Re-launching outdoor fitness sessions at Tanner Street for 2011
Sign up for our new season of cardio-conditioning classes and get in shape in time for Summer
Maybe you’re planning a holiday over Easter and want to lose a few pounds or you are feeling guilty already about all the chocolate you plan to eat! FitNS bootcamps are making a return and have a new look for 2011. Read on to find out more about our fantastic new plans for taking tailored outdoor fitness to the next level.
We will be running a package of 6 sessions at a time for which we will need a minimum of 8 people (maximum of 12 people) signed up for the classes to run, so do forward this onto anyone you think maybe interested and get in early!
Everyone signing up will become part of the group for 3 weeks, no matter your level of fitness everyone will see and feel improvements as we are offering a unique difference - the sessions will be designed and targeted based on the information provided to us by the participants in advance – this might be a particular sport requirement, a body image concern or a specific injury. The sessions are run by qualified personal trainers who are used to designing individual tailored programs and we plan to bring some of this thinking to our groups rather than just roll out a standard class format.
Our first bootcamp course will run twice a week for 3 weeks from 4th-20th April on Monday and Wednesday evenings at 6.15-7.15pm. The cost for all 6 sessions is £45. In addition to the fitness sessions, each participant will also be invited to fill in a food diary for analysis and will have access to personalised nutritional and fitness advice from your trainer for the duration of the bootcamp.
To sign up or for further information, please contact Nikki on nikki@fitns.co.uk or 07977 261165.
Tips and tricks
Web tool of the month
A really handy one to keep in your favourites... you know the feeling when you fancy eating something you know you shouldn’t but think that nothing else will fill that void – take a look in the snack swapper, you pick what you are craving and the snack swapper will suggest some alternatives that might just tantalise your tastebuds in a slightly healthier, less calorific way!

Exercise of the month – 1 leg raised squat
Put a twist on your regular squat exercise and target the inner thigh, all you need is a bench or step.
- Stand with your right foot in the centre the step and your left foot on the floor about a foot away from the step
- Keeping your back straight and feet pointing forwards, sit down towards the floor keeping your knees positioned behind your toes
- Push down on your heels to slowly raise yourself back to a standing position
- Complete 10-15 reps and then change legs. Do 2-3 sets.
Advance the move by adding weight – a barbell rested on your shoulders works well here, or you could try holding a dumbbell or medicine ball to your chest.
