I’m Getting Fit With Best Fitness Before My Big Birthday

I turning the BIG 3-0 in a couple of months and, while that milestone comes with inherent wisdom, I know it's a little harder to lose weight and really get in shape after you enter your thirties.

So, I was pretty excited to get my free fitness assessment at Best Fitness and start working out with my trainer, Kwame.

Before the hour-long assessment, I figured he was going to tell me I really needed to work on my core and my arms (because I do). I enjoy running and hot yoga, but I know (or thought I knew) where my weaknesses were.

Surprise! Instead of handing me weights right after I told him I wanted to work on my arms, my trainer could tell specifically that my shoulders were tight and gave me a specialized workout to help that.

Here's a look the progress I've made so far:

Before I started working out with a Best Fitness trainer, I thought I was pretty much in shape, not a bodybuilder by any means, but in shape. In a few workouts, I figured out how many muscles I haven’t been utilizing at all.

I'm really impressed with Best Fitness and how their fitness centers have evolved:

• I live pretty close to the Schenectady location and I used to work out at Best Fitness. They've really improved! They’ve added more machines, more classes, and different classes I haven’t seen anywhere else.
• Their trainers are accessible to anyone at the gym. Anyone can ask any trainer they see a question about working out. Usually, that time costs extra but they said they’d rather their patrons use the equipment correctly and ask questions than hurt themselves.
• The philosophy behind the free fitness assessment is that they want you to make the most of your time at the gym: They are going to help you target the exercises you need to get the results you want without wasting time on ineffective workouts.

Overall, I didn’t realize how much better it would make me feel in just a few workouts. It’s nice to be back on a schedule again, to work on my body, and to feel good moving like I used to when I was on a regime before.

I can't wait to see how much more progress I make next month! I know some people might be a little shy about signing up for an assessment, but as they told me at Best Fitness, people who don't have a plan usually aren't successful. So, if you're committed to investing the time to workout, you might as well make that time count.
