Corporate Fitness Boot Camps Featuring Workout Muse Interval Training Music
By Greg Justice, MA
Corporate Boot Camps are getting a lot of attention these days, with good reason. On a weekly basis I get questions from trainers about the best way to break into the corporate market. There are several considerations when beginning, so I’ll focus on them one by one. This blog post will compare the regular boot camp environment with a corporate boot camp environment.
Regular boot camps are usually run outside in a park, or a big open gym area where the instructor can yell, scream and motivate with reckless abandon. If you tried that in a corporate setting, you would probably get thrown out before your first “Drop and give me 20” command. Don’t get me wrong, you still have to bring the same energy, passion and enthusiasm; it just has to be done in a controlled manner.
Another environmental consideration is time. In a regular boot camp, you ask your boot campers to arrive early and participate in pre-warm up and socializing. Then, you take them through a 45 – 60 minute workout and encourage them to stick around for more socializing. This can take up to two hours out of their day. If you tried that in a corporate setting, you would be taking up to 25% of their ‘9 to 5’ day. The boss wouldn’t be very happy about that. That’s why it is very important to get in, get out and let them get back to work.
My recommendation in a corporate environment is a 30 min. program that consists of a five minute warm up, 20 min. H.I.I.T. program using the Workout Muse audio interval training system and a five minute cool down.
