With constant airbrushed images in the media, and the pressure on young women to be “perfect”, many women find themselves beginning new fitness regimes at multiple times during a year in an effort to get the body of their dreams; the annual week in the sun can often be a source of panic and worry for women when they consider donning a bikini. Now, there is new form of exercise available aimed at kick-starting your metabolism and promising a guaranteed weight loss; the fitness boot camp. First made popular in America, these army-style exercise classes have now spread around to many other countries and become increasingly popular; many celebs have been spotted attending boot camp classes in an effort to maintain their A-list bodies.

So what do these boot camps consist of? Fitness boot camp classes are usually at least two hours long and focus on very high-intensity cardio and army-style training. A lot of the activities are similar to exercises performed regularly in the army to keep the recruits in tip-top condition. These lessons are performed outside and are usually led by a number of instructors who aim to constantly push your fitness to its limits. Do not let this approach put you off though; the instructors aim to get the very best results for their clients and many attendees report loss of inches within the first week. A course of these boot camp classes can help get you beach ready in no time, as long as you put the maximum amount of effort in.

There are also many boot camps around the country that offers residential courses where you stay on-site for one or two weeks; this is usually only recommended for clients who require a significant amount of weight loss or have a desire to completely overhaul their current lifestyle, and they usually require you to have checked with your doctor that you are a suitable candidate for the course. During these residential courses meals are provided and are aimed at providing all necessary nutrition whilst cutting out all junk food and unnecessary refined sugar.
