Personal Training Promotions: 3 Steps to a Fitter YOU this summer!

1. LEARN YOUR WAY AROUND THE GYM. How? Sign up for a FREE orientation to the MAC and/or Hemenway. In 45 minutes with a certified personal trainer, you’ll learn your way around the gym and how to use the basic machines safely and properly (read: you’ll look like you totally belong here).

2. LET A PRO TELL YOU HOW FIT YOU REALLY ARE. In a small group setting, we’ll assess your weight, body composition, strength, flexibility, and cardio endurance. We’ll make some recommendations on how to maintain what’s good and how to make the “less-than-good” better. This one is on us – no charge.

3. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR SPECIAL PRICED PERSONAL TRAINING. It’s not just for the rich and famous, you know. It’s a totally customized fitness program crafted just for YOU – your goals, your schedule, and your needs. There is a charge for private training, but we are giving first timers a break on the price.

WANT MORE INFO? Pick up a flier at the front desk at MAC and HEM for details about all of this (including how to sign up). You can also check out our website http://recreation.gocrimson.com/fitness/fitteryou
