Mandolyn's Boot Camp Workout
The most efficient way to burn calories and fat faster, and still have fun doing it!  A fast-paced, military style, interval class that incorporates: Weight Training ~ Calisthenics ~ Cardio ~ Abs ~ Push ups, Jumping jacks, Football style drills & sprints.

If you’re a fitness enthusiast, or you’re simply bored with your stationery workout, Mandolyn’s Boot Camp Workout may be the “boot” your workout needs.

The class is a fast-paced military style interval training class that incorporates calisthenics such as push-ups, jumping jacks, crunches, running in place and football style drills along with weight toning. In between strength training drills, cardio is targeted with aerobic steps. This method is the most efficient way to increase the intensity of your workouts and still have fun doing it. Alternating quickly between movements helps burn calories and fat faster. Boot camp workouts are efficient because you work your entire body-heart and muscles-by going from one workout to another with no rest.  The difference between this and other workouts lies in the intensity.

WHEN: Thursdays, with a free class on January 7th, the 1st Thursday of each month will be free to new sign ups.
TIME: 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm
FEE: $20/month
WHERE:

Mandolyn's Step Aerobics
Has your cardio workout reached a plateau?  Are you doing the same elliptical training or running regiment each week, but seeing few physical results?  Rev up your cardio workout with Mandolyn’s Step Aerobics! This class is a medium-high impact aerobics regiment that targets weight loss with the use of an elevated platform, which can be tailored to your specific needs by inserting risers under the step.  Along with the step, I add a few metabolic drills in order to jack that metabolism, a few hand weights for toning, and tons of core work…and we have a fun class that targets all those ‘problem’ areas!  And dont worry if you are ‘rythmically’ challenged, this class is about the workout, not the choreography and footwork!  Compliment your cardiovascular routine with this class today!

WHEN: Tuesdays 5:30-6:30pm, starting January 5th
WHERE: 
Sheridan Community Center at Old Woodland Park School
FEE $20/month
