We are exploring whether or not to bring Reformer Pilates to the gym. Should we invest n some reformers and host reformer Pilates and combo classes?
MARCH FITNESS PROGRAMMING
Member feedback expressed to switch the strength days and that is exactly what we've done...
The 3-day-split strength days for March now falls on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. On these strength days we will perform one main lift to see progression over the month and then multiple accessories.
If you don't train on the allocated strength days you can still gain strength by choosing heavier weights and performing less reps or time under tension during the likes of circuits classes. Monday - Strength - legs Tuesday - Core & Conditioning Wednesday - Strength - push Thursday - Circuits Friday - Strength - pull Saturday - Core & Conditioning 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. 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.
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
