Age-Appropriate Exercises Gain Ground in 2011 - msnbc.com
According to the article linked above, each age group has an appropriate "fitness program" all their own. It also states that the overall goal of many fitness enthusiasts these days is overall health and well-being. This might also be restated as a general type of fitness.
While I don't argue that each age group has differing concerns, does each really need it's own fitness program? Doesn't everyone need to learn certain basic skills? Wouldn't all age groups benefit from from a program that is based on fundamental human movements, ie squatting and deadlifting?
What are your thoughts?
Upcoming Events
Group Shoot Out:
We are once again getting together to shoot our guns at random junk and stuff in the open desert of Nevada! On Sunday, February 27th, we will be heading down to Sloan to waste perfectly good ammo and have a good time! We will meet at the gym at 12pm and head down from there. As always, we will have an impromptu dinner thing afterward!
If you would like to come out with us make sure you sign up at the front desk. Also be sure to bring plenty of targets! We didn't really plan ahead last time and ran outta junk to shoot at!
Foam Wow Clinic with Dr. Josh Satterlee:
Many of us have been rather anxious to attend the Foam Rolling Clinic that our good friend, Dr. Josh Satterlee puts out! We have set the date for the clinic to Saturday the 12th at 10am. If you are interested in participating be sure to sign up at the front desk! Cost is $25 without the purchase of a foam roller and $50 with the purchase!
Wow... really cool picture! Good job to everyone who entered the weight lifting competition on saturday... and to all who survived the ridiculously brutal team WOD at CF702!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing pics like this. It's not often that we get to see ourselves doing the movements. It's nice to see how we're doing it, so we can see the parts that we need to work on. Thanks for sharing!
