The Camp Transformation Center

After seeing the advertisements for The Camp pop up repeatedly on my Facebook I kind of had a curiosity and I thought maybe perhaps this would be something that could work for me.
I thought about signing up a couple challenges ago but I was really scared and I thought to myself 20 pounds for someone of my stature being only 5’2″ and 172.4 at the time it would be impossible. However finding out that I was 172.4 and being brought to literal tears I thought something drastic needs to happen. I went ahead and signed up I went for it. I was scared but I found myself truly committed to prepping food, to getting up at 5:15 in the morning in order to work out, to pulling doubles, and just making new friends. When I joined I weighed in at a 171.1 and I thought I’m going to go for it I pushed really hard. I was not 100% perfect but considering how I was before I was doing pretty darn good. I attempted to lose weight on my own and only lost a little over a pound in the course of three weeks. But with the camp I lost 19.1 in 6 weeks.
My jeans fit bagging, my boyfriend has bought me some new jeans and shorts, I’m buying two pieces for vacation.
I’m not where I need to be for a healthier body, mind and soul but I’m working on it and I’m going to get there. And the camp has given me a new outlook on healthy eating and great workouts, as well as caring staff and amazing members.
Would I recommend? Abso-​fing-​lutely

I am incredibly happy with my overall results! Although 2^nd challenge I missed by 2 ounces, I would not change anything. The support, the workouts. the staff and more importantly the environment is just a great. Every piece is important to be successful during this journey. Most importantly I finally understand is about a new lifestyle and not a fad. I am more conscientious about what I am eating and know what I need to do to stay healthy! Thank you AFF and the Camp!

I love The Camp TC!!!
I feel that I owe a lot to The Camp TC. Before signing up, I really felt that my lifestyle would not change over the course of 6 weeks. I was wrong. I was VERY wrong. Over the course of the 6 weeks, the 20 in 42 program helped me appreciate a new lifestyle. It took 28 years of my life to realize I love the feeling of working out and eating healthy. And this is all thanks to The Camp.
Considering myself new to the fitness world, I was very clueless on what to do and what not to do. The friendly staff, members and other challengers were very supportive and informative on my journey to a healthier life.
Thank You, The Camp of Irvine! I love it so much I’m coming back for more!
Total Weight Loss in 6 weeks: 30.9 lbs.

I just finished my second 6 week challenge and I am so happy to say that I lost 21.4 pounds in 6 weeks! That is 42.7 pounds in 12 weeks! I’m still in shock what 3 months has done for me. I recommend The Camp everyone I know! The workouts are challenging and exhausting, but totally doable. They are my favorite part of the program now! I unfortunately had a gain one week because I took a trip and did not follow the directions, but I made up for it and pushed myself harder than ever and I was able to pass the 20! It is so simple, follow the instructions and work out. It will be challenging at times, but it is SO WORTH IT! I can’t wait to start third and final challenge! So close to my goal!

I melted 21.9lbs in 6 weeks!
So I found out about this place through my co-​worker, she went to the West Covina camp and showed me her before+after pictures. She looks like two total different person, fitter, happier, and more energetic, as well as a friend who saw the advertisement on Facebook and be dragged me to this orientation.
In the beginning I had my doubts, unlike the other people who think that they will grab your money and go, my problem is I didn’t believe in myself, I’ve tried dozens of weight lost methods, either they not really worked on me, or the weights came back very quickly. There was one time I spent over $ 1000 on some weight loss products, I didn’t even touch them and they expired in my garage. So I was there thinking. It’s just another $ 500 in the ocean :(
In order to get your money back, 1. Workout at the gym at least 5 times a week (time is very flexible too) 2. Weight in every Monday 3. Achieve 20lb goal by the end of 6^th week.
What really differentiate them from the other gym is that they truly cares about our success and they provide every tool you need to get there! All the staffs here are super friendly, answers your questions, made sure you are on track! Just follow the damn instruction and trust the process!!! Bottom line is, this is another tool to get you started on your fitness journey, get you in the habit of eating clean and healthy with regular gym workouts, since now I’m used to this life style it’ll be a lot earlier for me to maintain weight and get ready for the summer: D
I can’t thank the camp, the staff and my friend who pushed me into this enough for a brand new me :)

OK, I was skeptical when I first came here. I thought it was impossible and too good to be true. I thought they were just gonna take my money and run, but I can honestly day I lost 26.6 lbs in 6 weeks. This place is amazing from the trainers to the trainees, everyone is positive and pushes each other to their goals. No judgement for your fitness level, no glaring eyes. Just one large fitness family that wants each of you yo succeed. I recommend it, I converted to a membership, well worth it!
The 6 week challenge was what got me. I wanted to lose weight and change my ways. This program shows you the way. And you have a massive support group that is always there yo help you in your time of need. This isn’t a diet, it’s a lifestyle change. One that I promise you if you dedicate yourself will make you stronger and fitter and that much closer to your goal. Stick to it, the best investment is the one you make on yourself and the camp gives you the tools to make sure you succeed!

Last day of my 6 week challenge — in just 6 weeks I not only lost weight but I got rid of so much negativity and unhappiness. I am so glad I took the leap of faith to push myself outside is my comfort zone.

This journey has been very enlightening. I learned that most of what I was eating was fairly unhealthy and I ate way too much. I was felt motivated by the instructors and they were very helpful in pushing me. 2 weeks before the challenge ended I got hurt, but I kept the diet. I lost over 8 pounds in the last 2 weeks of the challenge even when I worked out less aggressively. Now that I got to a healthier weight I can loose a few more pounds and tone out my body. Honestly for those who want to lose the weight make sure you actually stick to the plan and meal prep. The workouts make you stronger and help you feel better. Thank you Alfredo and Lizzy for all your motivation.

Just completed my 3^rd successful challenge in anaheim. Antonio TC Manocchi was awesome I’m currently down 89.1 lbs. It’s a rewarding feeling when you see your hard work pay off. Best thing I’ve done for myself in like 10 yrs. A day to relax and right back in the saddle again for my next challenge. .

I had six very ambitious new year resolutions which also related to turning 30 this year. Make larger financial investment, emotionally mature as an individual and as many of us do, lose weight — specifically 20 lbs.
I’ve always been fairly active — pole fitness classes and competition, yoga, salsa, twerk, Zumba, and standard gym — I never had issues working out. My main issue was the types of food I consumed and probably the proportion. I love being a foodie and I love foodie adventures. I knew this would be the toughest part for any plan to reach my 20 lb new year resolution.
How do I do this? How the hell do I lose 20 lbs? Well a Facebook friend had her page 20 lbs in 42 days challenge and my sister was finishing up a similar challenge, second round. Why not? Why not try this out? It’s 42 days… Easy peezy right?
Well, somewhat. It was the most DIFFICULT and most REWARDING 42 days of my life. Here are the highlights that any Unilocaler would appreciate:
Workouts:
— get 30 done is 42 days, about 5 a week.
— Think circuit training done in 50 minutes
— Trainers were Great and mixed up the workouts every day. if one workout was too rough, you’ll move on in a minute
— A small part of your body will always be sore — I always loved this
— Workout at any camp, orange county had plenty to choose from– my camps were Irvine, Anaheim and Costa Mesa! Talk about flexibility!
— Best outcome here: I started using weights on a regular basis, I’m no longer afraid of Dumbbells or benching.
Nutrition:
— 6 meals, 6 times a day
— Specific list of foods for carbs, protein and veggies– all best in class foods for nutrition and weight loss
— 3 meals were for women included: 4 oz protein, 2 oz carbs, and unlimited veggies
— 3 meals were protein shakes or 4 oz of protein
— After some adjustments it was Easy to create yummy healthy recipes, never felt like I was on a diet except when my friends asked me out for drinks or a restaurant.
— Bah Hambug! No alcohol No sugar. no dairy. No processed foods.
— Guess it was time to treat my body like a temple lol
— Best outcome here: I made all my foods from scratch and knew exactly how it was «processed»
Support/​other notes:
— This is a free program, with a deposit of $ 497.
— Losing the 20 lbs and 30 workout check ins and a few other tid-​bits guaranteed a refund making it truly FREE. Other words — ACCOUNTABILITY
— Weigh ins are Monday’s. coaching and guidance from the director and coordinators from your home camp. If weight wasn’t falling off, they’d give you suggestions and advise how to change things up — nutrition and/​or workout
— Best outcome: Welcoming and very supportive environment — everyone was there once, everyone joined for their own reason, everyone supported one another.
Final outcome
— 20.2 lbs in 6 weeks… Technically 39 days since I had to weigh out early due to prior commitments.
I highly recommend this program for those who want to lose 20 lbs and those who are ready for a lifestyle change. This is simply Phase 0 to the long term goals — a healthy and active lifestyle.
Go for it!!!

The camp is a great opportunity to kick start your fitness routine and lose some weight. There work outs are awesome and I have sweated the most I have sweat in my life. Everyone that works there is great and has a positive attitude. I feel like they genuinely care about your results.
The 20 lbs challenge works but may be difficult for others. I lost my 20 lbs but my friend who did it with me didn’t meet it. The FTDI diet gets old fast but does help you lose the weight and detoxes your body.
To get your deposit back you have to get to your high BMI which means you may have to do multiple challenges. As you lose more and more weight your metabolism slows and body doesn’t burn the fat as quickly. Because of this each challenge gets harder and harder which may mean you need to increase the number of workouts a day.
That can get hard when life gets in the way, like having a full time job and two little ones at home. But if you follow the plan and rules you can do it.
If you’re looking for a great environment to jump start your fitness routine, this place is it.

Althought I have not been doing any gym memberships, after doing The Camp, I would not go to another gym.
They have the best trainers, members and staff with wonderful spirit. The environment is very friendly and uplifting, while everyone helps each other out to reach each individual’s personal fitness goals.
I have been trying to build muscles for the past few years and I gained more progress being here for 2 weeks than me doing it by myself for years!
I’d especially like to recommend the trainers Chrissy, Dennis, Ernesto, Alfredo, Lizzy, and Leah. They are strict in a great way; they make sure you are in the proper posture (preventing injury to yourself), and make sure you are on the level of weight you should be in and push you to reach higher goals.
I also like to recommend Veronica and Monica [*the twins ;)*]. They are one of the most pleasant staff members I’ve ever worked with. Always courteous with a big smile on their faces, no wonder more and more people join!
Last but not least, Lalo, the manager, is extremely easy to work with. I had a difficult schedule where I need to move between different weeks and he was very accommodating, fit me right in and also hooked me up with a great deal.
They also have various challenges such as 20 lbs in 6 wks, bikini challenge, etc to suit your personal preference.
Five stars all the way. Best gym ever. Highly recommended if you are serious about reaching your personal fitness goals!

I really couldn’t believe I had lost 23.2 lbs — I’m still kind of in shock because I’ve tried a number of other ways and none of them worked like this one. The entire challenge was a roller coaster with ups and downs. The 20lbin42 challenge not only works your body to remold it to be healthier, but it also works on your character.
The Camp is awesome, right from the get go you can tell how much the staff cares about its members by the way they answer questions and how much they motivate you. When I first started I was scared I wasn’t going to be able to keep up with the workouts, but the trainers are so good about modifications and guiding you through it all that it soon became possible and after a while I was able to enjoy them.
One of the things that totally blew me away was seeing the staff sweat bullets right next to us on their off days — they truly believe in The Camp and they show it. One of my favorite things was definitely the Secret Facebook Page they have for member support — having support while trying to accomplish a goal is priceless and there was always someone there to help me keep pushing through.
Joining the Camp was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my health and my self-​esteem and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone who is ready to make a change in their life, it’s not a quick fix, it’s the beginning of a new way of life.

I did the 20 pound weight loss challenge here and it was AWESOME!!! Not only was the challenge organized in an awesome way (it helped me stay on track and stay focused and follow the diet and exercise plan) but the overall atmosphere was great. The classes were well organized and challenging and I felt like I was really doing awesome work and getting fit. I enjoyed my experience there and I loved the classes and I’m super thankful to the camp transformation center for helping me get back into shape and get strong and fit once again!!!
I lost 24.7 pounds and it was a life-​changing experience :)

The camp is a great place for those looking to transform their bodies. As I took part in a 6 week challenge to lose 20lbs I put all my effort to complete the challenge. In summary the camp offers several locations, awesome trainers with variety, a positive atmosphere, great supplements and a meal plan to help achieve your goal. I couldn’t be any more grateful to have been challenged to take this 6 week challenge. I’ve lost 20.3lbs in the 6 week and 9.5lbs from the orientation day to the beginning of the challenge making a total a of 29.8lbs in 8 weeks!!! And this will not end here because I’m starting Challenge #2 on Monday.
Upon signing up at the Irvine location immediately I was inspired by Lalo and Ana and all other members who have transformed their bodies. All trainers and staff keep the atmosphere positive and even know you by name. In addition to the workouts the camp invites all members to hikes, food planning events and additional challenges throughout the year. Overall I recommend the camp transformation center to everyone who’s looking for a new beginning in their healthier life!!!

I finished my 6 weeks with 20.6 lbs lost, this is exactly what I was looking for and needed. I was tired of the regular gym membership where there was little to no help with anything and no accountability. I’m actually going for a second round to reach my goal of my ideal weight and BMI.
The trainers at the camp are fantastic, and their workouts are the fastest 50 minutes you will spend in your day. The support staff is friendly and supportive. Many of them have been challengers themselves, so they know what you’re going through. And the meal plan is completely manageable (especially when you find other camp challengers sharing recipes on the private facebook support group).

I absolutely love The Camp!!! I recommend it to everyone!!! The Camp taught me how to eat healthy and how to reach my athletic goals. I feel so strong now and it’s so cool to feel your squats and push-​ups pay off! I signed up for a year membership because I love the workouts soooo much. The trainers are all awesome and all the 5 am regulars are amazing! It’s cool to see everyone go through the challenge process, too! My favorite parts about the camp are:
1.) seeing all those before and after pictures because they’re REAL people
2.) hearing all the stories of people getting off heart and other medications because of their lifestyle change!
I can’t recommend this place enough! You will love it too!

I must admit that I was hesitant at that orientation meeting for Camp Transformation. I thought I don’t do well with commitments but I signed up.
I did my first workout and was out of breath in the first 5 minutes and of course I heard that dreaded word «burpee». I was sore that first week but felt accomplished as there were muscles I felt that I know I hadn’t worked out for a long time. My first week was a little slow on the weight loss. Then it picked up week after week.
I began to really like the fast paced moving between challenging stations (still hated the burpees). I learned many new exercises to make me stronger. The workouts went quick and before you knew it they were over. There were great trainers like Joel, Christi, Chrissy, Alfredo, Gina, Ernesto, Clay, and some others who I visited other locations only once.
I will say Camp Transformation does have many locations and great hours that eliminates your excuse of it being inconvenient. The facilities are nice and the staff are great. Lalo, Maria, and Ana truly make you feel like family (AFF).
Now 6 weeks later and just shy of 29 lbs lighter I am stronger and can exercise more without running out of breath as much all owed to this program. Thanks Camp Transformation.

Simply put, 6 weeks of focused diet and exercise work. The Camp knows this, and builds a great business on that principle. Through a mix of high intensity circuit workouts 5 times a week, and a great diet, they can get you from wherever you’re at to where you keep promising yourself that you will get to. I started out at the camp, expecting to have to go to all sorts of extremes to drop the 20lbs that I had put on through stress and bad eating habits. It turns out that as long as you follow the (damn) instructions, and trust them that you will have an excellent chance of dropping 20lbs in 6 weeks.
All things considered, they run a great program. Plenty of locations, energetic staff, and challenging workouts that can be modified for anyone to get through. I worked out primarily at their Laguna Hills location, even though I signed up at the Irvine location– so I’d like to specifically thank Clay Scarborough for putting together well designed workouts, and helping our group get across the finish line.
I would recommend The Camp for anybody that is ready to take weight loss into their own hands.

I successfully completed the 5 week/​15lbs alumni challenge by losing over 18lbs in that 5 week period!
This time around I got my act together. I found the right balance in my diet that worked for me. followed the instructions in their awesome re-​vamped «Camp Bible». I worked really hard with the trainers. I pushed myself more and more during every exercise. and I worked hard on getting in more cardio. If you need to lose weight, if you want to get healthy, this is the right gym and the right environment for you. Everyone, including myself, a continuing member, is here to support you and help you along the way.
They offer their conventional/​traditional «Lose 20 lbs in 6 weeks», which I tried and didn’t successfully lose the weight, but again, i loved the trainers, the members, and the staff so much that i couldn’t bare to see myself part. Signed up for the yearly membership. Then signed right up for the 15lbs alumni challenge determined to kill it.
They now offer a «Bikini Challenge» to lose 5% body fat in 6 weeks.
If you need a kick-​start on getting healthy, I encourage you to check out this program. I already signed up for the Bikini Challenge ;)
See you there!
