MEN ONLY CORE CLASS
The core or trunk muscles prepare the body for movement, providing control and stability.

Start your Friday morning with a challenging class. For the first 30 minutes we focus on cardio vascular endurance increasing the pace to a moderate level interspersed with 30 second intervals of higher intensity giving special attention to body positioning and posture. For second half of the class we begin strength building exercises for the upper torso, lower body and the core performing each one for thirty seconds. For the strength building portion we use weights, bands, balls, gliders or anything else that will challenge the participants! The workouts change every four weeks and the participants. We finish with a nice ten minute stretch.
Finish your week with energy and vigor!
