Summer Training

Hello everyone and happy Sunday!

Summer Session starts tomorrow, June 3rd! Are you as excited as us?!

This means, that if you are coming to take classes with us this week, you probably haven’t done any type of aerial exercise in about two weeks. Did you know that within two weeks of not exercising, your body can start to show a 7-10 percent loss in strength levels? What?! Ridiculous! The numbers are baffling! Especially since I decided it would be great to cram in two vacations, one to visit my brother in South Carolina, and the other to visit friends in Las Vegas. You can bet that I did not go to the gym, and have not been watching what I was I was eating.

So if you’re like me and took full advantage of this mini vacation, you, or more likely your kids, are about to embark on the great adventure of building those muscles back up. My adventure started last night, and let me tell you, my legs hate me! Getting out of bed was so hard this morning! You might encounter the same with your kiddos this week, or yourself if you’re taking our adult aerial class! *Disclaimer: You should take this class; I started aerial training as an adult and have never looked back!*

Even though I’m in pain, like you might be this week, I want to remind you guys that it will go away. Since your body is used to the exercise, it will be easy to build that strength back up. Please do not get frustrated, especially if you have tired and cranky kids the morning after their first class back. It will get easier.

While we love having you and we wish everyone could stay with us for our Summer Session, we know that with schedule changes and planned vacations, we might not be seeing some of you until the fall. Summer is a great time to work on strength even if you are taking a break longer that two weeks. Stay active and don’t forget, you can always come to a week of summer camp, or even schedule a private lesson. Upper body strength is difficult to maintain, but it’s all about trying to stay active and consistent. 

We can’t wait to train with you!!

Catch you next week!
