Do I need to be fit to do Boot Camp?

Of course not, that's why you are coming to Fitness 02. On day one of the course all recruits participate in a basic fitness assessment, to determine individual fitness levels and personal goals. If you are unsure of your fitness levels, please check out our Re-Fit group exercise course.

What sort of results will I get?

The two most apparent results of Bootcamp are fat loss and increased cardiovascular fitness. Other benefits of this training regime include increased muscle tone, improved muscular strength, increased endurance and agility, and improvements in self esteem and confidence.

What makes Fitness 02’s Bootcamps different to other fitness programs?

There are a number of major differences.  Firstly, the owners and founders of Fitness 02 between them have ex-military and professional kickboxing experience, meaning that they have the education and qualifications to design effective programmes.  Instructor will push you to achieve, but will not shout or belittle you - leave that for the movies.

We encourage every recruit to manage their own personal safety by wearing suitable exercise clothing and shoes, and to maintain levels of hydration during exercise. Each recruit is required to complete a Health Questionnaire and where necessary will be advised to obtain medical clearance prior to commencement. Please note that our instructors can prevent you from participating if they suspect any activity will be unsafe for your health and wellbeing.

Who are the instructors?

All Bootcamp instructors are qualified fitness professionals with the required fitness industry recognition and are known as competent providers of the Bootcamp Training programme.

If I miss a session can I make it up in another month?

The Bootcamp programme is a month by month programme and as a policy make up sessions are not permitted.  If there are exceptional circumstances, this can be discussed with a Fitness O2 representative.
