Fun New Plans for '09
We are doing more to make Plaza Fitness at Stuyvesant Plaza a place you look forward coming
to! In 2009, we have several events planned which offer fun and
fitness with the opportunity to develop new friendships. February
will feature "Around the Plaza," where everyone can
participate. A life-sized board game keeps you motivated to move,
and you'll be able to advance around "the board" by
exercising regularly. Several squares you land on will give you a
coupon from one of our Stuyvesant Plaza merchants. The first person
around the board will receive our grand prize of complimentary personal
training throughout April! We are currently taking sign-ups at
the front desk until we begin on Monday, February 2nd.
In May we are planning a bicycle excursion and in June we will be
inviting you on a high peak hiking adventure. There's no
time to waste, so start training for these excursions for fun,
socialization, and all the benefits of regular exercise.

Success
Story
|
|
Jannette began working out at Plaza Fitness almost
2 years ago. Her goals at the time included losing
10 pounds and enhancing her core and upper body strength.
Jannette was looking forward this fall to a Hawaiian vacation in
December, she committed to a frequent exercise schedule to lose
weight. How hard did she work? For 7 weeks, she and James
did intense half-hour training sessions three times a week, followed by
a half-hour of cardio. On her "days off" she followed a
20-40 minute fitness video with another half-hour of cardio. She
took one day off a week.
If you're counting, that's 6 days a week of cardio, which is a lot of
work. But in 7 weeks, she lost 11 pounds! Jannette
wore a bikini for the first time in her life during her vacation, and
now she's looking forward to resuming her training. Are you ready
to commit to change? Call us at 482-2266 to schedule your
training session with one of our fitness professionals.

Nutiva Hemp Protein Powder
Move over soy and whey, there's a new protein in
town. Nutiva Hemp Protein Powder is an optimal drink mix derived
from hemp seed, a true superfood that provides a complete meat- and
dairy-free protein along with minerals like iron, magnesium, and
zinc. One serving of plain Hemp Protein Powder contains 11 grams
of raw organic protein, 66% of it from edestin, a bioactive protein
which is easiest to digest. It is also very high in dietary fiber
and contains the perfect ratio of the essential fatty acids omega 3 and
omega 6. Plaza Fitness now offers Nutiva Hemp Shakes, delicious
organic blends of hemp and other nutritious ingredients. They are
the perfect addition to a quick and nutritious breakfast, or an optimal
fuel after an intense workout.
