Greetings! "July is a blind date with summer . " - -Hal Borland, Sundial of the Seasons We hope you had a wonderful 4th of July holiday. While at the Studio, we noticed dogs in every shape and size, including in every kind of outfit possible, passing by the front window! The Pet Parade was crowded and busy (in fact, we heard it was a record year for the Downtown parade). What a scene is was! Summer is officially here, and here's the News....

COMING SOON!

Starting mid-August, the Studio will be open all day - we will no longer be closing during the lunch-time hours. So if you'd like to come in and workout on your own, now is the time. This is available to members and punchcard holders with no reservation required between the hours of 9am and 5pm. We only ask that you be respectful of our Personal Training clients while you are here.

This time will also be available for friends and visitors. They will simply need to purchase a single-session visit (we'll have this time-frame listed like a class, so that others can join you) and they'll be ready to go.

Timothy out for a bit... When you've spent your life playing hard, getting older can be a wee bit challenging - especially when arthritis starts to kick in. Not only that, but low back disc degeneration comes into play as well. These two things have taken their toll on Timothy, so he's getting it fixed! He will be out for a week to 10-days, starting the afternoon of July 18th.

He will be undergoing a non-invasive, very quick procedure to relieve the compression on the nerves in his back and remedy the pain he's been experiencing. ALL team workouts and personal training sessions will continue as normal (we're in the process of getting everything covered now). Timothy hopes to be back at the Studio on the 29th. We would also like to send a HUGE shout-out to Ashley S. for helping get this approved through insurance!!

Nutrition

Tell Me About Pre Workout Fueling We are often asked what we think about eating prior to a workout. Well, we'd like to let you know that we think it's important! Now, we're not talking about eating as you walk through the door, but we are talking about making sure you've fueled your body about 30-60 minutes before your workout. It takes FUEL to help you be your best self while working out, so why would you skip it? There are plenty of choices, but here are some tried-and-true options: Bananas (even on whole grain toast) Oats Fruit and Greek Yogurt Protein Smoothie Trail Mix Hard Boiled Eggs Chicken and Brown Rice (or Broccoli or Sweet Potato) Nutrition Bar

Let's make July the best month of the year! Timothy & Denise
