Weight Loss Boot Camps in South Carolina

As the name suggests, weight loss boot camps are camps that help participants lose excess weight through diet and/or exercise in a rigorous military-style program. Long-term camps tend to be extended-stay camps, while short-term camps are often day camps where participants meet a few days per week for a limited period of time. Columbia Fitness Weight Loss Boot Camp, Aiken Weight Loss Boot Camp and Hilton Head Health are three such camps in South Carolina.

Women in the program engage in a mix of cardiovascular, endurance and strength training exercises. The camp lasts for four weeks, though participants meet for only 60 minutes, three times per week. Columbia Fitness Boot Camp is led by Michael Thomas, a certified personal trainer.
