I turn up to find our
instructor, decked out in camouflage cargo pants and I’m instantly worried. In
front of him lies two buckets of bib, one blue one red. As I had registered for
a free trial I hand in my form and am directed to the tub of blue bibs (blue is
for beginner/average fitness levels).
We began with a warm up
which consisted of some jogging and loosing the limbs... so far so good. After about 10 minutes the running began. Not
being an avid fan of running I was not looking forward to this one bit. I
surprised myself. In pairs, one of us ran to the top of a mound and back 3
times whilst our partner did continuous sit-ups until it was our turn to swap.
We repeated this exercise 3 times changing the sit-ups to press up and then
burpees!! I hate burps…
The rest of the session
included lots of partner/team exercises and some more of the dreaded running
but the time just flew by. Before I knew it we were warming down with a good
stretch session. I was surprised by how much I had enjoyed myself and my
adrenalin was pumping. Although there was a group of around 20 people in the
class, it felt like a lot more personal than I expected.
Overall I thought it was a
fantastic, really fun workout which is suited to all fitness levels and really
pushes you that extra bit.
Best bit – the serious
lactic acid burn the next day but it was completely worth it
Worst bit – muddy hands and
clothes
Time – 1 Hour
Overall – 8/10
