Joining The Ranks

Along with this new found love of Fat-stripping Rocky workouts I have recently joined a lunch time "Boot Camp" run by "lifting the bar" author Andy. And I have to say, after my first session today I totally loved it! Mainly because it's an intense workout (hardly surprising seeing as it's based upon current gym darling HIIT) squeezed into 40 minutes. I had forgotten just how hard Burpees really are, but was soon painfully reminded as i was made to do set after set inbetween sprinting, jumping, crunching and pressing. Andy's Boot Camp (ABC) is definately a tough workout and the beauty of it is, everyone of all fitness levels can participate - you quite literally get out what you put in with this workout!

So if you are stuck for time but want a good workout maximising your metabolic potential, put some shorts on, go to the park and start sprinting short distances and throwing in a whole range of exercises into the mix - you'll soon be noticing the differences!

Oh and it helps if you have a sadist screaming at you to "push for 10!"
