5 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD TRY YOGA
If you’ve ever wondered what’s really going on behind those closed doors, why everyone comes out looking all relaxed and serene, and if yoga really is as great as they say, read this article from ACE Fitness to learn why it might be worth your time to try it!

PrimeTime offers a few yoga classes:  Gentle Yoga on Tuesdays at 8:00 with Sarah, Holy Yoga on Fridays at noon with Rachel, and also as a wonderful finisher to Pedal, Praise, and Prana on Tuesdays at 9:30. Check them all out here!

Zumba Happy Hour! (1)
ZUMBA IS SHAKING THINGS UP AT PRIMETIME!
Thursday, June 30, 6:00 p.m.
FREE!!!!  FREE!!!  FREE!!  FREE! 
 
What’s it all about?
Zumba is perfect for everybody and Every Body! Each Zumba® class is designed to bring people together to sweat it on.
How It Works
We take the “work” out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party. Once the Latin and World rhythms take over, you’ll see why Zumba® Fitness classes are often called exercise in disguise. Super effective? Check. Super fun? Check and check.
 
 
Benefits
A total workout, combining all elements of fitness – cardio, muscle conditioning, balance and flexibility, boosted energy and a serious dose of awesome each time you leave class.

NATIONAL EAT YOUR VEGETABLES DAY
Friday, June 17
vegetable_basket.jpg
As part of a main meal or as a snack, vegetables can be enjoyed in a variety of ways.  Each vegetable has it’s own significant nutritional content  with varying proportions of vitamins such as Vitamin A, Vitamin K and Vitamin B6, provitamins, dietary minerals andcarbohydrates.   They also contain a variety of other phytochemicals, some of which are antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral and anticarcinogenic properties.  All this good stuff with minimal fat!  Many vegetables also contain fiber which is important for gastrointestinal function.
When eating a diet consisting of the recommended amounts of fruits and vegetables, one may experience a lower risk of heart disease and Type 2 diabetes, decreased bone loss and protection against some cancers.  In addition, the potassium provided may help prevent the formation of kidney stones.  And we can’t forget about enjoying healthier hair and skin!
It is recommended by the USDA Dietary Guidelines for Americans to consume 3 to 5 servings of vegetables per day.  This recommendation may vary however, depending on age and gender.  For most vegetables, one serving is equivalent of 1/2 to 1 cup and can be eaten either raw or cooked.

STAFF RECIPE FILE
A peek into the PrimeTime staff kitchens
Here are some favorite veggies and oh-so-easy recipes of your PrimeTime trainers and instructors…
Julie:  Roasted asparagus w/ EVOO salt and pepper.  Once done, topped with Spanish almonds.
Cammie:  Beets, roasted whole in skin in aluminum foil, tightly wrapped, on 450 until a knife slides through
Rachel:  Green, purple, yellow cauliflower drizzled in olive oil, salt and garlic powder on 400′ until crispy brown with red pepper flakes sprinkled on top. Yum!!!
Karien:  Carrots!
 marion:  Edamame and artichokes!!

 

Sarah:  Probably asparagus because it’s easy to cook.  And sweet potatoes.

Homemade parsnip “fries”
Meredith:  Eggplant . . . it’s great sautéed, baked, roasted with tomatoes, or mashed up as baba ghanoush.  And roasted parsnip “fries” – simply slice a few large parsnips into strips, splash with olive oil and sprinkle with cracked pepper.  Cover and bake on about 400 until tender….. delicious!

Do you feel lost in the gym?  Have you gazed in wonder at Jacob’s Ladder every time you come in? Can you still not find the water fountains (you know they have to be here, somewhere!)?  Does the thought of being alone in the weight room send you into an anxiety attack?
Join a PrimeTime trainer on the second Saturday of each month for a free orientation session to unravel the mysteries in the gym!  You’ll learn things like how to work the equipment, how to make seating adjustments, and where the Emergency Stop buttons, and Panic Buttons, are!
(Note, this is designed to be an instructional hour, not a workout.  Feel free to schedule a training session if you need assistance putting together a workout that works for YOU!)
