You’ve committed to a healthier year!...now what?
It’s easy to get lost in the shuffle of new years resolutions and the reality of incorporating a full lifestyle change to your routine. For many, going overboard and jumping in to a restrictive diet or grueling workout serious leaves them feeling the fitness blues, unable to sustain the program long enough to achieve the desired results. Therefore, East Highlands Fitness strives to be more than just a gym. We want to help you achieve total wellness beyond this year so that your healthy new lifestyle truly allows you to achieve a happier, healthier you! Consider taking a test beyond a scale with our InBody 270 Composition Analyzer to assess your true health with see your body fat percentage, total pounds of body fat, lean body mass, and your basal metabolic rate.
Our personal training staff is not only certified as professional personal trainers, they engage in various athletic endeavors that allow them to practice their craft. The benefits of hiring a personal trainer include learning proper form, having an instructor create a customized workout plan for you, and a coach to help you learn the best nutrition and style of eating for your body and goals. It is important to learn correct form to avoid injury, an unfortunate reality of improper training or taking on too much weight too quickly. Not everyone feels ready to jump into personal training which is why we offer various fitness classes and BootCamps. These are not only great ways to learn from our trainers but a wonderful way to meet our East Highlands Fitness community. Meeting our other members can help you to find a workout partner, make new friends with similar fitness mindsets, and help you feel more comfortable in the gym.
Fitness OnDemand is not something every gym offers but we wanted to include innovative ways to encourage everyone of every fitness level to feel comfortable working towards their goals. We have a designated room where you can stream loads of fitness content from spin class to Zumba and everything in between. Many popular programs you have seen on TV or heard about from your fitfriends can be found here and used at your own pace. Need a break? Hit pause! Not feeling the style of workout? Choose another! This is a fantastic option for people looking for diversity in their workouts and increasing your fitness level at your own pace.
Lastly, we include elements to our gym solely geared to your overall wellness. We have a massage therapist on site so that you can schedule an appointment and help your muscles relax and recover. According to the Mayo Clinic, massage has benefits for conditions like Anxiety, Digestive disorders, Fibromyalgia, Headaches, Insomnia related to stress, Myofascial pain syndrome, Soft tissue strains or injuries, Sports injuries, Temporomandibular joint pain. Our infrared sauna is unlimited with our Premium Membership and has many benefits on your path to wellness. Unlike traditional saunas, infrared heats your body directly without heating or steaming the air around you. Raising your core temperature helps your body detoxify, relax, and promotes healing and improved circulation.
We can’t wait to encourage and support you as you work towards your goals. If you have questions or need help with any equipment, please visit our friendly front desk for more information.
