Another New Year has begun and you’re about to start your fitness plan again. You start with much enthusiasm, but quickly get bored. Maybe it is time to try a different approach. One that will be fun, have results and you can stick with.
Experts agree that group training can be
beneficial. Working out in a group provides support, accountability and
structure. People don’t want to let their buddy or group down, which is
terrific in terms of adherence to an exercise plan.
Other benefits of group training, you’re more
likely to complete a well round exercise routine and get a potentially tougher
workout. If you want to push yourself a little bit more, group training can
help you move past a plateau. Trainings are led by someone you can trust as an
expert. The trainer also creates the environment with “rules” direction and a
clear plan. Also trainings are typically more entertaining, making time pass
quicker than a solo workout. Another benefit is you have to keep an
appointment, making it harder to bail out. With group trainings you become part
of a close-knit community that sweats, aches and achieves together. You have an
opportunity to bring a workout partner and make new friends.
Since starting our LIVEFIT and NFL (men)
groups at PNF, we have had amazing results. Not only is it fun, but wonderful,
healthy friendships have developed in and out of the gym. If this is the type
of fitness you are looking for in 2014, start with getting a group (minimum of
four) together. The next LIVEFIT starts Jan. 20 and runs for six weeks and 12
trainings, contact us for more information.
Think of it as power in numbers, confidence in
numbers, or call it a misery-loves-company thing. However you chose to look at
it, just know that leaning on others for support helps pave a smooth road
toward a healthier, fitter chapter in your life.
