Pick of the week: Kalev Personal Training

It will have you begging for mercy but give you great results

I have spent a lot of money on gym memberships but if I have to put up with one more queen hogging the bench press while he yaps on his cell phone, I’m going to scream.

So for those of us who like to get gross and sweaty when we work out, Kalev Personal Training runs a kickboxing boot camp that will have you begging for mercy but give you great results.

A combination of gruelling boot camp exercises and kickboxing will help you get that ripped body you’ve always wanted — and I don’t mean a Charles Atlas torso teetering on chicken legs either. The best part is that the trainers are nice guys who look like this guy on the right.
