What to expect in a one week stay
From the minute you arrive, each minute is used to the max. From the gracious welcome from the courteous professional staff, followed by your measurements being taken, body analysis and a tour of the camp. Not a moment passes without you feeling pampered and catered to, with helpful staff at hand to meet any need.
Then, on to a welcome workout. Dinnertime follows, with a chance to meet your other squad team members, with a maximum of 30 in the camp at any time, split into teams according to fitness levels.
- Early to bed, in order to rise bright and early for a sunrise workout and farm hike through the beautiful surroundings.
- A spinning or body-weighted circuit will help you work up an appetite for a healthy breakfast.
- The typical day would be a mix of activities like metabolism conditioning, boxercise, body combat, battlefield laser laser-tag, and truly grueling signature obstacle courses. All interspersed with enjoyable workshops on nutrition and other related topics, cookery classes and more chilled types of stretching and relaxation exercises.
- Post-dinner hours are for personal time, after the luxurious option of indulging in a sauna, Jacuzzi or massage.
- After that, the odds are that you will be happy to tumble into bed and fall asleep the second your head hits that pillow.
Program options
Self-improvement is an ongoing process, and boot camp stays cover periods ranging from day-use up to four weeks, with tailored and corporate plans available on request.
Graduation day and that magical transformation!
