YMCA of Northwest Florida

When the 100,000 Meter Rowing Club Challenge began on the week of Valentine’s Day, it seemed like Fourth of July would never come. Now rowers have until closing on Saturday, July 3 to log at least 100,000 meters on a rowing machine. Many members have chosen to go above and beyond the goal, but we are proud of everyone who chased after the goal. Official results will be posted July 5. Way to go!

Spartacus Challenge

The Men’s Health “Spartacus Workout” has gained popularity and is a challenging workout to complete in a set time period. Our Spartacus Challenge, which will be held on Saturday, July 24 at 8:30 am in the gymnasium, will be a “last man/woman standing” type of competition with plenty of friendly rivalry. If you are interested in competing, you can register at the front desk for $10. If you missed the demonstration on June 17, please e-mail Erin for a copy of the workout so you have time to train! The male and female winner will receive a free month’s membership, so give it a try!

10 Fitness Tests to Deem Yourself in Shape

We have developed the ultimate assessment of well-rounded, holistic fitness, and it is a battery of 10 tests or measurements. This is ideal to use as a starting point, a revealer of weaknesses (and how to improve them), or to see if you really are as fit as you think you are. E-mail Erin if you would like more information or to schedule a test.
