Camp Knut is a month-long fitness journey that will allow participants to regain their fitness through a systematically chalked-out training routine and diet plan. It is well underway in a smashing manner with Norwegian bodybuilder and streamer, Knut, choreographing a group of Austin natives for their fitness goals.

After a short visit to the 2022 TwitchCon in Amsterdam, the 36-year-old streamer revealed that he will be traveling to Austin to organize a fitness camp that will include several fellow streamers and content creators.

Currently, the participating troops in the camp include Matthew "Mizkif," Nick "Nmplol," Eric "Erobb221," Tectone, and Vincent "Cyr."


Knut curates personalised routines for the participants

All the participating streamers have a different body type and weight. Keeping that in mind, Knut has curated a specific diet plan and routine for the trainees. For example, on the first day of Camp Knut, the Twitch streamer revealed that he had made a diet chart for Mizkif that excludes eggs since the latter is allergic to it.

According to him, the primary goal is to share information about fitness and encourage the online community to start working out. Speaking via his YouTube channel, he said:

"The concept is we're training and dieting like professional bodybuilders to show the Twitch community, YouTube community that it is possible for everyone (to get fit)..."

The first day consisted of various exercises such as chest exercises, calves, and cardio training. The second and third day focussed on shoulders and lateral exercises. The fourth day followed more weight training, and the latest iteration centered around leg training.

However, Knut isn't the only one guiding the streamers. He has joined various professional trainers in their gym to distribute the work load evenly.

With five days of training almost complete, many streamers have commented on the positive change in their lives so far. Mizkif took to Twitter to express his gratitude towards the Norwegian bodybuilder for his efforts and dedication, saying:

Nmplol has also conveyed his gratitude towards the training routine:

One of the biggest moments of the training camp so far has been the recent words of encouragement from the eight-time Mr. Olympia Ronnie Coleman. Sharing a heartfelt message, he said:

"Wanna say a big shoutout to the guy with Camp Knut. Keep training hard, keep being inspiration, stay motivated and never give up, never quit. Yeah buddy!"

The 36-year-old was visibly moved by the touching statement sent by one of his heroes, and replied by saying:

"I made it in life, boys. I made it in life."

Fans have shared their thoughts on the training camp as well

Once the 30-day routine is complete, the streamer who progressed the furthest will be revealed. The Twitch star is also expected to travel to LA after the training camp in Austin.
