Latest strength training review
I've been attending the Hove boot camps and gym sessions for the past five months. Previously I’d tried lots of different things, boxercise, body combat, run club, yoga, or just slaving over a cardio machine at the gym. I always got bored, and de-motivated when I didn’t get the results that I wanted.
I enjoy the boot camps as every one is different, and you get that positive encouragement to help you along. The guys know what they are doing, so after a mere 40 minutes I get a much better workout than pounding the machines at the gym for hours and not really knowing what to do! I feel stronger, I have lots more energy and I’m leaner to the tune of almost two dress sizes. The sun always seems to shine on our Saturday morning boot camps, and working out in the open air is lovely, it beats a stuffy gym I tell you!
