Last week I rejoined Fit Body Boot Camp in Glasgow (there's also one in Edinburgh). I went to Boot Camp a few years ago, and I remember having a quite intense love-hate relationship with it. There was a deal on Amazon Local which was £39 for 6 weeks and I decided to go along and check out the new (to me!) premises! I've been going for just over a week now so I thought I'd share my thoughts.
The studio is in Bothwell Street in Glasgow's City Centre so it's really easy to get to, although parking can be a bit tricky. There's no mirrors in the studio which I like and the classes are small enough that the instructors can keep an eye on your form. Classes last half an hour and start super early 06:15 to 20:00 although there are some small windows of time where there aren't classes on. As a shift worker I've found it easy enough to get to classes and there are no classes at all on a Sunday and classes only go to lunch time on a Saturday.
Each day has a different focus such as legs and cardio, arms and abs, there's even a running session first thing on Saturday morning. Classes can include anything from body weight only circuits. weighted circuits, equiptment circuits, or doing a workout in pairs or groups of three. Some of the things I've used so far are battle ropes, kettle bells, dumbbells, medicine balls, weighted balls, TRX ropes, ab rollers, and there's punch bags too! I've never done the same workout twice and it seems that the sessions are always fresh and exciting and time goes by so quickly!
The workouts are pretty tough, I'm always seriously sweating just at the warm up, I've felt close to being sick a few times, and I always need to jump outside for air, but I love it! I'm always sore the next day and the day after that, and the instructors are always a good laugh.
I'd highly recommend checking this out if you're in Glasgow or Edinburgh, or a similar facility in your area. Have you ever been to Boot Camp before?
