THE SAN DIEGO CORE FITNESS PHILOSOPHY
Welcome to San Diego Core Fitness Boot Camp & Personal Nutrition program.
Our mission is to give everyone access to their active passion. We will bring out the athlete in you by providing the best exercises in the best workout format.
Our Boot Camps have been carefully designed to compliment each other and offer full body workouts with an emphasize on multiple energy systems (such as phosphagen, glocolytic, and aerobic).
To achieve this we incorporate High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), Sprint Intervals, Plyometrics (Plyo), Calisthenics, Pilates, Periodization, Integrated Functional Training and Yoga into a full body systems workout.
Every boot camp we offer is carefully crafted to achieve a unique health goal. Some are intended to burn fat to improve body composition. Others are designed to train your heart to decrease your resting heart rate, increase your heart recovery rate, and improve cardiovascular capacity, while others are intended to improve overall athleticism and agility.
Here are some of our more popular boot camps:
BeST Boot Camp
BeST stands for BioEnergetic Systems Training Boot Camp. Each BeST Boot Camp begins with ultra high intensity intervals of 15 seconds in duration that are desinged to exhaust your phosphagen system (immediate supplies of energy), then we perform three diferent Tabata Intervals to completely burn through your glycolytic system (burning all the stored carbohydrates in your liver and muscles) and then increasing the duration of the intervals and decreasing the intensity to target fat. Our BeST Boot Camp stems from years of study and refinement that gives you one of the most effective workouts you can ever have.
One of our most all time popular boot camps, similar to our BeST Boot Camp but with more of an emphasis on longer duration aerobic training. Every exercise is multi-planar and multi-joint, meaning we work a lot of muscles at once and with very few breaks in between. Training that isolates muscles, such as bicep curls, utilizes very little energy and burns very few calories, by engaging many muscles in complex movements we burn the maximum number of calories that you can in a workout. It may not be a BeST Boot Camp but it is one of the best boot camps you can do.
Pure Core Boot Camp
Your core is the foundation of your health and body. Most people think that their core is their abs but in fact your abs are a very small part of it. Your core begins with your spine, moves down to your lumbo hip complex, glutes, hamstrings then back up to your transverse abdominals, lower and upper abdominals, and your obliques. Our Pure Core Boot Camps will build the foundation of your health one plank, one bridge, and one kettle bell swing at a time.
Allterra Boot Camp
This is a unique boot camp in which we jog from location to location in the park utilizing different manmade and natural features to really mix up the exercises we perform. We often include Hi/Lo Intervals, Partner Relays, Tabata Intervals, and standard HIIT. Allterra Boot Camps are a great way to get your workout in if you don't like to sit in one place for too long.
Our Personal Nutrition Program is a perfect compliment to both our boot camps and personal training programs or a great way to get started before you get into your exercise component. Nutrition is equally as important to reaching your health goals as is training. Everyone has their own nutritional needs, no one diet fits all and that is why our Holistic and Clinical Nutritionist Rachel, can get you dialed into the nutrition program that suits you perfectly.

Our HIIT Intervals are the best exercises science has to offer:
Tabata Intervals: 20/10-Most efficient for improving both strength and aerobic capacity.
Standard Intervals: 30/10-Best exercise for aerobic conditioning during sprints and full body workouts.
Continuous Intervals: 30/30 or 60/60-Our answer to an incredible cardio experience that also leaves your muscles in full sculpt mode.
Plus many others that create diversity in our workouts as well as constant muscle confusion and adaptation.
Each Boot Camp has a very accurate caloric expenditure listed next to it's title. This is carefully calculated by monitoring each workout with a Polar FT7 Heart Rate Monitor on individuals of varying abilities, as well as comparing our findings to peer reviewed scientific data relating to HIIT Training, Running, Calisthenics and other exercise routines that are pertinent to our boot camps.
We always encourage you to do what you can and not overwork yourself. We will push you just past your comfort zone but never far enough to injury you. We encourage you to communicate with your instructor any concerns or unexpected pain and we will always do our best to adapt to your needs.
Thank you for your interest in our program.
