STAIRWAY TO REMEMBER

There were a total of 2,071 stairs in the world trade center. This personal challenge is to accumulate 2,071 stairs during the week of 9/7 – 9/12 in remembrance of those who lost their lives climbing the towers during 9/11. Members can use the Climb Mill or Stepper machines to track their steps. Members may also offer their own tribute by adding a few extra climbs up the stairs at the YMCA during that week. Choose to track your stairs towards our grand total, or remember 9/11 personally as your own tribute.

W.O.W.—WOMEN ON WEIGHTS

Work with Wellness Coach, Jesse Kelley, as he teaches you the proper way to exercise using free weights, one muscle group at a time. A     different muscle group is targeted each week   using free weights. You will be taken through a range of 3-4 different exercises for each muscle group. Plenty of hands-on practice doing the movements correctly and safely, all under the  supervision of a coach with 26 years of personal experience using free weights.
