If you ever get tired of using the machines in the gym over and over again, there are great workout alternatives to get a good cardio session in for the day. The Rec Center might not offer all of these classes but you can always do them at home!
●Booty Burning Ballet
A new workout that's trending in the gym classes is booty burning ballet classes. You don't have to be a prima ballerina to take the class. Ballet is a great way to trim, tone and sculpt the small muscles in your legs that you never use. Ballet is a great way to stay lean and healthy.
●Zumba
The Rec Center now offers four Zumba classes! Zumba is so much fun, it doesn't even feel like a workout. But have you ever wondered how many calories you burn in a one hour Zumba session? If you go to any online weight calculator, it can estimate how many calories you have burned. So for a person who weighed 150 pounds and the workout was an hour long, you'd be burning around 430 calories.
●Kickboxing
Kickboxing is a great form of cardio. It gets your blood pumping and makes you work up a sweat. So with a one hour kickboxing session and a patron weighing 150 pounds, that would be around 740 calories burned.
●Pilates
Sculpt your legs, arms, core and increase your flexibility with Pilates. It's a great way to release stress too! A one hour session burns around 200-400 calories based on the intensity of the class.
