Nutrition with bootcamp sounds pretty tedious. My bootcamps have very basic guidelines to follow. The body comp is tracked with bioelectrical impedance. If they want more than the bootcamp offers than that would call for an individual consultation session or plan.

The bootcamps are made to take on general problems and goals. So "individualizing" the nutrition portion as if training an individual client is a not a good thing to me. Also your talking about 10-20 people training in one bootcamp style that primarly works endurance strength and medium endurance conditioning, I assume. How will you know who is carb intolerant, allergic to soy or milk, can only get in 2-3 meals because of life schedule and other variables.

I think bootcamps are great for "foot in the door" type marketing and training, but I would think a trainer would want to reserve individual training and nutrition for individual clients.
