You made a New Year fitness resolution to work out but the excitement is starting to wear off.  You may be feeling a little better, shed a few pounds but it’s not enough to motivate you for the long haul.  Struggling to find effective motivation may be the number one reason people stop visiting their gym.

Here’s why…

Fitness activities like walking or running, biking or swimming require high energy, focus, and determination.  These requirements feel more demanding when you are doing them on your own because YOU are the only person keeping you from quitting. An interruption to your schedule such as illness, late night at work or travel, makes getting back to your fitness routine a lot harder.

Other reasons may include repeating the same exercises; it’s just not challenging.  The routine becomes boring and the results are no longer easy to recognize.  Or worse, you work up the confidence to try the newest equipment and you injure yourself.  

It’s time to try Group Fitness.

Group Fitness classes offer many benefits for those wanting a quality workout they can schedule.

• Most fitness centers offer a variety of group classes at no extra cost.
• A certified fitness trainer is guiding your movements.
• You are part of a community that pushes, motivates and inspires you to work harder. 
• The classes are scheduled making it easier to plan your fitness calendar.  Something personal arises, simply catch the next class.
