Exercising with Class: Fitness Classes to Try at Your Fitness Connection

Longtime readers of the blog will know we’re big champions of accountability. Committing to the workout regimen that’s right for you is the first and arguably most important step to reaching your fitness goals. We’ve written about staying accountable to your fitness goals. We’ve also written about the benefits of having a workout buddy because we find that depending on others – and having others depend on you – is a great way to stay on track when your motivation is flagging.

But if structured workouts and bigger groups are what you need to stick to your exercise routine, good news: Fitness Connection has a variety of group classes available to all members at every skill and fitness level. Here’s a few you should check out.

HIIT. HIIT (or High-Intensity Interval Training) is all the rage, and for good reason. HIIT classes at Fitness Connection motivate you to give it your all for short bursts of time, punctuated by brief rest periods before you go all in again. Strength training and cardio workouts will build up your stamina and endurance, and you’ll build lean muscle, boost your metabolism and torch fat.

Fit Cycle. If you’re looking for an exhilarating challenge, Cycle class may be right for you. Put your cardiovascular system through its paces with this challenging cardio class, which scales easily to all fitness levels. Strengthen your legs, build endurance and burn calories while listening to great music and encouraging instructors!

Pilates. Strengthen your “powerhouse” – abs, glutes, back, and thighs – with careful instruction based on the teachings of Joseph Pilates. You’ll learn the power of controlled movements, and achieve optimal strength, posture, and flexibility.

Yoga. A steady yoga practice has not just physical benefits, but spiritual ones as well. Carve out a piece of your week to enjoy mastering a challenging physical practice that will sculpt, refine, and tone your mind and body. No matter your skill or fitness level, yoga at Fitness Connection has something to offer you.
