What is Fusion Flex??
Before we discuss Fusion Flex...
Did you know the average person gains seven pounds between Thanksgiving and the New Year? Granted most people then lose an average of five pounds shortly thereafter. This is still an increase of 2 pounds in a year. If every year you gain two pounds, you will find yourself 20 pounds heavier in ten years.
This is one of the many reason Canton Club is hosting the 30 Day Challenge during this time period! We want you to stay fit and if nothing else, maintain your weight this holiday season.
What is Fusion Flex?
Fusion Flex is a strength training class. The format of the class is three rounds, each round nine minutes long and composed of three compound moves. Compound moves are those which utilize more than one muscle group at a time.

"Before you have practiced, the theory is useless. After you have practiced, the theory is obvious."
If you plan to be active for life, you need to practice yoga. The benefits of yoga are endless. To name a few, yoga
- Improves muscle tone, strength, flexibility and stamina
- Aids in injury prevention
- Reduces physical/mental stress and tension
- Improves concentration
- Reduces body fat
- Stimulates the immune system
- Improves circulation
- Creates a sense of well being
To complete the challenge you have to go to one Air Yoga class and two classes in the Mind/Body Zone. You will get a taste of Canton Club's yoga program. But don't stop there, OVERINDULGE! Try yoga with all of instructors, Cecilia, David, Anita, Christina, and Brandie. Each instructor offers a unique approach to yoga. Make it a long term goal to incorporate yoga into your fitness regimen at least twice per month. For beginners, we do offer Yoga for Beginners every Tuesday at 6 pm.
After you have practiced, I guarantee "the theory will be obvious".

CAN is a word of POWER
"Did is a word of achievement. Won't is a word of retreat. Might is a word of bereavement. Can't is a word of defeat. Out is a word of duty. Try is a word of each hour. Can is a word of power."
YOU CAN!
You have signed up for the challenge. You have set the goal. To achieve, YOU MUST HAVE A PLAN. The next 30 days of your life are going to be busy. Schedule you work outs as if they are doctor's appointments. Mark the 20 times you will go to the gym on your calendar.
First identify the dates and times of the Air Yoga, FitWall, and TRX trainings you will attend. (you should sign up in advance at the front desk to reserve your spot for these classes) Next identify the 2 cycling classes, the 2 classes in the mind/body zone, and the 4 classes in the group X zone you will be attending. Finally, fill in the other 9 open gym visits. You can use these visits to go to more group trainings, classes, or just come in for a workout on the gym floor.
If you have yet to take advantage of your free personal training session that you are entitled to as a member, do it now! The training will count as one of your 20 days.
