Get in the best shape of your life with BMF

British Military Fitness, otherwise known as BMF, not only gets you in shape but also awakens your mind, getting you out in the fresh air amongst meet new people.

BMF is all about the professionalism of armed forces instructors. They are experts at motivating people and getting the best out of them, and they also have a great sense of humour. Military fitness classes are approximately one hour long and consist of paired exercises, circuits, some running and team games. However, no two classes or instructors are the same and this ensures members get plenty of variety during their time with BMF.

BMF is no ‘boot camp’ either. Fostering an atmosphere of encouragement, people within the group will achieve their best. Classes offer a refreshing change from exercising alone or in an indoor gym environment. Best of all, the first class is totally free.

How do you sign up?
Simply go online and visit www.britmilfit.com, complete the online health questionnaire and then turn up at the park. In Liverpool classes run in Sefton Park and Calderstones Park, so there’s plenty to choose from.

What happens once you’re there?
You’ll be divided into your fitness ability group and then guided by an instructor through a ten minute warm-up session. After that you will be with the other members in your coloured bibs for the rest of the class. BMF is a total body workout and the exercises are designed to work all your major muscle groups.

What happens if you can’t handle the pace?
You will. The instructors are not there to break you, they are there to provide motivation and encouragement ensuring you work out at your optimum level.

Will you want to come back?
Seven out of ten people who trial a class sign up. And if it’s not for you, it’s no big deal as the first session is completely free of charge.
