New Year, New You!

Regular physical activity is proven to improve both mental and physical health. How to get started: Pre-exercise screening: Schedule a FREE personal training session with one of our Fitness Specialist. Call to schedule: 504.349.6164. Set a goal for physical activity: One of the first steps is to identify why your health is important to you. Setting goals gives you something to work towards and provides you with a way to measure how well you are doing. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes for physical activity Stretching, warming up and cooling down: Usually a 5 to 10-minute warm-up is all you'll need, but this will vary from person to person. Discuss with a WJ Fitness Center fitness specialist. Get Moving! Start physical activity: Build your confidence and fitness level with a number of short sessions to get started. Exercise progression is unique to every person, if you have not exercised for some time, you should progress slowly. Increase the length and the intensity of your exercise session gradually.  If you're getting back to physical activity and have not exercised in a while, try our NEW 30 minute Health & Wellness Classes or inquire about our Blast Personal Training special going on this week. Depending on the activity, incorrect or poor technique may lead to injury. Our Fitness Specialist are here to help you!
