How is it almost Friday already?? This week flew by, which is great, but its been crazy busy too! I’m still having Reach the Beach withdrawals, Brian turned the big 3-0 yesterday (!!), and we’re having a big birthday bash at the house this weekend that I am feeling very unprepared for.
Well, I’m prepared but I just wish I had more time to get everything done!!
I also still have lots to share from the rest of my Reach the Beach experience, but first I have an AWESOME giveaway…unfortunately this is for the readers that live near a Boston Sports Club!
Boston Sports Clubs has recently started two new Small Group Training classes: UFX and VBarre!
In addition to the regular classes offered to members of BSC, they also offer these small group training sessions where you pay an fee to take a specialized class for a session (usually 8 weeks). These small group training classes are offered to members AND non-members.
I took these descriptions from the BSC website:
VBarre
Vbarre transcends the typical ballet barre exercise class by blending ballet, Pilates and resistance training into a calorie-burning workout. The result is a lean and sculpted body in minimal time. Choreographed movements using a ballet barre, light weights and a glide board are set to motivating music. (source)
I’d imagine this is their version of the barre classes that have become so popular lately.
The other class is UFX or Ultimate Fitness Experience!
What happens when you combine personal training with team motivation? You get in the best shape of your life with the UXF ultimate fitness experience. This eight session, cross-training workout blends strength training and cardio conditioning to improve your flexibility, agility, strength and endurance. Equipment such as TRX, kettlebells, ropes and bars are mixed with plyometric exercises to create a balanced circuit where you progress at your own pace. UXF is your one-stop shop for a total-body workout. (source)
This class has a lot of what sounds like aspects of Crossfit! If I wasn’t already involved with Crossfit I’d definitely want to take this class!! I bet its a butt kicker!
So now for the details!
I am giving away one package of VBarre sessions and two packages of UFX sessions!!!
Here’s what you need to know:

I love the bootcamp class offered at my gym, but the UFX class sounds amazing! I'd love to try that out at the BSC down the street from me!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great giveaway! I just started taking barre classes and really love it. I'd be interested in the UFX class!
ReplyDeleteI love a bootcamp class offered at my gym on Saturday mornings. The same group of girls go every week so it's fun to feel like you are working out with friends and be able to laugh and have fun! Both classes sound amazing!
ReplyDeleteFavorite fitness class is zumba and kettlebell :) Would be interested in UFX....need to get this baby belly back in shape!
ReplyDeletehow cool! i love a good group power class, but I sort of have the itch to try crossfit... i'd be in for trying either of these!
ReplyDeleteStraightforward, but I absolutely love spinning. I'd love to try VBarre.
ReplyDeleteI love barre classes! I'm in such a fitness rut, and doing these "barre" workouts at home (without a bar) just isn't the same...I've tried! So, I'd obvi love to win the VBarre. My current fav fitness class is smart bells at healthworks.
ReplyDeleteI tweeted too! Great meeting you yesterday :)
ReplyDeleteMy fav is the muscle conditioning class at my work gym! Would love to try UFX though!
ReplyDeleteI would love to try the VBarre class. I am currently addicted to spinning class, so it would be nice to mix it up a little.
ReplyDeleteI love spin classes! I would most want to try UXF!
ReplyDeletei love body pump and yoga! i'd like to try UXF, but the barre may be neat, too!
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway. As a member of BSC I've been considering the barre but they both sound awesome. I'd love to win either!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite fitness class is kickboxing. The energy of the instructor and the other people in the class is motivating. Plus, all those kicks and punches helps relieve a lot of tension. The instructor teaches a UFX class right after one of the kickboxing sessions and it looks intense. I'd love to try that. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI love yoga classes, but desperately need to incorporate some strength training into my life. I'd love to win either class!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is yoga but I like to try other things.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to enter for the UXF
ReplyDeleteLove to try UXF! I just run right now, so I'd love to try a class like that!
