Eastbourne Boot Camp 13th Feb

This Saturday gone saw a bitterly cold morning and 8 keen boot campers turn up for a challenging and varied workout session.

In the last few weeks I have introduced longer sets with some lasting as much as 6 minutes of constant kettlebell work. The benefits that can be achieved through such sets include increased muscular endurance, ability to tolerate lactic acid while at the same time improving mental strength.

One of the toughest rounds of the session was also one of the most simple.
Sprints followed by partner assisted squats. I took part in this round myself and within minutes was questioning my sanity! Needless to say, everone worked incredibly hard in the bitter conditions.
