About Glynn

Glynn spends much of his time motivating and training others to achieve their goals, whatever that maybe. Getting people outside in the fresh air and understanding that there are better, more enjoyable ways to train other than the gym, is his ambition. His spare time is spent training himself, he is a big believer in 'practice what you preach'.

Why we love Glynn

Glynn co-founded Essex Boot Camp in 2006 with a vision to create a leading outdoor exercise experience, to cater for all fitness levels. With a military background, the Royal Marines Commandos is one of the UKs toughest physical tests to pass and be accepted into. It’s the toughest for a reason as the Royal Marines are some of the fittest people in the world, and that’s purely down to the training they go through. Starting a ‘Boot Camp’ was the obvious answer to Glynn, “Essex Boot Camp brings together a range of exercises from military inspired circuits, using Mother Nature’s gym (logs, hills etc), all the while having a good time and meeting some great characters”.

Why Glynn loves Essex Boot Camp

“Put very simply, Essex Boot Camp ticks all the boxes for the perfect solution to achieve results.  Varied training, experienced instructors and training that is fun but very affective.  Super fit or super unfit our training will cater for you”.

“We both loved it, as when you’re pushed you feel you have really achieved something. I couldn’t believe the hour was up so quickly and it was great to be out in the fresh air. No matter how bad I was I never felt like I was left behind so that’s a testament to Glynn, and how good a good physical trainer he is”

Mairead Samwell Quote after she took her trial session.

I still get a buzz from instructing at Essex Boot Camp, it’s as fresh for me as it was back in 2006.

Adam also attempted to complete the world’s toughest military training for the royal marines but wasn’t man enough and had to leave due to injury. Adam has had firsthand experience as a boot camp victim loosing over a stone and reaching fitness levels he never thought he could reach.

Additional Qualifications

Adam understands what it takes to reach goals and training hard. Adams likes to add variety to workouts keeping each session challenging and coming away with a sense of achievement. Adam has an excellent personality and believes in people feeling good about themselves and therefor will motivate and praise you to achieve this result (praise comes at a hefty price)!!

About Adam

Adam was introduced to us by originally becoming a member. We trained Adam to drop some weight and get the physical and mental attitude to peruse a career in the Royal Marines. Unfortunately a bad injury cut his time short, so a change of direction was needed. Having got to know Adam during sessions and seeing his keenness to give 100% whilst smiling, we knew that if the Marines would accept him – so could we.

Why we love Adam

‘Fezza’ as he is known has instantly become a valued part of the team. He knows Essex Boot Camp inside and out having been a member. Then bringing his Semi-pro Rugby team spirit and Marine attitude to his sessions, he is full of surprises (and the odd pie)

Why Adam loves Essex Boot Camp

Why we love Paul

His excellent sense of humor (especially on those rainy days) really motivates the members, ensuring they reach their maximum and achieve their goals, whilst having fun.

Why Paul loves Essex Boot Camp

“Unless they're hardened weight trainers, most gym frequenters follow a familiar pattern. A little bit of treadmill time, some weights and maybe the cross trainer. All of this with no supervision and no motivation to push beyond a pre-determined comfort zone. It's little wonder that attendance drops off as the year goes on. I started outdoor training over four years ago and have no desire at all to return to a gym. For the average person, everything you need to get fit and lose weight can be found outdoors. Everyday objects you may have walked past suddenly turn into an exercise tool! You simply cannot replicate the feeling Essex Boot Camp training gives you within the confines of a gym. Give it a go and you'll soon see what I mean!”
