First Summer Workout

The 7 week Summer FitFunCamp began on Sunday morning June 7. A great group of participants were there to start their fitness routine and get in great Summer shape.

The class started off with a warm-up to help get the blood flowing and the muscles ready for the workout. The warm-up included jumping jacks, push-ups, lying hip extensions and more. Once the group was warmed up and ready to go we jumped right in to the workout.

Our first circuit consisted of kneeling push-ups, split squats and mountain climbers. Each exercise was performed for 30 seconds with a 2 minute rest before performing a 2nd circuit. Exercises are performed in timed intervals, Tabata style, in order to allow each INDIVIDUAL to perform to their ability. FitFunCamp does not use the "old" method of sets and reps.

After a brief water break we got right in to prisoner squats, cross crawls, planks, hip extensions and side planks. The group found out that you can work your core without even seeing a single crunch. Again, these were performed for 30 seconds each and several circuits were completed.

Alicia said "It was great, can't wait to see my results in 7weeks. Join us, it 's a great way to start the day!"

And Alison has challenged others in St. Charles Parish when she commented "We worked up a good sweat. Let's see how many people we can get out there."

It's not too late. Get out there and join FitFunCamp today. Contact Team Xcelerate at teamxyg@gmail.com for a registration form and information.
