This High intensity boot camp style class will test your heart in more ways than one. Each class will be a series of circuits designed to challenge both your strength and your endurance. With a few simple tools, pull-up bars, parallel bars, TRX, benches and most importantly your own body you will have a fun and dynamic workout. Classes will start off with a dynamic warm-up with mobility and agility drills aimed at preparing you for the workout to come. The workout itself will be short, intense and efficient. Some days will be more leg focused, others more upper body, all will be cardio intensive with few rest periods. All levels are welcomed as you will go at your own pace.
