It’s not politically correct for me to point out the short-comings of my competition, but I’ll do it anyway because I don’t like seeing honest consumers wasting their hard-earned money on poor quality exercise programs.
The reason why practically 100% of personal trainers think boot camp programs are a joke is because nearly 100% of boot camp programs are currently being run by uncertified instructors who have no business teaching people about fitness.
The franchised boot camp company promotes their program as producing “accelerated results”. Great, but accelerated results towards what, exactly? Certainly not fat loss. Here’s what they claim you will be doing during their program:
- Strength Training
- Drills
- Agility Training
- Calisthenics
- Obstacle Courses
- Yoga
- Pilates
- Circuit Training
- Ultimate
- Jogging
- Power Walking
That’s a big list, with lots of activities that have absolutely no business being in a program marketed as producing “accelerated results”, unless the result is mastery of random activities that will NOT produce fat loss.
I’ll revise the list, eliminating the activities that aren’t very conducive towards fat loss:
- Strength Training
- Calisthenics
- Circuit Training
Add high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to the list, and you have yourself an accelerated fat loss program.
Do your homework before you spend a dime on a boot camp program in Vancouver. Most programs are a complete waste of your time, effort, and money; and many of them will put your safety at risk by sticking you in a ridiculously large group (30 to 40+ people per class) led by an uncertified and unqualified instructor.
