Bored with the same old workout? Can't find time to get fit? Want to know what Hollywood stars do to get in shape fast? Join the boot camp!
Never out of fashion, high intensity workouts are always in demand for those with a few pounds to lose: from brides to tough guys. Started in the 80's to introduce civilians to military style exercise, boot camps were originally marketed to men who didn't want to sweat in the company of women. Now they've become a great way for moms, brides and high powered execs looking for a super efficient workout. The incredibly popular workouts, run by former military people or personal trainers, focus on full body fitness and address cardio and muscular endurance. Conveniently located all around the city, these workouts are fast, fun and burn a lot of calories. And, you see results fast!
Experts say the main advantage of boot camp workouts is the intensity that elevates post-workout metabolism and helps with fast fat loss, agility and balance. They say it is also easier for people to focus on a four-week period of daily workouts and give it their all instead of thinking about going to the gym for a year.
So, what really happens at a boot camp and how will you benefit?
1) The workouts are short, usually around 30 minutes
2) Each day works an entire body
3) Exercises are different and fun
4) You don't need to worry about equipment
5) They are easy to fit into any schedule
I believe the main reason fitness boot camps are such a great way to get lose weight and tone your body is because they provide structure and consistency. Structure is very important when you begin any exercise regimen, and consistency helps your body burn fat faster. Boot camps enlist a variety of resistance exercises such as stability balls, resistance bands, dumbbells and plyometrics. Every day you build endurance. Don't forget the health benefits. Boot camp workouts increase cardiovascular strenght as well. Weight bearing exercise help reduce risk of osteoporosis and increase bone density.
Everyone knows that motivation is the key to success. With a fitness boot camp, not only are the workouts intense enough to provide you with the results you want, but you will find that the personal trainers and instructors help you with the motivation to keep you consistent.
