Kids are going back to school it’s time for adults to get back to a routine! If you haven’t been taking GXA classes for a while we would love to have you back. Offering many options for your comfort zone : in-person outdoors only, zoom, and workouts on demand.
Hope to see many familiar faces back to our safe and fun community that will help you get through the winter. With Covid continuing who would want to go back to a stinky gym? And we know at home alone is not as challenging nor fun. So join the group and let’s crash some goals together.

WORKOUT TIPS FOR THE SUMMER HEAT
Invest in some wicking clothes: Lightweight, breathable, wicking clothes are a must. They'll pull moisture away from your skin, so you really do feel cooler. Wearing a hat to keep the hot sun off your head and face also helps.
Take a cold shower: I know it seems a little odd to shower before a workout, but the cold water will cool you down. Leave your hair wet and pop it in a bun, so when you head outside water dripping down your face and neck will feel so refreshing. If you have short hair, carry a water bottle with you and squeeze a little on top of your head whenever you need a little cooling boost.
Change up the type of workout to fit the temps: On super hot and humid days, choose cooler cardio activities like biking in the wind or swimming in cold water.
Exercise in cooler places: Hit the trails in shady woods or along a breezy beach shoreline. It can be 10 or more degrees cooler than the sunny streets in your neighborhood.
Exercise in the rain: It's so exhilarating to feel a little sprinkle on your skin while out for a run or bike ride. If it's thundering and lightening, head home quick; you don't want to be out running in an electrical storm.
Shorten or split up your workouts: Summertime isn't the best time to push yourself, so if you can only handle 10 minutes at a time, do what you can, or exercise twice in one day.
Slow down your pace: If you're set on getting in a 30-minute workout, move with less intensity or do intervals to avoid overheating. Remember it's OK to take breaks too.
Drink water all day, not just before or after your workout: Staying hydrated will help prevent some of the symptoms you may experience from exercising in heat such as dizziness, stomach cramps, and headaches. During your run, sip four to eight ounces of water every 15 to 20

Since 2010 for the first time the CDC has changed the rules on the frequency of exercise due to the pandemic. Instead of 3 times a week 30-60 min of exercise, people now should do 5 days a week because of all the staying home and sitting front of screens.
Are you doing that? And don;t say "I don't have time" because all the hours of not having to drive to places can give you that time to take care of you.
