There’s a wide variety of group fitness classes offered by most gyms. Classes include step aerobics, cycling, cardioboxing, abs, floor aerobics, Bosu ball classes, group weight lifting, and many others. There are many benefits to participating in group fitness such as:
1. They’re set at a specific time, so you can schedule it on your calendar and reserve that time for exercising. You can’t put off going to the gym for another hour when the cardioboxing class begins at 7:00.
2. Its an opportunity to receive exercise instructions from a certified teacher. There is usually an instructor and maybe 10 – 20 people in the class, so there is someone there to teach you the proper form and technique so that you can get a good workout and do it safely. It’s an excellent way to work many muscle groups, and you don’t have to be out in the middle of the weight room surrounded by other people.
3. You’re guilted in to staying. There are times when I would go to the gym and get there and realize they I didn’t feel like exercising, and feel like going home after a short, non-intense workout. Well I’d look pretty goofy doing that 10 minutes into a group cardio class. So I would just stick it out and complete the session, and burn a lot more calories.
