Using Your Own Body as a Weight at Body Envy Boot Camp


Have you been working on your cardio, jogging on treadmills and using other various equipment but haven’t seen any major changes in the way your body looks?  Well, if you are in the same boat, know that you aren’t the only one, it happens all the time.  Cardio is however beneficial to you heart and will aid in keeping it healthy, but you won’t get the toned look that women are looking for by doing cardio alone.  Ultimately you will probably reach a plateau, especially if you use the same equipment that your body adjusts too without any challenges.

At one of Body Envy Boot Camps for Women, the fitness trainers incorporate body weight circuits and intervals at each session to ensure major fat blasting and muscle definition exercises. Using your own body as a weight helps in a short amount of time to work every single muscle in your body. Your body has to work hard to change into different positions in a constant state of motion.  If you are working your upper and lower body at the same time you will not only be blasting away calories but toning all the muscles as well in a shorter amount of time. Plus, it’s a natural way to train your body to get fit in a hurry.

The key to burning fat is to speed up your metabolism and by doing body weight exercises such as squat thrusts, burpees, and push-ups for example, it revs up the metabolism into overdrive.  When you combine strenuous body weight exercises into your routine, your body doesn’t know how much weight it’s lifting. It just knows that it has to work hard under the stressful conditions. Gilbert Personal trainers know that when you add some strength training with weights as well as using body weight exercises, women will reach results fast.

In a session at Body Envy Boot Camp for Women you’ll be sure to find body weight exercises in addition to some weights and cardio to have women looking and feeling their best like never before. No wonder boot camp has women coming back again for more.
