Snowboarding Workout in a Group-Exercise Class

by Monique Savin

Extreme Fitness has teamed up with Joe Costa, director of Mind to Muscle Sports Medicine, to help you carve some curves with a new group exercise class.

FIT2SHRED is a sport specific series designed to develop snow-boarding skills and muscular endurance. Wanna-be snow boarders will improve foot speed agility, core strength, leg power, and balance using a variety of athletic equipment, including BOSU balls, hurdles, agility ladders, cones and boards. All exercises aim to produce fast, reactive movements needed for muscular endurance.

Classes are offered exclusively at Extreme Fitness Richmond starting January 15th, 2010 and are free for members. Non-members can get a free class by visiting Extreme Fitness.ca.
