2008 Dates:
April 10 – 15, May 1 – 6, June 12 – 17, October 9 - 14.
In contrast to health clubs and gyms, we have chosen the beautiful Algarve countryside to provide a spectacular setting for yoga, hikes and beach runs. Start the transformation of your physical, mental and emotional self with this challenging and stimulating program.
Bootcamp begins at 'weigh-in' and finishes with 'weigh-out' After a physical assessment and dietary review by our personal trainer, our team of professional instructors work together to teach encourage and push you toward achieving a new sense of self.
Each morning consists of two hours of invigorating yoga followed by a three hour hike. The afternoons are a mix of circuits, resistance training, Pilates and yoga, totaling an average of 7 hours of exercise each day.
A sensible and strict calorie-controlled food plan is followed. The diet is vegetarian and uses produce that is locally sourced and organic where possible. The chefs make the most of your calories to deliver tasty and wholesome meals that double as fuel for your action packed days.
Whatever your ultimate goals are, Bootcamp is a springboard to a lifestyle change. You'll step off the scales not only inspired, but in possession of the tools you need to maintain a healthy weight through fitness, fun and relaxation. We require a doctor's medical certificate from each guest as a minimum level of fitness is required and the program is designed to push these limits.
