The classic Castle Hill Fitness workout, Boot Camp utilizes a combo of body weight and loaded exercises to strengthen and condition your functional movement patterns. Workouts are structured around a complex circuit model that alternates muscle groups to minimize recovery time, and maximize your calorie burn.
