“Fitness for You” March 2022 Virtual Fitness Descriptions: All levels are welcome! Pilates Mat with Charissa: Looking for a total body, lowimpact workout on the floor? Look no further- Pilates is here! Created by Joseph Pilates, the Pilates practice utilizes bodyweight and sometimes props to achieve lengthening and strengthening of muscles simultaneously. Key principles like concentration, centering, precision, control and breathing will guide this class. Mat and light to medium weights suggested. Compound Strength Intervals with Ashley: Increase workout intensity by activating multiple muscle groups at the same time! In intervals of 45 seconds of work followed by 15second intervals of rest, strengthening exercises using free weights will be executed. The NIH suggest that children and teens engage in strength training 3 times a week while adults should engage in strength training at least 2 times a week. Medium to heavy dumbbells and a mat are suggested. Core Combinations with Charissa: Commit to core conditioning! Utilizing light weights or no weights and a mat, participants can expect to perform at least 2 sets of 8 repetitions for each core combination. What is “the core” you ask? Great question!
