BOOTCAMP: GROUP HIIT WORKOUTS
8th Day Gym BootCamp workout are a type of HIIT training – bursts of intense activity alternating with intervals of lighter activity. Each class is led start to finish (an hour) by a skilled and knowledgeable coach. You can expect to do movements such as pushups, lunges, crunches, and wall balls, as well as using dumbbells, jump ropes, med balls, rowers, and stationary bikes. It’s similar in structure to our CrossFit class minus most of the skill movements and barbell lifting.
At 8th Day Gym, we pride ourselves on providing nothing but the best, and it shines through 8th Day BootCamp. We start with a mission: To help ANYONE from ANY FITNESS LEVEL reach their goals, and we accommodate everyone through the use of scalability.
Scalability is a set of small potential tweaks that allow a more advanced athlete and true beginner to do the same workout, while BOTH feeling challenged. Kinda like choosing a setting: beginner, intermediate, advanced. A trained coach will help YOU decide where YOU feel comfortable. We tailor the workout, because we want you to succeed…and you will! Come and be a part of the community!
