OK, so what do you do in FIT class? Are you going to these classes cause the girl to guy ratio is like 20:1?

From RivertonPaul on Fri, Dec 19, 2008 at 15:50:33

FIT (functionally integrated training) on the website states: "advanced, total body functional strength training class challenges your muscular endurance as well as balance and coordination by moving through all planes of motion with multi-joint and compound exercises."

I find it is sort of like a boot camp class or similar to workouts in those PX90 infomercials.

Today there were 27 in the class, 5 who were men, so the ratio is closer to 5:1, which is still not bad.

So ... what about the pullups Mr. Attorney??

Wow, that class does a lot for the body. Does it run the marathon for you too?

I'm still years behind you in general conditioning, but I'm trying to do stuff beyond running with a long term perspective. I can do plenty of push ups, but you can tell from my wussy 2 pull ups I've got a ways to go to improve my overall strength.

So Paul, I thought I'd mention that Ashli is doing a 1 1/2 hour step class on Wednesday at 8:30-10:00. It is travel step and is a blast and an awesome workout. Don't know if that's too late in the day for you but since it is a holiday...
