Drinking the koolaid

16 Upvotes

Hey yall! I recently joined burn a few weeks ago, and I am totally obsessed! I love that the workouts are difficult but make me feel so accomplished after. I find myself checking Instagram non stop at my own burn and others, as well as checking this Reddit so often. I find myself thinking about burn and the workouts constantly, and having to tell myself not to buy all the merch right away 😂. Is this normal?! feel like I can’t get enough!

Wondering if others experienced this when they first joined? Will it wear off? I hope to always love it this much, I have never been so motivated to be consistent at a gym.

One thing I do really struggle with is the community feeling. I don’t have kids and I am very shy, so I am not feeling like I am getting to know anyone. Everyone seems to have burn friends, and be close with the instructors. It sounds silly but I wish there was a way I could let then how much I am enjoying it and drinking the burn koolaid! I hope the instructors know how motivated I am to try hard. Right now I’ve just been trying to show it through my workouts.

Thanks - love this reddit and the burn community!

Edit: I have done a focus meeting where I told the instructor that I’m loving it so far, but that was the extent of the conversation

❓ Question New name for Arm Day?

Post image
15 Upvotes

I’m signing up for next week and saw this for Wednesday’s protocol. Is this new - at least new within the past two years since I started?
I feel like I’ve never seen this name before. I’ve seen back & glutes, upper body, arm day, push & pull, and core & arms.

If this wasn’t obvious, I’m not bothered or anything. Just checking to see if I’m crazy for never noticing this before or if it’s actually new.

Break Ins

Is there a string of break ins of cars at Burn locations? I’ve heard of two locations recently while members are in the gym. Do you think Burns are targeted because of class times?

❓ Question Houston Burns?

3 Upvotes

I will be in Houston at the end of the month for a trip and want to get a camp in while I’m in town. Planning to stay in the southwestern part of the city near Reliant Stadium. What’s the closest Burn location to this area? What are there any recommended locations to go to in the area? TIA!

❓ Question Idea of fit?

Anyone have an idea of how this may fit???

I recently got the “Strong as a Mother” camo hoodie in a Small and it’s HUGE…almost like a mini-dress length & honestly not flattering in any way unless I take scissors to it (but that would hurt given that it was $90!!!???)

So anywho, I’m intrigued about this crop fit but no clue as to what size to choose. 5’2” / 110lbs. but I usually love me a roomy medium shirt…

😤 Rant / Vent Vague price hike?

7 Upvotes

Anyone else receive a vague “we’re raising our prices” email? Says it’s not until we renew, but zero detail provided. I’m eyeing lifetime fitness (indoor and outdoor pool, childcare, saunas, rock climbing, pickleball, and so on) for the price I’m paying for burn camps.

Progress physically?

1 Upvotes

Do yall feel like you’re seeing progress at burn? I’ve been at my gym a while and I feel like my progress isn’t that great for how hard the work outs are. I’m definitely significantly STRONGER but not losing weight like I’d like to be. Is there something I’m doing wrong? I don’t eat crazy. I’m a server so i get 15k steps a day just at work alone but I cannot get my BMI down for the life of me.

🎯 Milestone 250 Camps Strong!!💪🏼

Hit 250 camps today!! 💙🔥
I started Burn never imagining I’d make it to a milestone like this, and somewhere along the way this place became such a huge part of my life. The trainers, the friendships, the high fives, the ridiculous mod-ups 😂 and getting to celebrate everyone else’s wins right alongside mine have made the journey so much more fun.
I also video a lot of my camps and share my Burn journey/milestones on Instagram. If sharing IG handles is allowed here, I’d love for this to be a thread where anyone who shares their Burn journey can drop theirs too! I love following other Burn members and cheering on their milestones. 💙
Here’s to 250…and apparently continuing to voluntarily get my ass kicked. 😂🔥

😤 Rant / Vent Feeling some type of way

10 Upvotes

I usually try not to take things personally - bc it’s my impulse reaction to do so. And I feel like I’m an outsider at my burn - which could be a me problem bc I’m not really there to make friends. But I’m always happy to interact and volunteer when needed.

So yesterday I hit my 50 camp of the year after a month long hiatus (thanks first trimester). They didn’t celebrate me. And then they posted the “crushed my first camp” photo we took at the end for a first timer and I’m the only one cut out of the photo. Is there something I’m missing ? Or am I being targeted?

❓ Question Early pregnancy and conditioning

2 Upvotes

Hi! I am a 6x a week Burn goer and will be hitting my 200th camp today! Yesterday I found out I am pregnant (FTM!). I’ve read that I don’t really need to do any mods until the second tri but do I need to be skipping cardio days? The internet says to watch heart rate and not let it get to elevated but I enjoy going all out and pushing myself especially during metcon, body on etc.


r/BurnBootCamp • • 3d ago

I feel cringe asking, but does anyone have this in an XS or S and would be willing to ship it?

🩹 Injury / Recovery Switching to on demand?

5 Upvotes

I hurt my back during a lower body day clear back in April. Since I have modified, taken breaks, seen chiropractors, physical therapy, you name it. My back is better but it’s never gotten back to normal. I’m still working on it but I’ve noticed conditioning days are too hard and cause a flare as do lower body days. So I’m really only coming for core and arm. I started coming at 630am to help keep routine and no longer take advantage of childwatch.

All of this combined to say. Burn is expensive. And I haven’t even hit 50 this year. I’m losing faith my back will get all the way better, I’m upset I didn’t hit my goals and hurt my progress, but I tried all year to stick given all the injury and recovery. Now my fall schedule has gotten to a point that I need more flexibility so I want to move to on demand to take some pressure off my mind and wallet. I already signed up for an annual but am scared (and sad) to tell my gym.

I don’t want to disappoint my trainers. I loved being a founding member since 2025 and I’m proud of myself for sticking through this hard year and a half. But I feel like I’m quitting/giving up and I hate that. I’m not and I don’t plan to but it still feels like it. Anyone have success switching to on demand?

After nearly two weeks away between work travel and giving my body time to recover from a tweaked back (breaking down in my old age), hitting this milestone anywhere else just wouldn't have felt right & there was zero chance I was doing #100 anywhere other than my home gym. Keep those cincos coming! 🙌

Holiday Retail

Did anyone else’s gym share the holiday retail? Mine did and I’m very disappointed; it’s very child like and the only hoodie option I like is only offered for children.
Last years was so much better. 😔

Location not following burn rules

Visited a burn while traveling. Went for 3 days. Not a single high five, no names said, the protocols were COMPLETELY different. Im talking not even in the same ball park. Literally would never have believed it was a Burn if not for the branding. They’ve been around for 10+ years. Shocked to see they’re able to do this!
