WHAT IS BEST BODY BOOTCAMP?

Best Body Bootcamp is a 4 week goal-oriented, fitness program geared to help you achieve your best body. Our program is for people who are looking for a serious change in their workout routines or for those who need a jump start to their fitness program.

Best Body Bootcamp is outdoors in the spring and summer months, getting you out of the gym and enjoying Toronto's natural parks! Once the cold weather hits, in the fall and winter months, we move indoors.

Our workouts combine cardio intervals (sprints, stairs, sports drills, obstacle courses, plyometrics, kick boxing), resistance training (using resistance bands and body weight exercises), abdominal exercises and core and stability training (Yoga & Pilates based exercises) into fun and effective workouts.

We also divide up muscle groups, so that you are effectively challenging different muscles during every class.

WHAT IS OUR WORKOUT PHILOSOPHY?

Best Body Bootcamp believes in functional training, which means concentrating on exercises that will not only help you build strength, but also stability.

Many gyms and personal training programs concentrate on the use of machines. However, unlike the human body, machines are created to be stable and move in one plane of motion, only focusing on the concentric (force generating) part of movement. We move in 3 planes, and live in an unstable environment, therefore we need to be able to stabilize in order to produce or reduce movement during everyday life activities. Our dynamic workouts take into account this principle and are designed around the concept of functional training.

WHAT TO EXPECT?

Although we have ‘boot camp’ in our name, don’t worry, we’re not an army style bootcamp - we don’t yell or ridicule! At Best Body Bootcamp members are encouraged, motivated and educated.

You will experience fun and innovative workouts that will keep you challenged and ensure that you’re never bored. Since variety is key to achieving results, each and every workout is different. You will work hard and see real results!

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?

Men & Women of all fitness levels are welcome to join the Best Body Bootcamp. We are here to support you and to ensure that everyone feels they are part of the team. Our initial assessment will allow us to gauge your fitness level and customize your exercise program to ensure each and every workout is challenging and safe. The instructors will show variations of most of the exercises to make sure that you are always pushing yourself, but within your own level of fitness. As the program progresses and you build strength you may find that you are able to move on to more difficult variations, level of intensity and reps.

Members are encouraged to listen to their bodies and work at their personal level and pace, allowing even members with minor injuries to participate.
