Body Sculpt
Tone up at boot camp with BODY sculpt
The BODY sculpt programme is the ultimate way to condition your core! It will help you tone up muscle, improve body shape and muscle definition, increase metabolic rate so you can burn more calories, and generally make you look and feel leaner - in other words, you will lose body fat and gain body tone! BODY sculpt is mainly for people who are already at a healthy weight and looking to improve the look, shape and composition of their body.
If you have recently lost weight and are now wondering how to get the tone back - BODY sculpt may also be for you. It is also a suitable programme for those wishing to build muscle mass. Call us to chat though your particular needs with one of the Body Boot Camp team.
The BODY sculpt itinerary concentrates on training sessions involving high intensity and strength and resistance training (as illustrated in the diagram below). You will receive specialist advice from a personal trainer who is highly qualified in strength and resistance training and whose vast experience will help you achieve a leaner, fitter body. Whatever your objectives, the BODY sculpt itinerary will maximise your results and help you see real changes in just one week, with exercises focussing on target areas such as abs and arms, legs and bum, helping to deliver results and tone your body to create the shape you want to see.
While the BODY sculpt group will spend a large amount of time doing resistance training, Body Boot Camp ensures the training sessions are varied and inspiring by programming different circuits, influenced by boxing, martial arts, military fitness and so on. Also, BODY sculpt members will join the Body fit group for some high intensity sessions in order to improve cardiovascular fitness, and will take part in some whole group sessions including low intensity training sessions in order to allow your body time to recover while continuing to train and burn calories.
Strength and Resistance Training
In these sessions the BODY sculpt client will gain core stability and improve core conditioning - in other words, tone up. This training will take the form of a variety of circuits and tabata sessions and will be a key element in driving BODY sculpt clients towards their goals. Even when BODY sculpt clients are doing high intensity cardiovascular training, the BODY sculpt coach will tailor these sessions to derive maximum benefit in terms of toning, sculpting or building muscle, depending on individual objectives. Clients soon realise that a run is not just a run....if there are benches en route, there will most definitely be some dips to do!!!!
High Intensity Training
Hard training sessions where each individual is working at their maximum level. The biggest improvements in stamina, cardiovascular health and energy expenditure result from this type of training. Clients taking part in these sessions should ideally have been exercising frequently before attending Body Boot Camp because participating in too much high intensity exercise if you have been leading a mostly sedentary lifestyle can increase the risk of injury. We are happy to discuss any concerns with clients before booking to ensure the course and level of exercise is suitable. While we push our clients to the full, we don't want anyone working at a level beyond their abilities where they risk injury. High intensity sessions will promote burning calories, losing body fat and gaining muscle tone in BODY sculpt clients.
Low Intensity Training
This type of training includes sessions such as our long walk over the Pentland Hills, and will give the BODY sculpt clients' bodies time to recover while still burning calories. The hilly parts of the walk will continue to improve fitness levels.
