Circuit Training for Strong Bones
Annalisa will be leading a new and different type of bone building /strength training class at the Yoga Center beginning on January 8. We will be using the Super Slow approach to building muscle This  method incorporates very slow repetition speeds as compared to traditional resistance training methods, with emphasis on minimizing acceleration to reduce the force the body is exposed to during exercise and improve muscular loading. Super Slow workouts typically consist of one set of each exercise carried out to complete muscle fatigue.
This approach to building strength is appropriate for any fitness level because you will be lifting relatively light weights, but lifting them so slowly that you will go to muscle fatigue within two minutes. Muscle fatigue indicates that you are building muscle AND strengthening bones.  If you have osteopenia, this is a must!

Give it a try on Tuesday, January 8 at 10 AM. This first session is FREE.
Classes are also given on Fridays at 8:30 AM
Questions? email: AnnalisaV@gmail.com
