We adore JCC Rockland and what they offer to the community. Their Early Childhood Center is top notch, Camp offerings that are diverse and engaging, Fitness 450 and their fitness center. I know that even with all I have mentioned, I have only scratched the surface. I was recently invited to come back and tour the new and improved fitness manager with Lauren. If you are interested they are having a Love Yourself Love Your Health open house with free classes for BOTH kids and adults on Monday 2/19/18 (JCCROCKLAND.ORG/LOVERSVP).
The center looks very different immediately with a fresh coat of paint and new flooring, but the changes that have been made are more than just superficial. When you first walk in on the left hand side, there is a whole new circuit of high tech machines from TechnoGym that have just been added.
These machines are beyond cool. They are resistance based, so they glide along with your abilities, and each machine has one specific exercise. This enables users to complete a circuit, and helps with eliminating lines at certain machines. It gets better. The machines have small screens on them that serve several purposes.
They have instructions as to how to set up and use each of the pieces of equipment safely, and correctly. Once in use, there is a fun little graphic that looks kind of like a video game to keep you working at optimum levels. What I really love is that it also has the capability to sync with your JCC Rockland App and track your progress, movements, and record your workouts. This App also works alongside the trainers at the Fitness Center to create your workouts in the Smart Start Program, or the Fitness Challenges (coming 3/25). Additionally you can check out what classes are coming up and set reminders to attend (which is really cool cause they offer SO many classes).
The fitness center is immaculate and includes specific rooms where you can stretch, lift free weights, train for various competitions, and take their WIDE array of classes (click here). What really attracts me to it, is how impeccable the space is. Taken care of so well offering equipment to meet the needs of all ages and stages. No matter what your fitness level there is so much available to challenge you within safe parameters. Having had 3 major knee surgeries myself, I was particularly interested in the cardio equipment that would allow me to work on endurance without putting excess pressure on my knees. Like this this Bike that they have even allows you to switch your terrain and follow a trail. All the while tracking your progress and your stats.
For busy parents looking to add a workout into their busy days but having difficulty finding the time, they even have babysitting for the kids so that you can get your “Me Time” in.
If you are interested in checking out the Fitness Center this week there is a perfect opportunity.
