I was chatting with a girlfriend of mine on the phone on my way to spin class the other day and she goes, “Do you have to do that?” I told her no, but I really liked eating cookies during pregnancy and I felt like the two offset each other. I love group exercise classes and running, but I also really like dessert.
Unfortunately for me, once LittleFit arrives, my group ex days will probably be limited for awhile. When it comes to marathon training, I religiously follow the calendar provided by my coach. I’m going to need something like that when I am cleared to workout again after labor.
I created this training plan for my SFit Gym members for the month of December. It features 3 different levels and combines at home workouts with a couple opportunities to exercise outside your apartment or palace if you are like me.
I know classes can expensive so today, I’m giving away a one month free membership to ClassPass! To enter, leave a comment below sharing your favorite boutique studio or group exercise class. This is only available to new members and those of you who live in current ClassPass cities – or travel to CP friendly cities. See the end of the post for full giveaway terms.
You can also enter on Instagram by tagging a friend in my latest Instagram pic announcing the giveaway. If you love ClassPass as much as I do, it makes for a great holiday gift too!
Back to the SFit Gym…
- Level 1: Beginners, Busy Professionals, Students or New Moms
- You are new to exercise or you simply don’t have the time to fit it in from long commutes to a new baby. There are 3 rest days, and most workouts last 15-20 minutes. One day is just 10 minutes and another 30-45 minutes of cardio (your choice, could be a run, spin class or walk).
- Level 2: Intermediate Level
- You exercise regularly and are ready to kick it up a notch. Workouts still are only between 10-45 minutes, but most are around 15-20. You have one rest day a week, and two cardio days to do outside of your home.
- Level 3: Challenger
- You exercise regularly and love to go the extra mile. You have one rest day a week. Some days, you do two workout videos but still you’re only working out about 20-45 minutes a day. This program is tough but will get you results the fastest.
