 Hello out there...



It has been 2 weeks since my return to teaching group fitness classes at the gym.   My classes have been much smaller than pre - COVID and I am hoping for the return of more participants soon.  I know we are all leery about going out to establishments if it is not essential.  Please know that we as instructors and the facilities are doing their best to keep you safe and healthy.  For those of you that have returned we will continue to provide 110% of our efforts in your work out and we will do as much as we can to make you comfortable.

Gyms may not be considered essential but some of us are just not going to do that work at home. With the climate of our society right now we could all use an essential workout for our mind as well as our body.  Exercise is a great stress reliever and it can help clear your mind, both essential to aid in lower blood pressure, better sleep, reduced anxiety, improved immune system.  As we all know those with compromised immune systems can be more susceptible to COVID-19.

Please know I am in no way implying we are as essential as medical providers and those individuals at our grocery stores, pharmacy's, all required to work when the pandemic was at it's peak.  I would like to say a big THANK YOU to those individuals, I know you were under extreme pressure.  The fitness industry would like to think we can provide some support to those workers when they need it most.

So for those of you not sure if you are ready to head back to the gym, stop in or give you facility a call and ask what measures they have in place for your safety.


Thank you to all our essential workers, everyone be safe

Rickie

😉😉New workout coming soon...

Create attainable goals, example: start exercising. Suggestion: be more specific and achievable.  Start exercising 10 minutes a day, 3x per week and grow from there. 2. Approach your goal as adding something positive rather than eliminating, example: eat healthier.      Suggestion: Include a vegetable in one meal a day, 3-4 meals a week.     Once these realistic goals are achieved re-evaluate and create your new attainable goal.  PLEASE prevent from creating a list of goals or to do's, approach one at a time, once you have reached your goal and it is sustainable then move on.  This is not pas...

      I don't wanna...     Here you can add whatever it is you just don't have the desire to do, whether it is a run, gym workout, etc.  We all have those days when you just don't have the desire and please remember rest is also good and important for the body.  Sometimes all we need is a little movement to get that adrenaline moving to get us started.  There may also be days where after that little bit of movement you decide nope not today and that is okay.          These bite-cise workouts are great options to kick start your motivation or to give you a short burst of movement to expend some calories and boost your energy levels and maybe your spirit.     This workout as always can be done with or without weights it does have a short warm up and some brief stretching.  Listen and watch for modifications to meet you where you are in your journey.  I have included the exercises below if you would like ...
