When the wind blows and the temperature drops, or, on the flip side, when the sun scorches and the heat rises, it can be extremely difficult to work out. When it’s cold out, all you want to do is snuggle in bed with your cat, and when it’s warm out, the last thing you want to do is sweat to death. Yet, you know the importance of exercise and how it can benefit you. So what do you do?
Major Chiropractic and Sports Science in Wheaton holds the answer: group fitness classes. Group fitness classes are a great way to get motivated to work out when that is the absolute last way you want to spend your time. Below, we’ll go over some of the benefits of group fitness classes, and we invite you to try ours today!
THE BENEFITS OF GROUP FITNESS CLASSES
Motivation
Group fitness classes motivate you to show up and to put in your best effort. People in your class can be inspiring and supportive. Plus, you will be able to feed off the group vibe when the last thing you want to do is another lunge. Having others go through the same motions as you most definitely helps you to do your best and to burn more calories as a result.
Accountability
Going to a group fitness class has an inherent accountability built-inbuilt in. Odds are, you signed up for the class ahead of time so you now feel obligated to go. This is a good thing. It is now on your calendar, as opposed to telling yourself you’ll hit the gym “some time.” If you go to the same group fitness class regularly, you will probably have some friends or workout buddies who will expect you to show up. If you don’t show up, you will probably get asked why. Also, your group fitness instructor may ask you why as well if you don’t show up for a few days.
Guidance
Group fitness instructors all have been certified at some level, and most are insanely good at motivating and encouraging the participants in their classes. It definitely helps in your class if you have an instructor who pushes and motivates you to succeed and is a great example for your fitness journey. In addition, you can expect to get great coaching on form, which keeps you safe, and you don’t have to think about which exercises to do. You just follow along.
