When you sign up for a weight loss boot camp you are making a serious commitment to shifting the fat. At a weight loss boot camp you will work hard, but you will also reap the rewards.
Personal Trainer and Master Tutor Jo Green at The Health and Fitness Institute says "a weight loss boot camp will be an intensive program based on military programs, and will include running, circuit training and core work, combined with parade drills, battle drills, team games, obstacle courses, and boxing."
Unlike your regular gym sessions at the gym, these are programs where you may find yourself working out for up to six hours per day. This is deliberate - you will be forced to push yourself harder than you think is possible, and as a result will emerge stronger, both physically and psychologically.
