Spending long periods on the couch can induce potatoism, a debilitating disease that is known for eliciting excessive physical rounding along with a desire to become mashed and fill a shepherd's pie. Save yourself from a grim casserole recipe fate with today's WagJag, and pay $29 to get five boot camp classes from Healthy Bodies Fitness (regularly worth $60).

This Vancouver-based fitness initiative is open to men and women of all ages looking for an invigorating fitness experience, with classes designed to build confidence as well as physical ability. Marita Harinen, a certified instructor with the British Columbia Recreation and Parks Association, guides exercise scholars in an intensive boot camp program that runs through a fluctuating list of drills; work up a sweat with ladders, kettlebells, Lebert Equalizers, ropes and slalom poles to get buff at military speed. With this five-class pass, participants at any experience level can get a taste for the program amongst like-minded, encouraging individuals. Enjoy the many benefits of movement at one of two outdoor locations in Colwood or East Sooke - view the class schedule for available times at each.
