Another fitness class idea: Barre Strength at Flex + Fit Charlotte

I've been hearing so many conversations lately about how to avoid gaining weight
this time of year. It is not rocket science. You have to burn more calories than
you take in. If you are going to eat more you need to work out more. Sorry.
There is good news. You don't have to settle for the same workouts you've been
doing. There are so many great classes in and around Charlotte and Lake Norman
that you can try. I wrote about the Air Fit class at Flex+Fit Charlotte the
other day and it is great. Today I tried a new one, Barre Strength!
My legs, thighs, hips are loving me and hating me because it was an
incredible workout. I highly recommend this class! Let me know what you think if
you check it out. The actual class description is at the bottom of the post as
well as the link to the schedule. Check out all of the pictures from today at http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.391127654303534.90605.140844645998504&&l=9ad6ed6cf8

Every now and then I hear someone say "I can't find a type of exercise that I

or for those looking to expand their "fitness horizons". Flex + Fit offers a
wide variety of classes and activities which I'll talk about below but first let
me share some pictures from one of my favorite classes Air Yoga!! I've had
several adventurous friends experience it with me and they loved it too. You can
try Air Fit or Air Yoga.......... Air Fit was even voted the best fitness class
in Charlotte.

Pilates is not just for girls

When it comes to strengthening your core I don't know anything better thanPilates. I just wanted to make sure that the BOYS know they can do it too. Pilates is not just for girls. Check out my friend Barry Burgess on the reformer in our "duet session" at True Balance Pilates Studio in Cornelius, NC.
