12 Days of Definition Christmas
Are you ready for Definition’s holiday challenge?
Everyone has been enjoying Friday’s Challenge of the week so much that this holiday season Definition trainers are coming together with 12 physical challenges to test you and see how you compare with the rest of the gym!
You will have from December 5th through Christmas to perform all 12 challenges. Each challenge will be randomly selected off of the Definition Christmas board.
The goal for this holiday challenge is challenge you to get in the gym for 12 workouts throughout the holiday season in order to complete all 12 challenges.
All clients are encouraged to participate. Each challenge will be scaled to the ability level of the participant so everyone of every fitness level will be able to participate and have a chance of winning!
Just like Friday challenges these tests will be short, fun, and designed to keep everyone motivated. They won’t be the focus of your entire workout, but rather a fun way to get competitive with your fellow clients!
There will be a $15 buy-in to compete in the challenges for a chance to be the overall winner! Plus, proceeds will go to Toys for Tots. Remember, the challenges are random and could test something other clients may never do, so it’s anyone’s game!
The overall winner will be announced after the New Year and receive the grand prize!!
Have some fun this Holiday season and release some of that Holiday stress with the 12 days of Definition Christmas! Sign up TODAY at the front desk!

Got milk?
There is now a lot of discussion revolving around the different types of milk and the most nutritional choice. Is almond milk really better than cow’s milk?
Compared to cow’s milk, almond milk is the much healthier choice. Almond milk contains a wide variety of the vitamins and minerals that your body needs to function. Almond milk also contains high levels of antioxidants, so it can help prevent many types of cancer and slow the signs of aging. Almond milk is also great for those who can’t drink cow’s milk due to lactose intolerance, or a casein or gluten allergy; however, those with tree nut allergies should avoid almond milk because it could elicit a dangerous allergic reaction.
Whole cow’s milk contains a lot more calories and fat than almond milk, making almond milk the better choice for those on a diet. Cow’s milk also contains saturated fat and cholesterol; almond milk is free of both saturated fat and cholesterol, making it a healthier choice, especially for those with heart problems.
While cow’s milk contains high levels of calcium, and is fortified with vitamins A and D to help you meet your daily requirements of these vitamins, almond milk contains high levels of a wide range of necessary vitamins and therefore has a higher nutritional value than cow’s milk. The only thing that cow’s milk has more of than almond milk is protein; cow’s milk has eight grams of protein per serving while almond milk has only one gram per serving.
NEW Bootcamps!
Starting September 20th, we will be offering bootcamps Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 6pm in addition to our Saturday mornings. Please call ahead to try to reserve a spot- but don’t hesitate to drop and get to work!
