Fitness Belfast at Decathlon Play Days!

Had the best time at Decathlon Belfast last Saturday for their annual Play Days event.
Hosting a Kickass Bootcamp workout for adults showcasing all the awesome strength training equipment on offer was my intention.
In reality, so many mini Bootcamp Superstars turned up we shifted to playing head shoulders knees toes & cones & singing Lava Chicken from the Minecraft Movie instead.
Worked out even better! 😆 🌋 🍗
LA LA LA LAVA! CHA CHA CHA CHICKEN!
Massive thank you to everyone at Decathlon for having us & all the Bootcamp Superstars who absolutely rocked our super fun mix of Kickass Bootcamp wonderfulness.
