April Member of the Month

Meet our member, Felicia Zimmerman. She says, "For the past 40 years, exercise has been a constant in my life. In the 1970s, I ran. In the 80s, I did aerobics. In the 90s and subsequently, I’ve walked quickly and done yoga. Along the way, I’ve taken a practical approach to my diet, usually eating chicken and fish and consuming vegetables and fruits daily. But I don’t feel guilty about the occasional dessert.

In late 2016, my doctor expressed concern about my bone density. In turn, I found a trainer who I hoped would help me strengthen my core. Unfortunately, after a few months, I could see that my trainer was ill-equipped to advise a woman who knew what she wanted and needed.

After some research, I found Core Club. For the past five months, I have had twice-weekly sessions with Dave, whom I call my core surgeon. He ensures that our sessions achieve my objectives. Unlike my first trainer’s approach, Dave’s sessions are never boring and always challenge me to raise the bar on my own performance.

Bottom line, if you know what you want to accomplish and stay with it, you can have the body you want—even at 67!

Meet our February Member of the Month

Corinne loves working out at the Core Club.

She says, “It is close to home and convenient for my busy lifestyle. The friendly atmosphere of the staff and members are always welcoming, and I enjoy socializing with the friends I have made. I never get bored because of the excellent instructors and variety of classes. I recently completed the “Maintain Don’t Gain” program and was pleased with the results. I will be turning 50 this year and wanted to challenge myself with something new and decided to personal train with Dave and Will. I love the customized workouts and was surprised how strong I am. When I am at the Core Club there are no phones ringing, no texts, no emails and no to do lists, just me taking care of myself.

Way to go Corinne!!

Meet our January Member of the Month

NEW YEAR, BETTER YOU! 

Meet Jon Gajewski, a military veteran who has been working for ADT. In the time between leaving the military and his arrival at Core Club his weight and energy levels fluctuated. We noticed Jon's hardwork and dedication and wanted to make sure it did not go unnoticed! 

Let's see what Jon has to say:

"His start up at Core Club gave him the motivation and drive to reach his goals and keep moving forward. In 2017 he successfully ran 2 obstacle races. His latest accomplishment was to run 100 miles in November. In December he set another goal to become a personal trainer to help inspire and motivate others to achieve their goals."

The Benefits of Pull-ups

Pull-ups are as important to your upper body as squats are to your lower body. Here are a few different variations to pull-ups:

1. The most common is the overhand wide grip pull-up. This type will target your lats the most.

2. Close grip pull-ups will target your lats, shoulders, forearms and biceps.

3. Reverse grip pull-up (also known as chin ups) will focus more on just your biceps.

4. GET OUT OR YOUR COMFORT ZONE! Assisted pull-ups are a great place to start!

Any variation of a pull-up is the perfect exercise for strengthening your grip. Even if it is just a little bit of progress each week, before you know it, you will be able to do a real pull-up without a band. Iif you are not using a band you may feel tempted to hold a weight/kettlebell in your feet to challenge yourself!

Here is a Quick Guide on how to use a Pull-up Band for an Assisted Pull-up
