My decision to go to APW Boot Camp is really influenced by it's location. I can't afford to move away right now. Obviously, if APW was considered an awful place to go for training, I wouldn't be going. Maybe waiting a while and moving near somewhere with good credentials. However, I'm constantly hearing good things about this place and it's just an hour drive... it seems like a great plan.
On a side note, I bought the first season of Tough Enough a few weeks ago and have been watching it. DAMN, it would be awesome to be trained by Al Snow. He is my favorite person ever.
