The Difference Between Evolution Bootcamp And Other Group Training Options

Alot of people ask me what's the difference between Bootcamp and other group training options.

Quite alot actually!

The first big difference is the nutritional support you get at Bootcamp.

Following the right nutrition plan is crucial if you want to see healthy fat loss results. Poor nutrition is like driving a Ferrari with cheap engine oil in it.You will not get very far. Here at Evolution Bootcamp we look at optimising your nutrition so that you can start to see results in just 28 days without compromising your health.

Our nutrition plan isn't just a few diet tips that you'll find on the internet, it's really more of a nutritional philosophy that's designed to get you some great fat loss results in just 28 days.

The programme is all about eating great food, drinking fresh clean water, avoiding processed food and eating organically whenever you can.

You won't find us pushing any pills, powders or supplements your way whatsover to make your results look better than they actually are - just eating the way mother nature intended you to eat, that's it!

The Second Big Difference Is The Workouts We Use

The sessions we use at Bootcamp have been tried and tested on all our private 1-2-1 clients, and with great success too.

Put simply, we know how to create the best fat loss workout in just 45 minutes.

All our workouts we use at Bootcamp are designed with metabolic disturbance in mind. This means how many calories you'll burn long AFTER the workout finishes, even when you're resting. something that you don't always get with other group training options.

Bootcamp takes place every Monday (9.30am), Tuesday (6.30pm), Wednesday (9.30am), Thursday (6.30pm) and Saturday (8.30am)in Knole Park, Sevenoaks.

It also takes place every Tuesday (6.30pm), Thursday (6.30pm) and Saturday (9.30am) in Tonbridge Park, Tonbridge.

Are YOU A Drug Addict?



Hey! How you doing?

I hope you're doing awesome? Today I wanted to talk to you about sugar and how this white stuff can not only affect your fat loss but your overall health aswell.

I wrote about this subject only a few months ago however I feel that the "sugar message" is STILL not getting through to alot of people so I'm re-visiting this.

When I talk about giving up sugar, most people 'think' they have, when this couldn't be further from the truth.

Giving up sugar goes much deeper than just cutting out cakes, biscuits and chocolates.

Hidden sugars are also found in so-called "healthy foods" aswell:

Cereals,
Salad dressings,
Soups,
Spreads,
Pre-packed sandwiches,
Pre-packed salads,
Alcoholic beverages,
Bread, etc.

If you're committed to getting your health back and are truly interested in WHY you should give sugar up (or seriously cut back on it) then just check out the staggering list below.

(Alot of people I come across seem to think that diabetes is the only health disorder linked with high sugar consumption, but, as the list below will show you, consuming too much can have huge health implications):

Unbelievable right?

Sugar is quite simply a drug and is actually more addictive than heroine, tobacco, cocaine and marijuana.

Just like any drug, it's really really hard to give up.

Here's what I think:

"Most People Are Addicted To Sugar They Just Don't Know It Yet"

The problem with sugar is that it's found it's way into most of our food and we really have to be careful about what we buy if we're to give it up completely.

It's likely that any food that's been tinned, canned or packaged has some kind of sugar in it to preserve it's lifespan. Anything ending is 'ose is basically sugar (Glucose, Sucrose, Lactose, Maltose, Galactose, Frutose, Dextrose, Mannose,
Saccharose, Levulose).

Below I've devised a 5-step plan to help you ween yourself off the nasty stuff that will not only help with your fat loss progress but your health aswell:

1) Give up sugar!

When you give up sugar (or severly cut down on your intake), it's likely that you'll experience some withdrawal symptoms. This is because you're a sugar addict and you're craving it. Go cold turkey for 2 months and try out some new and exciting sugar-free recipes. Avoid pre-packed food and focus on cooking with natural ingredients. Know where you're food and ingredients are coming from.

2) Check the labels when you go shopping

Do some detective work when you go shopping. Look for any of the hidden sugars mentioned above. Basically, anything ending in 'ose is sugar (fructose, sucrose, lactose, dextrose etc.)

3) Do Something else when your sugar craving kicks in

When a sugar craving kicks in, keep yourself busy and do something else. Go for a walk round the block or read a book for 20 minutes if you have to. This will help keep your mind off the food your craving.


4) Toughen Up!

Quit whingeing that you can't give up sugar and just DO it! If you're a "Fussy Eater" then do something about it and try out some different recipes. There's plenty of variety out there. This is your health we're talking about. When are you going to address it? When it's too late? When you have cancer? diabetes?

I'm sorry if that offended anyone but I feel it's my mission as your fat loss coach to be aware of the many health implications that sugar has on the human body.

Remember, the human body is a marvelous piece of machinery and it's not designed to eat sugar.

6) Don't Go Mad With The Fruit

Fruit is very good for us so please don't think I'm telling you that it's not! Just don't snack on it all day because at the end of the day, fruit contains fructose, which, although is sugar in it's natural form, it's still sugar and your body will see it as that. Replace with more fresh vegetables instead.


So there you have it! If you're interested in giving up sugar and want some recipes to try out that use nothing other than natural ingredients then let me know and I'll order you a cook book.

Here's to a sugar-free diet.
