Village Bootcamp: why intervals work, ideas for you

I lead a free bootcamp-style workout Tuesday nights at Highland Oaks Park in McFarland, Wis. If you're in the neighborhood, please join us. Bring water, a blanket or mat & small weights or bands if you have them.

Thanks Melissa for asking the first question at bootcamp. She wants to know, what to eat post-workout? Madison, Wis.-based trainer Dustin Maher shares his pre- and post-nutrition ideas here. You'll learn why protein & simple sugars are important post-workout. And consider his many bootcamp offerings, one at McDaniels park in McFarland.

Question for you:

What's your favorite bootcamp move/exercise?

Great to read about your rationale for bootcamp intervals, and Thanks for the link to the Active.com videos on drills. I'll use some of them in my next bootcamp, like Mustang Kicks -- they look fun! Cheers, -Sunny

Sunny, you're welcome! Mustang kicks are good, we did those when I was on the crew team at UW-Madison. Powerful move!

Dustin, you're welcome! I've heard many good things about your camps.
