If you haven’t been to a top gym in a while you may not have heard of group fitness training. If you are someone that likes working out with others, wants to learn proper form when completing exercises and using training equipment, and you want to be able to work at your own level then this is the class for you.
What Is Group Fitness Training?
As the name implies this is a small group training program that allows you to work on strength and conditioning but without all the dance moves and high impact gyrations that are a part of the typical fitness class.
In group fitness training the emphasis is on strength training through the use of specific types of equipment that you can use in a class format. These include kettlebells, dumbbells, medicine balls, TRX bands, ropes and Prowler sleds. The specific type of equipment you are using including the weight or intensity level is left up to you with the instructor providing insight into how to correctly use the equipment as well as specific movement and exercises.
Each class starts with a warm-up followed by a progressive exercise component using the various types of equipment. The class ends with a cool down and stretching session.
Motivation
People that are motivated by encouragement and a bit more social aspect to their workout will really enjoy group fitness training. Most gyms that offer these programs have set times that are ongoing, so you can schedule your workout to include additional strength training before or after or just take in the class.
Some of the top gyms providing group fitness training also allow you to book private sessions for your own group. This is a great option for business that want to help employees in a wellness based program or for a team, organization or bunch of friends that just want to get in great physical shape, lose weight, or increase their flexibility and strength.
Group fitness training is just one option to consider in your fitness goals. It combines the social aspect of a class with the strength and conditioning benefits you get from a great workout using a range of different equipment.
