<< Am I getting a better workout by running in the midday heat?

My body weight is normal but I have high cholesterol. How come? >>

Q:
What can I expect from boot camp training?

Boot camps have their roots in the tough initiation phase of military training. In the fitness industry, it’s a form of group training. What you can get out of it depends on the instructor and the programme that you’re in. There needs to be a balance between progression and variety. The programme should change every month or so to keep you progressing. If it’s well designed, you should be able to get good fat-loss benefits from a boot camp. However, due to the lack of heavy weights, boot camps are not ideal for people trying to get strong.

I’m not a fan of the high-speed, jumping activities that I see in many boot camps. These are not ideal for a beginner who may be undertrained and overweight. Make an informed choice: Ask for a free trial and a no-hassle money-back guarantee to see if it meets your fitness needs.
