Family Fitness Fun

On Saturday, May 30 Team Xcelerate offered a FREE FitFunCamp (adult) and Youth Athletic Development class in Destrehan, LA at the East Bank Bridge Park.

Coach Phillip Glotser had the kids working out in one area learning how to jump and land, cartwheels, hops to cones and several other fun activities.

While the kids were having fun the adults were on and around the basketball court going through a rigorous workout which included a circuit of Squats, Lunges and Reverse Lunges all 10 times each followed by Core exercises which included Front Pillar Holds, Reverse Pillar Holds, Pushups and running in place in between each Core exercise. They also performed wall push-ups and tricep dips using benches at the picnic tables.

The program ended with the adults and kids enjoying some group activities using color patterns. Each adult paired up with one or two children and hopped, skipped or ran to various colored cones on command.

It was a great way to start our Saturday. Keep an eye out for more FREE Saturday classes from Team Xcelerate and/or join our 7 week Summer Fitness program starting on Sunday, June 7, 2009. FitFunCamp and Youth Athletic Development programs will be offered. Contact teamxyg@gmail.com to learn more.
