When you book you will be sent a kit list of everything you need to bring. This list varies depending on the time of year. We supply all exercise equipment. |

There are usually 20-30 women on each camp, depending on the location. |

| How much weight will I lose in the week? |
Results during the week vary depending on height, weight, BMI and current activity levels. Although you will see great results in your week at camp, we plan for you to continue increasing your fitness, losing weight and achieving your goals long after your stay at UBC comes to an end. We offer the support and help needed to achieve this with our aftercare team and Members' Area on the website. |
| What happens when I leave? |
Although you will see fantastic improvements to your fitness, strength, body shape and weight during your week, UBC isn't just a quick-fix, drop-a-dress size approach. When you leave camp you will be given training and nutrition plans, as well as a log-in for our unique Members' Area on the website. Here you can search for recipes, nutritional information, exercise plans and other helpful resources. You will also have direct access to the UBC fitness and nutrition teams who are always on hand for help and advice. |
