Fun with Fitness

BY KRISSIE AYLWARD, PFCCA FITNESS DIRECTOR

Zumba is back and we have some new cardio equipment as well! I took on the Zumba challenge and got certified in late November. I know that Colleen was the Zumba queen here at the Farms I can only hope to maybe be the Zumba princess as she has some big shoes to fill. Zumba is for everybody and everybody. Come dance to some fun upbeat tunes and burn a ton of calories without even realizing it! We also have two new recumbent bikes in the fitness center. We were able to replace the three bikes with two brand new Life Fitness Elevation series recumbent bikes fully loaded with HD console. Ride with Life Fitness instructors On Demand, sync your Apple Watch or Samsung Galaxy watch, stream your favorite apps, and enjoy interactive workouts with beautiful sceneries. Recumbent bikes are perfect for any fitness level but are especially great for those with lower back and joint issues. The recumbent bikes sit lower than your traditional upright bike, taking the pressure off the joint and giving the back more support. They have step thru accessibility as opposed to mounting and dismounting an upright bike. With Spring just around the corner, I look forward to putting together our Summer Line Up of classes including Yoga on the Beach, Water Aerobics, Aqua Zumba and more. So come in and share a dance or take a ride whatever you fancy. I look forward to seeing you soon. As always, I appreciate all of you Krissie “March 4th, the only day that is also a sentence. “ - John Green
