Summer Body Boot Camp Program

Build muscle, lose fat, and improve your cardiovascular health.

For many of us, warm summer months are the perfect motivation to work out. Whether your goal is to lose weight, build muscle, or maintain a sculpted physique, the summer months are the perfect time to get started.

This summer body program is a no-weights boot camp that will kick your routine up a notch. You will perform five moves per day, plus cardio three times a week. Cycle through the moves with limited short breaks to get the most out of your workout. Build muscle, lose fat, and improve your cardiovascular health with one simple plan.

Because the workout requires no weights or fancy equipments, you can do it almost anywhere. If you don’t have access to a gym, you can go outside or work out in any room with ample space. For the cardio portion of the program, instead of running on a treadmill, you can run outside at about a 11-12 min per mile pace.

What You’ll Need: A gym timer (Gymboss is a free-to-download app), mat, and a bench or chair

What to Do: Each week, you will have a set of five moves. Set your gym timer for 50 seconds of exercise and 10 seconds of rest. Cycle through all the moves in order. Rest for 30-60 seconds and repeat.

Beginners: 3 cycles
Intermediate: 5 cycles
Advanced: 7 cycles

Below, you’ll find videos showing how to perform each move. It’s important to use proper form as this can help prevent injuries.
