So, you\u2019ve decided to get your butt into gear and start leading a healthy lifestyle. A great way to quickly build up your overall fitness is with bootcamp classes. (If you want to become a bootcamp instructor, there are even online bootcamp courses<\/a> available if you don\u2019t like leaving the house!) You don\u2019t want to announce that you\u2019re a newbie by arriving in the wrong threads to your first session, so here\u2019s what you should wear to a bootcamp class<\/a>:<\/p>\n

What You\u2019ll Be Doing<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Bootcamp classes of any variety will have you moving in ways you never thought possible. There\u2019ll be lifting of weights, climbing of steps, sprinting, jogging, and push-ups for days. It all depends on your bootcamp class instructor so be sure to find out from them the types of exercises you\u2019ll be doing and what type of clothing they\u2019d recommend.<\/p>\n

What You Should Wear<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If you\u2019d prefer to take our word for it, here\u2019s what we\u2019d recommend wearing to bootcamp classes \u2013 as well as a few handy accessories that are sure to improve your experience:<\/p>\n

No Baggy Clothing<\/strong><\/h2>\n

You want to be as agile as possible, so consider wearing tight-fitting clothing to minimise drag and allow you to move freely. Also, you\u2019re going to sweat, so wear a vest if you\u2019re comfortable with it. This will also allow your arms freedom to move.<\/p>\n

Invest in Shoes<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Any runner<\/a> will tell you that it doesn\u2019t pay to go in cheap when buying new shoes for exercise. High-end athletic shoes offer the added durability and foot support that your feet will thank you for after a few bootcamp classes.<\/p>\n

Must-Haves<\/strong><\/h2>\n

New to social exercising? Golden rule number one: Don\u2019t forget your sweat towel! You\u2019ll want to take one that\u2019s bigger than a hand towel but not as big as a bath towel. Another must-have bootcamp class addition is a decent water<\/a> bottle of between 500ml and 2 litres.<\/p>\n

Handy Accessories:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re taking your bootcamping seriously, consider investing in a fitness tracking watch (FitBit, Garmin, etc.) to track your steps. Got a friend that might also want to improve their health and wellness? Bring them along too so you don\u2019t have to feel like the new kid in school!<\/p>\n
