WashU Rec is offering extra incentive for participating in BearFit Training programs this fall.
Each time you participate in personal or group training session between September 28 and November 23, your BearFit trainer will give you a sticker to place on the leaderboard. The three participants with the most stickers will receive a special prize and everyone who participates will receive a BearFit tank top.
If you have ever considered personal training or joining a small group training class, now is a great time to set up a consultation and get started on your fitness journey.
Our goal is to develop a sense of confidence in the gym by teaching a basic understanding about different exercises that can be incorporated into an everyday workout. Each class is conducted by a certified BearFit trainer who will provide both group and individualized attention as needed.
See the schedule and register for classes on the online rec store.
Each class will have a different focus for the hour during which you will have the opportunity for hands-on experience performing the skill and learning how to utilize it within your own workout. You will work with one of our certified BearFit trainers in order to receive expert instruction and guidance and answer any questions you may have.
See the schedule and register for classes on the online rec store.
During the consultation, your BearFit trainer will take your body measurements and discuss your health and fitness history. You’ll also talk about what fitness goals you have and what activities interest you to determine what WashU Rec programs could be the right fit for you.
