Adventure's certified trainers constantly challenge participants to achieve higher levels of fitness, and the one-hour classes take workouteers through a variable variety of self-slimming, calorie-crushing exercises that might include core conditioning, short-distance running, jumping rope, obstacle courses, sport yoga, Pilates, and a few last-minute surprise twists, such as discovering that boot camp was all a dream.
Michigan’s Adventure Boot Camp recommends that you bring running shoes, an exercise mat, a set of 8–12 lb. hand weights, an insult-spewing parrot to provide extra motivation, and a water bottle. Aspiring perspirers can check class availability and register for sessions via the website. Groupon purchasers will attend one week from any of the four-week camps provided throughout the year. It is recommended that participants attend one of the first two weeks in the program, as classes become progressively harder throughout the course.

Michigan's Adventure Boot Camp for Women
Each boot camp spans four weeks of exercise, with classes held up to five days a week. Classes might meet indoors or out, depending on which of the nine locations a client chooses to attend, but the regimen of exercise remains the same. Trainers cook up new routines daily, which might include fitness kickboxing, jump-roping, obstacle courses, or sport yoga, in which the class plays a scrimmage using the first student who manages to contort themselves into the shape of a football.
