5 of the best local bootcamps
If you’re short of time (or holiday
allowance) indoor bootcamps rule. Here are our pick of the best in the local
area...
1. Frame
The studio has bootcamps to suit every need
that are all about flexibility and variety of classes. There’s no long-term
commitment or contracts - you just pick which bootcamp floats your boat the
most (one for improving fitness, for example, or one for long, lean limbs) and
the package includes 16 classes. We especially love the emergency bootcamp for
the time-poor and the ‘dance off’ - for those who would ‘rather shimmy than
squat.’new.moveyourframe.com
2. Bootcamp Pilates
Using state-of-the-art reformer machines,
classes are designed to combine a cardiovascular workout with deep core
strengthening for the ultimate lean physique. There are now four studios
including the one in Old Street and your first session is free.

3. Boom! Cycle
Redefining indoor cycling, this studio is
about getting fit in a motivational and fun space as opposed to a soulless gym.
The aim is to have fun and enjoy the music so much you forget you’re working
out. You burn up to a whopping 700 calories in 45 minutes and for a more
‘bootcamp’ challenge, try the two hour ride. You can also get 50% off your fi
rst session.boommybody.com
4. Matt roberts
The training centres are now running a
special Two Week Blitz programme to help members get in shape for the summer.
Designed to maximise results in a short amount of time, the package includes 10
personal training sessions and a copy of Matt’s latest book which includes a
full diet plan and recipes.mattroberts.co.uk
5. Gavin walsh bootcamp
This programme comes with a money-back
guarantee, claiming to get the best out of its campers. Training in small
groups of 15, the emphasis is on the psychology of motivation as much as the
exercise itself. Sign up to this bootcamp to drop a dress size and see your
metabolism skyrocket. thebootcamp.co.uk
3 tips for rapid fat loss from matt Roberts
1. Eat Small Meals at Regular Intervals.
Rather than eating three large meals, try
to eat five-seven smaller meals and snacks throughout the day. This will help
you regulate your hunger and provide a steady flow of energy, meaning you will
not be so tempted to start snacking.
2. Drink Water or Green Tea.
Fruit juice and fizzy drinks are laden with
calories which will promote fat storage; while they will provide you with a
short-term burst of energy, in the long-term they will leave you feeling tired
and lethargic. Keeping hydrated by consuming enough water helps prevent hunger
pangs and burns fat more efficiently, whilst consuming green tea has an added
advantage of enhancing your metabolism - making you burn more fat at rest.
3. Bodyweight exercise can get results.
Squats, lunges and press-ups from the knees
are all great exercises for getting in shape. Not only this- they are a great
starting point for the inexperienced exerciser or if you are just getting back
in to a routine.Matt Roberts Personal Training offer bespoke personal training
