16 To place editorial email [email protected] CROSSFIT STEWARTON LAUNCHES NEW, GIRLS ONLY FITNESS CLASS you may have heard of crossfit and decided that it's definitely not for you. you might be thinking, "i couldn't even do a push up, never mind a handstand push up!" or, "i need to get fit first, then i'll come along." Here's the good news - no one is expecting you to do handstand push ups, clean and jerks or muscle ups on your first session. (Let alone expect you to know what these terms mean!) More good news - there are scaled options for every movement and no one is too unfit, old, overweight or uncoordinated to get involved! Whether you're a new mum (or an old mum!!) looking to get back on track, or a fitness fanatic searching for something a little bit different, classes can be tailored to suit you. Saturday mornings at CrossFit are a relaxed (ok, maybe relaxed isn't the right word!), informal and fun hour spent with friends who share one aim - to get fit and enjoy doing it! The class starts at 8am with group warm up and mobility time, followed by some fun skill work and a high intensity workout to finish up. So if you like the sound of joining our friendly community but are too intimidated by the heavy weights and advanced gymnastics skills, our girls class gives you the ideal opportunity to try it out in an environment you can be totally at ease with. Coach Shona is a mum of 2, and having discovered CrossFit shortly after the birth of her second baby, soon discovered the importance of joining a fitness community whereby fellow members encourage and support each other, and coaches strive to bring out the best in each person who walks through their door. Shona looks forward to welcoming ladies of all levels and abilities and promises to make it a challenging and inspiring morning whatever stage you are at in your fitness journey! Join our Facebook group "CrossFit Stewarton Girls" or email [email protected] to find out more! Saturday morning too early for you? Get in touch to register your interest for another time slot.
