Boot Camp

If you are looking for weight loss, to get fitter or to get faster then The Fitness Unit BOOTCAMP is for you! Our BOOTCAMPS are headed up by Ex Military staff including 2 Ex Army Physical Training Instructors.

We run BOOTCAMP all year round, whatever the weather, in local parks, open areas or at the beach so that you maintain continuity in your training. Each Bootcamp is one hour of Military Style training designed to challenge all aspects of your health and fitness.

If you are looking for a quick fix then BOOTCAMP can help you see rapid results, but it is also our aim is to educate you into maintaining a long term, healthy lifestyle.

The Fitness Unit have been successfully running our BOOTCAMP Classes since 2007 and still have clients who have trained with us all this time so we must be doing something right!

We are still the only BOOTCAMP that is run by experienced ex Military Staff, and have the full backing of the local Council to run our BOOTCAMPS outdoors in Suffolk all year round.

The Fitness Unit BOOTCAMP is much more than an Outdoor Fitness Class. We arrange activity weekends away, enter lots of races including the local Race For Life as well as supporting local charities with fundraising events.

We even go for breakfast after the first Sunday BOOTCAMP of the month. (Healthy of Course!)
The Fitness Unit BOOTCAMP is a way of life, you will make friends, have fun and may even miss it when you are away!
