Website: https://fitbodybootcamp.com/foothillsfitnessbootcamp/

BIO: Carol’s decision to create Foothills Fit Body Boot Camp started with a desire to instill in others a lifestyle for themselves and their families centered around improving personal health and creating wellness as a way of life. Coming from two very stressful prior careers in the Air Force and the Police Department, Carol found much of her life was lived in a constant state of overwhelm. Over time this began to take a toll on her overall personal health and wellness. She knew it was time to get back on track and implement fitness and nutrition habits in her own life.

It was at this time when she and her husband Rob Carruth discovered Fit Body Boot Camp and learned first hand about this powerful fitness, health, and wellness model that had already helped hundreds of thousands of people around the world. In Fit Body Boot Camp, Carol and Rob found a complete program that incorporated fitness, nutrition, accountability, social support, and community. Through this journey, Carol and Rob knew this was the direction they wanted to take to serve the community they love.
