Here are the top 10 reasons you NEED beginner bootcamp, whether you are a camper or a camp owner:
1.) True fitness is about longevity and having fun through movement, not quick fixes and instant gratification. If you have pain in your joints you will hate working out and will quit at some point, no matter how much weight you lose in the short-term… and then all of that weight will creep back on.
2.) If you have tissue restrictions, you will never be able to properly perform the key exercises like squats, lunges, and push-ups in a pain-free, full range of motion. Thus, you will not be able to burn fat and build muscle at optimal rates. You simply CANNOT burn lots of calories with partial range of motion movements like quarter squats and lunges!!
3.) If you have ever had pain in your joints, then you need beginner bootcamp. It’s not about pain SITE, it’s about pain SOURCE! Most nagging aches and pains in your joints are caused by tightness and restrictions in the muscles above and below the joint in question.
4.) The research shows that you want about a 1:1 high-intensity work to active recovery/regeneration ratio. In other words, if you do an intense 30-minute workout then you need to do about 30-minutes of foam rolling, stretching, and mobility/activation work to prevent over-training and accelerate recovery. Having a beginner bootcamp allows you to teach campers how to do the regeneration stuff so they can eventually do it on their own to get the most out of their regular bootcamp workouts.
5.) Overweight and out of shape people need a lower intensity fitness program to build confidence and ease them into a higher intensity program. Tissue quality, flexibility, and mobility/activation circuits will be challenging enough and will bulletproof their bodies before they enter your more advanced bootcamp drastically reducing injuries and separating your camp from the competition.
6.) The vast majority of campers are men and women that are in their 30’s and 40’s. This is the age when your joints begin to naturally lose motion and lubrication thus making tissue quality, flexibility, and mobility/activation work of the highest priority.
7.) Total fitness is more than just about being lean and strong. To be truly fit you need healthy tissue, flexibility, mobility, strength, stability, power, endurance, and balance. Beginner Bootcamp provides you with your fitness foundation to build upon and it’s a step that cannot be skipped for best results.
8.) If you or your campers can’t do the front splits… then you NEED beginner bootcamp in a heinous way!
9.) Most bootcamps are simply about beating people to a pulp and making them tired- this is not a skill – this is not an art form. The group exercise world is evolving into group personal training. It’s moving away from the random, unstructured bootcamp workouts with no method behind the madness. And every solid group personal training program starts with a beginner bootcamp. You are either part of the problem or part of the solution… I hope you move away from the dark side sooner than later.
10.) It’s the right thing to do. I always like to ask myself this:
“What would the top professionals in the fitness industry think if they walked through the doors of my facility? Would they think we’re doing the right thing?
In other words, what would Boyle, Cressey, Hartman, Robertson, Cosgrove, and Dos do?
I think you already know the answer to that
