Outdoor Bootcamp
Outdoor Bootcamp is an intensive full-body workout in the fresh air, focusing on strength, cardio, and endurance. The training combines HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training), functional exercises, and conditioning drills.
During the session, you’ll perform bodyweight exercises such as push-ups, squats, and burpees, while also using natural and free-weight training equipment like kettlebells, resistance bands, and medicine balls. Running, jumping, and explosive movements create a challenging and dynamic workout.
Each session starts with a warm-up, followed by a circuit training with different stations, and ends with a cool-down and stretching.
Thanks to the variety in exercises and intensity, the Bootcamp is suitable for both beginners and advanced participants. Train outdoors, challenge yourself, and build strength and endurance!
Period: Tuesday, 17:30 – 18:30
March 3 – June 23rd 2026
