Boot Camp Fitness

The Answer To The "Reasons" People Have For Not
Getting Fit and Staying Fit

A boot camp fitness program can EASILY open the door to levels of fitness you forgot even existed.  How?  I'll show you how.  With the great big outside world as your gym, the opportunities are endless.

If you want to get in better shape, this website is here to help.  If you want to feel more energetic than you have in years, let me give you some ideas.  If you want to do it all for FREE, you're definitely in the right place. 

Like the idea of a free exercise plan?  Here it is. First look for a healthy energy drink alternative.

The concept is easy to understand.  Boot camp fitness is all about workouts that combine cardio and strength training exercises.  You don’t stand around between sets like weight lifting and you don’t keep a constant pace like jogging.  It looks more like "run to the top of that hill, knock out 10 pushups, run back down, do it again".

If you run or jog now, great.  Sure it's the same 4 mile loop around the neighborhood or maybe even logging minutes on the treadmill.  Still, that puts you ahead of the majority of the population.  If you lift some weights, hey that's great too. 

But think about how long it has been since you honestly said "MAN that workout really kicked my a**!"
