Get Your Butt Kicked: Phenomenal Fitness Bodies Boot Camp

I recently attended this phenomenal fitness boot camp held by personal trainer Drew Miller. Boy did I get my butt kicked. The class consisted of 6 people and based on circuit training. For those that don't know what circuit training is, its a combination of high-intensity aerobics and resistance training designed to target fat loss, muscle building and heart-lung fitness. In this program, a "circuit" was the completion of 6 exercises (each performed at 1 minute intervals to your maximum potential) When one circuit is complete, you begin the first exercise again for another circuit. (6 exercises at 1 minute intervals. Repeated 4 times)

Now these weren't just any stations or exercises, they were hardcore leg, butt and hamstring exercises that worked every muscle in your lower body. Including the ones I didn't know I had. Man was it awesome! There were dead lifts, reversed lunges, kettle bell exercises and butt blasting moves that really had Drew listening to us exhale and inhale. (He wants to hear everyone breath or else you might be adding double time for everyone else in the class) For the first time, I actually left a class feeling like I had the best leg workout ever. The best part was that Drew took the time with each individual correcting form and pushing each person to their maximum. When you felt like you couldn't do anymore, he would be right there in front of you (with eyes at the back of is head) pushing you through the last 20 seconds. With his help, you end up pushing yourself beyond your limit and it's the best feeling. Well not exactly in the moment. Basically, it felt like a one on one session with a personal trainer.

The objective of the Phenomenal Fitness Bodies is to provide an intense, dynamic and challenging group of exercises in a boot camp format. Each program is designed to promote strength, flexibility, endurance & stamina, power, proper nutrition, as well as utilizing our abilities of agility, balance and speed. For anyone looking to build strength, tone, melt away excess body fat or improve physical performance, I would highly recommend Phenomenal Fitness Bodies to complement any nutrition/health regime you are following. After all, whats "healthy" without exercise.

Graduating with a sociology degree from York University, Drew has been able to utilize his strength in social skills as well as his continuing education in the health and fitness industry to spread the awareness and effectiveness of living an active and healthy lifestyle.
