Fitness Boot Camp Brisbane

The instructor, camouflage cap pulled low over her eyes, squints into the early morning sun; “Squad! Attention! Stand up straight! Say Here when your name is called!” The recruits respond promptly, knowing the likely consequences of any frivolity.

What are we doing at 5.45am, standing at attention in a city park, waiting for orders? We don’t do enough exercise; we eat badly, drink too much, and spend our days frantically juggling work, family and other commitments. So why do we want to make our lives more stressful by participating in an exercise class based on Military Boot Camps? A class where we have to get up at 5am, and run around in the semi dark holding car tyres above our heads? A class suitable only for masochists who enjoy being yelled at; or for those who think a quick 50km cycle before breakfast is a great way to start the day?

Well, no. Boot Camps are not only for those who have a need to suffer, or for ultra fit elite sports people. Boot Camps are suitable for most people who want to ramp up their fitness routine, for those who are finding that the gym and cardio are just not cutting it any more. The reason that Boot Camps have been so popular since their “invention” in 1991 is that they work! Boot Camps get RESULTS, and they get them FAST…and that’s why people keep coming back for more.

For example, the Executive Results Boot Camps started in 2004, and some regulars have been coming since the beginning! Many like the Boot Camp format because unlike a gym routine or regular running route, Boot Camps are always different. For example, Robert, a long time Boot Camp recruit, who, in the real army, would have been promoted long ago; said “I love the freshness of Boot Camps, you never know what to expect. Sometimes we turn up, and find The Commando waiting for us; he’s a professional kick boxing trainer…and one scary guy!”
