New Class & Upcoming Challenge

NEW CLASS: Tuesdays 5:30PM Corps Fitness Bodyweight Blast (Matt D): Run, jump, lunge, push, pull, press, and otherwise move your body through high intensity group circuits (note: body-bars, medicine balls, and light KBs may be used).


UPCOMING CHALLENGE:

The "I'm a CORPS FITNESS LOSER" WEIGHTLOSS CHALLENGE

Call it what you will...maybe the "It's Speedo Season Rivalry." No matter...because it's on!

Next week look for the sign-up sheet at the gym.

The general idea is: We'll split participants into 2 groups: Team Chris vs Team Matt. 6-week weightloss challenge beginning MAY 1 (measurements every 2 weeks).Winning group wins! (More details at sign up).

This is designed to be a FUN competition for any CFers and to introduce some group motivation and accountability toward maybe achieving our New Year's Resolutions...that just seems like yesterday, eh...does anyone remember our CF Resol-action?

CF...to the Next Level

Special thanks (I guess you could call it that) to Stephen Pradon of Next Level Sports for sub-ing in as guest instructor at 5:30pm.







CFers were treated to this high intensity circuit, in the form of a Ring of Fire...where the movement never ceased...and neither did the pain...it's like if you pull your bottom lip straight out...not bad, eh?...now try to wrap it over your head...yeah, that's intense!

PS. Next Level Sports is Berks County's premier sport conditioning program. Team or Individual athletes. Visit http://www.nlscamps.com/ or email Stephen (spradon@hotmail.com)
