February 2023 at Serenity Fitness - LOVE YOUR BODY

HEY WE HOPE YOU ❤️LOVE❤️ SERENITY FITNESS THIS FEBRUARY Spread the love this February with a loved one, friend or colleague with one week of FREE training (fitness & Pilates). If they sign up to a 12 week or monthly membership YOU get A FREE T-SHIRT 👕.

For those pals who need a little push just tell them our classes are 45 minutes, are capped to 10 members and coached by a team of personal trainers and Pilates instructors.

At Serenity Fitness we simply want you to move more in order to live better. Nothing more complex than that.




FEBRUARY PILATES PROGRAMMING

Every month we will have a classical Pilates move as the focus...Given how much Anne appears to love them February's focus will be the SHOULDER BRIDGE.

See you on the mat 🧘Tuesdays at 5:30 pm, Thursdays at 5:30 pm and Saturdays at 11 am.

Dress appropriately, recommend wearing slipper socks so you don't slip on the mats and keep your feet warm, and if you prefer too, then please bring your own mat.




FEBRUARY FITNESS PROGRAMMING Member feedback said they wanted more strength based sessions and more squats, and we've also noticed several of you are doing double session of Pilates ad fitness so two session of core work isn't ideal..your wish is my command - we've mixed things up for you this month...

To help you decide which days to attend, here's a run down of what's happening in our fitness classes during February.

Monday - Core & Conditioning 🏃‍♀️🧘 Tuesday - Strength - push 🏋️ Wednesday - Circuits 🔁 Thursday - Strength - pull 💪🏽 Friday - Core & Conditioning 🏃‍♀️ 🧘 Saturday - Strength - legs 🦵 Core and conditioning🏃‍♀️ 🧘 will have you activating your core muscles (which isn't always a stomach crunch or a plank) and using the cardio machines.

Circuits 🔁 is usually 8-10 stations of different movements for 45 maybe 50 seconds of work and 15 to 10 seconds rest.

Strength focus is going to follow a traditional strength split of push, pull and legs. What is 'Push, Pull, Legs'? It's a full-body training split that's designed to build muscle in almost every single muscle group by following a simple format: you only train either upper-body pushing muscles (push), upper-body pulling muscles (pull), or your entire lower-body (legs). These strength session give you an opportunity to learn movements and to push yourself to go heavier. We'll focus on one key lift and then do multiple accessory exercises should you still want a heart pump or to get breathless we'll add optional conditioning in there too.

Exercises include: Strength - push 🏋️ - bench press, overhead press, landmine press, push press. Strength - pull 💪🏽 - deadlift, pull up, banded pull down, rows. Strength - legs 🦵 - squat, lunge, split squat, hip thrust, Romanian deadlift (RDL), kettlebell swings. . The programming changes on a monthly basis, so if you tend to train on the same days each week you will get a mix to your training the month after. Please remember to make the coach aware of any body niggles that you have, a quiet word in the ear and we'll change the programming slightly to suit your body. And as always you get out of the workout what you put into it 💪.



CLASS ETIQUETTE The 3 B's

  • Be on time

  • Book in

  • Bring water, sweat towel and slipper socks



DOING DOUBLE SESSIONS

Hungry? Consider bringing a small snack to keep your energy levels up.

Bored of hanging around for those 15 minutes? 🤔 Use that time wisely and work on those movements that you long for but not quite mastered. Practice your pull ups and push ups...they unfortunately don't just happen overnight



MOVEMENT OF THE MONTH: THE PUSH UP Can't do push ups? Let's fix that with progressions...

  • On you knees

  • On the box

  • To a height

  • Hand release push ups


ARE YOU DOING THE SHOULDER BIG 3 TWICE A DAY EVERYDAY? AND HOW ABOUT THE HIP BIG 3?







See You At The Gym SOON 🤞
