This workout is a slight variation from the one personal trainer and Nutrishop owner Amy Jo Palmquest led in Olympia, WA this summer for Strong Camp. To do it yourself, we suggest you head outdoors with a partner (or two) who will help you stay motivated. Hardcore bootcamp-style workouts will boost your cardio strength, fire up your metabolism and sizzle some serious calories. This workout is not for the faint of heart, but it is great for anyone craving a great sweat sesh. Your goal is to work towards doing the entire workout.
