Overview: Offers 24 pieces of exercise/workout equipment. Half
of the equipment is cardio and the other half if strength training.
Each member goes through all the pieces of equipment at least
one time per workout session. The workout sessions vary by the
time spent on each piece of equipment...
The time spent on the equipment is determined by the club each
day and is conveyed to each member via CD that is played during
each workout session. There are no weights to change. All the
equipment is hydraulic and the club sets the tension for each
piece of equipment. In other words, you don’t have to think
about the equipment or plan out a fitness strategy… you
just go and have fun!
Goals of the Members: Weight loss, body toning, friendship, Doctor's
orders for various health problems which some include depression,
osteoporosis, diabetes, rehabilitation, and menopause.
Cost: A visit to the club would be necessary to determine the
right program for the individual. However, generally it ranges
from $29 - $35 per month with about $60 in up front fees. (Very
reasonably priced for anyone on a budget.) You may also be required
to sign a one-year contract.
Time Needed: Usually starts at 3 workouts per week, and expands
from there. Each workout encompasses 30 minutes per session, with
a 5-minute warm up prior to working out and another 5-minute stretch
at the end of the session. Some members workout 5 to 6 times a
week. A day off between workouts is not necessary with Resistance
Training as it is with other exercise programs.
