Snow and the Rhode Show!

Yeah!!! The snow finally came!! Well, you may not agree, but we LOVE it! (Ok, it might just be me who loves it ) But it does make outdoor running a bit more difficult, so it’s time to bring it inside onto the treadmills as we get ready for upcoming fights and the Warrior Dash competition!

The Warrior Dash may not be until June but have you taken a look at that the website?  Those people are crazy!!!  I guess that means we are too!!  Better start training today!!     Join us for Coach Jess’s MONDAY 9:30am Derby Girl class as well as her WEDNESDAY 5:30pm Core Conditioning. Just 2 of our many classes at SB designed to whip us into shape!!

Today we were LIVE on The Rhode Show!  Mary is an awesome host, so much fun to work with and just puts you at ease.  If you didn’t get a chance to see us, check out the WPRI website and pick up some fitness tips and exercises.

Tracey, our lovely personal trainer, did a 2 minute routine- 4 exercises – high knees/squat jumps/push ups/bicycle crunches – back to back,  30 seconds each. No rest. At the end of the 2 minutes, you can take a rest for 1 minute. The intensity, speed and power from this format mimics the conditions and demands of an amateur boxing round. Boxing requires us to train sport specific and this is a great example.  But you can create your own workout- just choose an exercise to do intensely, non-stop for 2 minutes. Rest 1 minute and repeat! Jumping rope is great, shadow boxing too! Whatever you choose,  give 100% for the 2 minutes, rest a minute then do it again!! 5 times! Well, what are you waiting for – get up!
