Basic Strength Training Orientations
Looking for an efficient workout? Want to learn how to use the machines safely and
properly? Register for a Strength Training Orientation at the MAC or Hemenway. Strength
Training orientations are 45-minute sessions, during which members are led through a row
of circuit
machines by a certified personal trainer. During the Basic STO, members will be provided
with a list of the circuit machines along with information on technique, moderation,
progression, and machine adjustments. Please note that these are not customized personal
training sessions. Members will not be shown how to use dumbbells or cable machines, and
will not be exercising during the STO.
