Fitness Boot Camps are sweeping America
One exercise trend that had its start lately is the fitness boot camp. Motivated by our soldiers getting ready before going off to fight, boot camp exercise programs for civilians are poping up everywhere in the country. Some of these boot camps are militaristic, lead by drill sergeants in fatigues shouting orders, while other camps are more friendly and encouraging, lead by inspirational group exercise instructors.
Boot camp exercise classes vary in choice, subject to the company and instructor. But typically a bootcamper is going to be given a physical test in the beginning of a camp, to assess fitness level. Then bootcampers will meet outside, frequentlyheld at a park, beach, or river promenade, for an hour, usually 2-5 times per week for 3-4 weeks. Fitness boot camps really encompass all of the required elements to truly stimulate many people. Typically there will always be different fitness levels in the class, so bootcampers dont feel alone nor left behind, yet feel inspired to improve by being among the bootcampers who are more fit than themselves.
During the boot camp, attendees can get to undertake moving workouts for a stretch warm-up accompanied by interval training which switches back-and-forth between aerobic and strength workouts. Cardio training are used so you can get the heart rate up and include movement training such as running, walking lunges, step-ups on benches, sit-ups, mountain climbers, etc. Strength training will include push-ups, triceps dips, holding core position, etc. At the end of the 3-4 weeks, the bootcamper is given another physical test to check fitness improvement.
Boot camps are offering individuals with physical and mental challenge as well as camaraderie, which are all very attractive and cannot be found in the gym.
