Choose a specialized boot camps such as weight loss boot camps or sports specific boot camps, in order to meet your specific goal.

A medical clearance and private fitness assessment should be mandatory. This time will give you and opportunity to ask the instructor any questions, and address any concerns you may have before beginning.

TIP 4. A good boot camp instructor will never ask you to ignore injuries or bodily pains and should answer all your questions. Do not simply follow your instructor with out doing your own research. Customarily, in military style boot camps your body is subjected to the worst of conditions and drug through harsh workouts. Today, most people are looking for something much more gently than that and for that reason never forcing you to pull your body beyond its limit.

During this time make sure to talk to others and find out as much as you can from the instructor and existing members and feel free to discuss their results.
