January 9, 2011


Welcome back from the Christmas break.  I hope everyone feels rested and recovered with the time off.  Programming resumes as per normal. 
Program 1 as per normal Tabata protocol
Program 2 (strength) is headed towards the peak and completion of this phase.  The final 3 weeks are listed below.  At the end of the final 3 weeks all that remains to be done is testing to see how far you have come since the beginning of the program.
Program 3 will offer 2 different strains for this week.  1 strain will be for those interested in getting started or were sedentary over the break.  The second strain is for those who trained through the break and are ready to pick up where we left off.

I hope to see lots of new faces in over the next little while.  There is no better time than right now to get started on moving your health and fitness forward.  You need no experience and no knowledge.  We will teach you all you need to know.  All you have to do is show up and try.  Hope to see you soon.
