was amazed myself and I felt STRONG!!! That hike brought back my confidence. I knew this was no magic but it all had to do with BCY strength and conditioning classes. The same year, yet another push came from Nitin (BCY trainer) to register for a walkathon.I did it and that too with a podium finish. This all multiplied my confidence and faith in the trainers and BCY program.

Fast forward to 2020 - Finished a 40 km walkathon (injury free) with an altitude gain of 1000m, 2 months ago. Today, I can proudly say that last 2.5 years with BCY have been life transforming years for me. From zero confidence to confidence to do walkathons, from weak knee to a stronger me, I owe it all to BCY. And not to mention the after workout chit chat and coffee with workout buddies makes life and training a lot more fun!!!

  I have been a foodie my entire life. My job involves lot of travelling and hence the foodie in me experiments with food wherever I go. But over a period of time , I kept piling up stubborn weight/fat in my body. I went from a waist size of 30 to 36 , Body weight reached 94 kgs. I started small activities to get slimmer but it didn't help me. Then my friend Sindhu introduced me to Jatin's Boot Camp Yellow 2.5 yrs back and since then there is no looking back. Boot Camp Yellow's structured training slowly helped me get back in to shape. My strength is on a rise and my stamina has increased substantially. From not even running few steps , I now have decent half marathons under my belt. Fitness is not a one day, few weeks or few month's job which my coach Jatin reinforced day in day out. My BCY family pushes each other to help reach their goals. Though I have a long way to go, i know, the sweat, the dedication, the time will eventually pay off. I thank Jatin and the beautiful ecosystem of Boot Camp Yellow for inculcating the fitness psyche inside me. I feel more energized and rejuvenated post my fitness sessions. A big thanks to my coaches #Jatin, #Mahashweta# Prabhakaran# Sree # Rohit for helping me reach where I am today..Thank you to the entire Bootcamp Yellow fraternity. #inuswetrust#bootcampyellow# yellowmornings#   

  This one is for new moms contemplating restarting / starting work on fixing their bodies.. I started off 8 months ago in a real bad spot with a lot to work on.. 5 months post delivery at 80 kgs , with a huge diastasis gap and a super weak back which could not carry my weight. Add to that total loss of balance and misaligned movement. The sad and bad hormones kicking in postpartum weren’t helping either. Enter- Boot Camp Yellow! Right from Day 1 at BCY I felt that the coaches ( in my case Jatin Arora) have this genuine quality to them which makes you feel comfortable despite the insecurities you may have about your body or fitness level. Never for once did I go home feeling out of place, shamed or awkward and not wanting to come back to give it another go. The way they focus on posture and technique is custom made to ensure you go home with only the best kind of workout pains😊 Just sticking to the thorough yet doable routine planned out by the coach worked wonders. Now 12 kilos down and a few more to go, I feel stronger and less averse to daily workouts! Thank you Jatin Arora and the BCY team for bringing to Gurgaon this wonderful lease of life!
