Here are answers to the most frequently asked questions about Oxygen “Four Weeks To Freedom” Boot Camp:
What exactly is the Oxygen “Four Weeks to Freedom” Boot Camp?
Our Boot Camp is a four-week program held outdoors (if there’s inclement weather, we make some adjustments) that provides instruction on fitness and nutrition, with generous amounts of motivation and fun!
Boot Camp consists of a structured and balanced exercise program incorporating boxing for fitness, strength training, core stability and abdominal training, interval based walk/jog/runs and flexibility. The goal is to get you moving, elevate your heart rate and build lean muscle so your body burns twice as much fat.
NOTE: Ladies, do not worry – you will not get “bulky”. Muscle is more compact and smaller than fat. Also, it’s much more shapely. Replacing fat with muscle will make you smaller, tighter and firmer…your dress size will go down, not up!
Each day, camp will be one hour in length starting at 6:00am and ending at 7:00am.
What if I’m not in very good shape?
If you’re not in very good shape, we’ll start you slow (there will be others in the same boat, so you won’t be left behind), but work you up to speed more quickly than you can probably imagine right now. The amazing thing about the human body is how it adapts quickly to proper stimulus. We will SAFELY challenge you – never more so than you can handle. With years of experience working with people of all ages and fitness levels, we have this down to a science.
Just know that you are welcome at Oxygen Boot Camp regardless of your level of fitness, and you will not feel out of place, even if you think of yourself now as being totally out of shape. You are not alone. Help is here, both from us (your Trainers) and the friendly, caring support you will receive from the other Campers. We work as a team, inspiring and being inspired, and everybody wins!
Where is the location we will meet?
We meet at Hindmarsh Park, right next to the Amphitheatre Stage.
How often will we meet for Boot Camp?
You and the other Campers will meet with us five days a week, Monday to Friday. Boot Camp will last for one full hour, including warm-up and cool-down.
All that we ask is that you arrive on time and ready to go. Boot Camp starts promptly at 6:00am.
What should I bring with me to Boot Camp?
Besides comfortable clothing you can exercise in, the most important thing for you to bring is a positive, can-do attitude and the willingness and desire to have fun with other people just like you!
The social element of Boot Camp is a vital part of your success. The camaraderie and support is tremendous. Everyone works together as a team, inspiring and being inspired.
Other things to bring: Your own towel and a water bottle.
Will the exercises I do at Boot Camp make me sore?
It’s completely normal to feel some soreness for the first few days of camp. You are moving and using muscles in ways you probably have not for some time, maybe ever. We make sure to warm you up properly, cool you down right, and stretch, stretch, stretch. And that alleviates much of the soreness, but still, some soreness is normal. And frankly, the mild soreness lets you know you’re doing great work!
What if I just want to try the camp before I commit to full registration?
You are certainly welcome to do that. We offer a “try-before-you-buy” option so you can take a FREE week of classes. I hope you can see we make this very fair for anyone to try before they buy, and all we ask is that you show up and give it a go!
Do you have a refund policy?
Yes, here are the details:
- If you are unable to attend camp due to circumstances out of your control, we will give you a full refund if you notify us at least 48 hours prior to your session start date.
- If you are unable to attend camp due to circumstances out of your control, and notify us less than 48 hours prior to your session start date, we will provide you with a refund less $50.00 cancellation fee (because we are not able to give your spot to someone else at this late date).
- If we are notified of your inability to attend after your session begins, we can give you a credit towards another boot camp at a later date.
What happens when the 4-week camp ends?
That’s entirely up to you. If you’d like, you can enrol in the next camp and keep the progress going. Most people will choose this option after seeing just how much fun this is, how motivational and supportive the environment is, and how comparatively inexpensive it is for the value you get. Nothing can compare to Oxygen Boot Camp when it comes to getting you the life-changing, body-transforming results you want, in the shortest period of time.
Alternatively you can become an Oxygen Member (which we highly recommend) and sign up for a 3-12 month commitment which allows you to attend both morning and evening sessions. The cost is significantly reduced for committing to your training long term.
