O2 Modern Fitness Boot Camp classes utilize highly effective physical training techniques practiced by the U.S. military. Because of the nature of the exercises involved in Boot Camp, doing a boot camp class can improve one’s overall quality of life. It will help you develop core strength, agility and exercise capacity. This directly improves the body’s tolerance to stress and in turn will improve the enjoyment of leisure time. Classes may include body resistance exercises, tubing exercises, obstacle course negotiation, circuit training and basic cardio-vascular exercises. Every class is designed to build core strength, flexibility, stamina and endurance. During a Boot Camp class you could burn up to 600-800 calories within the 60-minute class time. Highly trained instructors will lead participants through a series of heart-pounding, military-style calisthenics and basic fitness exercises.
O2 Boot Camp is the ONLY Boot Camp that offers a rain or shine option. In bad weather the Boot Camp class will be held in our beautiful indoor sky-lit studio.
O2 Boot Camp is the only Boot Camp that has shower facilities. No excuses!!
