There is a new look reception area and gym, and there are more circuit classes for members to participate in.

The morning cardio sessions with Jo are proving very popular….so popular that it is now being piloted as a boot camp which will be marketed for members and non members to commence in October.
Simon Wigdhal lost a Stone during August as a result of the classes…how amazing is that!!

These sessions are serious fat burning cardio sessions every Mon, Weds and Friday mornings from 8.15am to 9.15 am and starting  Tues 13th September will be Tues and Thurs evenings at 7.45pm. See ‘Four Week Boot Camp‘

Jo has also been training YORK THUNDER NETBALL team twice a week. The sessions have been a mixture of all the major power moves, plyometrics, core strengthening, speed and endurance work.

They have been boxing  and sprinting in the arcade, power lunging in reception and  jumping over benches in the free weights area.
The ladies have made awesome gains to their fitness and it will be interesting to watch their progress throughout  the season.
If anyone wants to come and support the team a fixture list is on the notice board in the fitness centre. The ladies add character, fun, laughter and loads of energy to the general  gym atmosphere.

Jo is now on the mend from her double knee replacement in April but has brought in a Personal trainer and friend Nigel Davies to help with her recovery .
Nigel, before losing his eye sight was the fitness manager at Bannatynes. He is a very positive and inspirational guy and his presence will make a huge difference to the club.  He is going to be around a lot so make sure you have a chat with him if you can.
