About Outdoor Athlete
How we got started
Outdoor Athlete was founded by Amy Thomas as a way to take her love of fitness and exercise out of the traditional gym setting. She began offering Bootcamp and Group Exercise classes in 2016. Instead of offering sessions in a traditional gym setting, she decided to move her workouts to "open air" venues such as local parks, vineyards, and backyards. Each workout takes advantage of the existing surroundings and features of the venue to gives a unique workout experience.
Fitness in the Newark Delaware area
Boot Camp Equipment
We offer Fitness Bootcamp classes using various pieces of athletic equipment and your own bodyweight to increase your flexibility and strength, make you fitter and burn calories. Sessions are a full hour and include a warm up before moving into the workout. You’ll work through multiple stations while getting your heart rate up. Each exercise can be modified to accommodate any fitness level. From beginner to advanced, you will feel the benefits of this class! To join a class, simply find one that fits your schedule here and drop in!

- Tire Flips

If it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you!
