Getting Fit in the New Year!

By: Jonathan Jones 01/07/2013

Every New Year it seems like most of us have the same resolutions: get fit and eat healthy. Like most people, the way that we try to accomplish our goal of exercising more is by joining a gym. I recently had the opportunity to check out one of our local hidden gem gyms. Most locals have heard of the Libertyville Sports Complex, as we have been there at one time or another. However, did you know that the Libertyville Sports Complex has a fitness Center? I did not until recently. They are open all week like a regular gym and are currently offering a membership fee of $365 per year, which is $1 a day! Other amenities include group exercise classes, personnel training, weight room, cardio equipment and a 1/4 mile walking & running track. Their fitness classes range from basic cardio, indoor cycling, strength & flexibility to yoga and zumba. Joining is not for everyone, but this one seems to fit my lifestyle and is a perfect neighborhood gym.

Here is a quick video of my experience and some workout exercises that everyone can do.
