                     Enjoyable Fitness Workouts
      In a  recent article found in Women’s Sports & Fitness, there was a
lengthy display of outdoor and indoor fitness exercises nation wide  that were
actually enjoyable.  The first of these energizing activities is called Bikram Yoga.
Bikram Yoga uses the technique of heat to maximize its effects.  Taking place in
a 107-degree studio the participants work on their yoga postures (the tree to
name one), along with trying out many types of tension-relieving stretches to
enhance flexibility.  Such strong levels of heat are used because the hotter one
is,  the more pliable their muscles will become.    Another type of excercise
included is called the  Denver winter Sports Conditioning.  This includes the
participants wearing/carrying weights and bands as they make their ways up the
mountain.   This technique is good for those who enjoy the act of mountain
climbing and to improve their strength and mobility for future more difficult
climbs.  In Chicago there is the Athletic Total Conditioning group.  This is a team
taught group that is packed with military-style drills including things like running
in small squares, throwing medicine balls and jumping over low hurdles.  The
class cultivates coordination, endurance, and strength.   On the other side of the
country there is the New York Urban Rebounding group.  This class is for those

and abs.  Rebounding is working against gravity and helps to detox the body by
flushing out the wastes.

In Washington, D.C. boxing is used to not only work out the body, but to
de-stress also.  These 90-minute are broken down into sections.  The first
section is devoted to the basic things like throwing punches, ducking imaginary
blows, and doing some fancy footwork.  Then 30-minutes on the punching bag
with a partner, and finally ab work outs on the floor.    In Atlanta there is a group
called the Atlanta Trekkers.  This group goes through an hour long treadmill
class.  It’s focus is on intense hill-training where the treadmills are elevated to a
15 percent incline.  This group is good for those interested in prepping for
springtime hiking.  Finally, for a workout a little closer to home there is the
Boston Kickboxing group.  This high intensity...
