Saturday's Hull Bootcamp

Afternoon Everyone,

Early Saturday morning, the John Cammish Bootcamp lads got a wee bit of a shock. I rolled up with a new keg . . . . which weighed a bit more than the last! They soon got the hang of it though - check these pictures out.




These simple training tools could teach you a thing or two if you think weights can't get you fit


I introduced some dumbell rows which went down pretty well. This was probably due to the fact you could rest a bit more!



Make no mistake - That's a 30kg Dumbell Carl is haulin'. I personally don't even think he'd try that in the gym if there was some 70's disco music putting him off. None of that crap outside!

Last but not least: Here is a picture of Darren showing the sled whos's boss.




These are a lot harder than they look. Anyone who tells you that pulling this sled backwards a few times is easy is a liar!


This weeks Bootcamps are as usual:

Thursday Night (9th) 6pm;
Saturday Morning (11th) 8am;


Do not pass up this opportunity to see what it's like to train hard, and achieve more than you have done already. Luck favours the brave, and winners take chances. Losers sit and do nothing.

So what's it gonna be?

1st Bootcamp after Holiday in Hull

Hey guys,

Man am I aching today from the hardest Strength and Conditioning Bootcamp in Hull! It was a little low on guys showing up (probably as it was around 24C in the sun!) so I evened the numbers up and I joined in the action. I partnered up with big trucker John, and let me tell you - he is a machine! I have trained him personally for a while now, and his body composition has improved a ton, while his anerobic fitness has skyrocketed. He always puts in 100% - and then some. This shows in the Bootcamps - where he once took it upon himself to triple the keg carrying distance and shoot his heart rate to around 170bpm! (The highest it's been for a while!) Man, he looked sick as a dog after that burst.


Rich and Dave were ramping some serious effort too - especially on the push-up and jacknife combo's. Dave's in the RAF and even he was surprised at how tough this workout was - especially the sled.


I remember the sled drags being brutal, but after not doing them for about 3 weeks due to injury and holiday - it was killer! My hamstrings are aching - but in a good way.


Looking forward to tommorrows Strength and Conditioning Bootcamp, Im expecting a good 8-9 of you boys so it should be a great atmosphere again.

Did i mention that you can achieve a good amount of weight loss with high intensity exercise?

If you think you're man enough to give the Strength and Conditioning Bootcamp a try, email or ring me, or one of the guys already taking part. I'm beginning to think a lot of people are all talk and no balls.


You'll get one hell of a training session.

Hull's New Thursday Night Bootcamp

Hey Guys,

Had a good relaxing week in sunny Majorca - It was about as hot as it is back here in sweaty Hull :)

I'm hearing lot's of good things about the last bootcamp, how fun it is and how hard it feels, even though you are not constantly working at a 'moderate level' - like in a pansy aerobic class!

If you've been reading you'll know I hurt my back (doing a Bodypump class no less) and have been unable to train properly since. Well - good news. The back is feeling a lot better, and whilst it's still not 100% - I'm able to train a bit of arms and some bodyweight stuff........Can't wait to start deadlifting heavy weights again though :)

Anyhow, here's to this weeks bootcamps! A new Strength and Conditioning Bootcamp starts tomorrow night at 6pm. Same place - Picky park. Hopefully we'll have a few newcomers to prove their worth coz they can't make Saturday early Bootcamp! Be there!

Peace out!
