This Y Fitness Challenge is a monthly small group training program focused on your best health and best results! During the program, you will work directly with a YMCA Certified Personal Trainer in a small group team environment to exercise, complete challenges, eat right, and learn how to BECOME YOUR BEST SELF! Teams will have no more than 8 total participants. Results will vary for every individual but may include: weight loss, increased strength and cardiovascular health, added support and motivation, increased energy and stamina, stress relief, and community building. Program participants will meet with their dedicated Trainer once a week for 4 weeks, completing a team workout specifically designed to meet their goals. In addition to the trainer-led workout, each participant will receive a weekly trainer-designed workout, meant to be completed together as a group. Throughout the 4 weeks, your Trainer will guide many topics such as strength training, cardiovascular exercise, goal setting and motivation, sleep, and more! This is not just a weekly group workout, it’s a lifestyle change! New to this challenge, we are adding a bit of friendly competition among the different classes. The class that loses the most weight will get a post on Facebook and a YMCA Challenge Completed shirt.
