Every 4 weeks, we like to test our campers to see where they're at and how much their strength and muscular endurance has increased. Most of the time testing includes how many squats, push-ups (both regular and modified), sit-ups (the full, gym-class style ones from your childhood), pull-ups (modified on a bar or railing) you can do in 1:00 and how long you can hold a core plank.
We always do an initial testing when they first start their boot camp experience and then at the end of each of their sessions. Most improvement (as you might be able to guess) is seen after their first 4 weeks. By your second, third (etc) re-test the numbers do not increase by as much. It becomes more of a mental game where you are really tested to see if you can push yourself past your limits.
The Round Rock Indoor camps just did re-testing this week and here are their stats:
Squats - Increased by an average of 5
Core Planks - Increased by and average of :36
Full Sit-ups - Increased by an average of 5
Regular Push-ups - Increased by and average of 10
GREAT JOB GUYS!!!
