The hectic modern day lifestyle takes a toll on our health. We often fail to eat healthy, forget to exercise and do not get enough sleep. The result is conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, obesity etc leading to cardiac and a plethora of other health problems. Thus staying slim and fit should be the goal of everyone. But while people have become more fitness conscious in recent years they do not always find the right path to fitness.
They enroll into gyms and fancy yoga studios without much idea about how to gain fitness. Even then people often miss gym days due to work commitments. They stop eating food and divert to supplements. But often even after spending a lot of money they do not get the desired result. What they actually need is a properly guided start to their quest to fitness. If you are looking to transform yourself into a fitter, healthier person, it may be time for going to a fitness holiday at a residential fitness camp. These fitness establishments are known in many names, live-in fitness camp, body transformation camp/ makeover camp, fitness retreat and perhaps the most popular term, fitness boot camp.
A residential fitness boot camp is where a person stays for certain duration, generally a week or so, (longer and shorter durations are also available) and gets involved in a lot of physical activities that help them to lose fat and improve fitness. There are certain aspects that are common to any good fitness boot camp. These are as follows-
• These camps are generally set in idyllic, nature surrounded locations near home or overseas. This is because natural surroundings help in focus and concentration.
• The camp will have many expert instructors specializing in lot of activities like hiking, core training, military training, strength and conditioning and various sports. In short, there is something for everyone.
• The activities are always carried out in groups. This way the participants can inspire and co-operate with one another and learn teamwork.
• Participants are provided luxury accommodation and nutritious food so that after a hard day’s work, they can relax and get refreshed.
• Often seminars and counseling sessions are held to make people more aware and inspired about health and fitness.
Many of these camps also offer different packages at different prices so that everyone can pick one according to their budgets. But one needs to be careful about the camp they choose. There are camps that will make tall promises and take your money but do not have adequate infrastructure/ facilities.
If you are wondering why you should go to a fitness boot camp instead of a gym, then here are the reasons. A stay at a fitness camp will help you to reach a certain level of fitness that you can follow up later at a gym. A proper fitness camp will impart a lot of vital information that will help you in the long run and since you are in a group, there is no chance of you getting lethargic. So enroll in a fitness boot camp and start your journey towards a fitter future.
