Improvement as a way of life!

It has been an interesting and fun last few weeks.

The gymnasts are all improving with each passing week getting closer to state when we hope they will peak. Both individuals and teams have been accruing award after award each competition. Constant improvement seems to be the mantra both here in the gym world, and also in my other life as an “Improvement Adviser.” 

Improvement is something we all strive for. Whether we are self improving-- like a good friend of mine who is leaving to take a promotion, going back to school (me), working on our homes, marriages, kids etc.-- we seem to always be in a fluid state. 

The boot camp we started last week was proof of the interest in self improvement. We had a good turnout for the first class. We also had a lot of fun “self improving” using gymnastics equipment to work out. The gymnastics setting offers unique and unequaled fitness potential. The conditioning available through the use of specialized equipment affords a total body workout in about half the time traditional methods offer. Seemingly “simple” tasks such as jumping up onto a bar into a front support position become challenging when jumping from a squishy surface, jumping really high, or keeping your arms straight. Gymnastics conditioning uses multiple muscle groups all at the same time. You may think you are working your arms, only to find your abdominal muscles and legs very sore the next day.

The boot camp will certainly jump start your fitness efforts. What better place to get a workout… the kids can come along and do open gym! You get ripped and your kids get fit!

We offer personalized instruction for all fitness levels. There is no need to already be in shape to join the class; however, if you are in great shape- we have a few challenges for you. Rope climbs? Hand-stand push-ups anyone? 

Coach Don will challenge you to push yourself to try something new. Don and I are training for our second “Warrior Dash” race this September, and we are always looking for fellow dashers to train with.

Hope to see you Sunday at 6:00 PM for Adult Boot Camp/Open Gym
