Amanda Khouv, deputy editor ...is off to bootcamp

Putting in the leg work

An added bonus of working out under the sun? That awesome tan you’ll catch. These Boulevard Active Running Shorts by We Are Handsome will ensure your pins are out to catch the rays. £76, wearehandsome.com

Top of the crops

Workouts are certainly not the time for a fashion show, but we can’t help it that Lorna Jane’s Hamptons Sports Bra is so stylish. Flaunt it on its own – if not at bootcamp then where? £48, activeinstyle.co.uk

Hair to stay

Never has it been more vital to keep stray hair off your sweaty face than when you’re trying to get in a tough workout. Luckily Pop band’s Active Headbands do just that. Just let us sweat in peace, hair! £6 for 3, thepopband.com

Water good idea

Keep it eco even when you travel – the Bpa-free Bubi Bottle rolls up to save space in luggage and is lightweight, too, so you won’t be leaving a trail of plastic behind you when bootcamp is done and dusted. £19.95, bubibottle.com

Best foot forward

Bootcamp’s not the same without burpees, lunges, shuttle runs and basically moving in every direction possible. Reebok Crossfit Speed TR give you stability, comfort and breathability to take the edge off, if only slightly. £80, reebok.co.uk

In the shade

You won’t be needing super high-tech sports frames for bootcamp, but for those moments when the sun’s rays are affecting your ability to squat to your heart’s content, throw on these lightweight Maui Jim Silversword sunnies. Perfect for activity in the blazing sun as well as overcast conditions. £199, mauijim.com
