Class #80 Y.E.S. Circuit Friday 10:00 a.m. (Kat for Kathy)
This morning's Young Energetic Seniors Circuit class came directly on the heels of a strenuous Spinning session. I joined my Y.E.S. friends a little on the tired side, but ready for a fun round of circuit training under the tutelage of Kat Hebert who was substituting for Kathy Mahoney. Kathy is always a hard act to replace, but Kat has a great connection with the Y.E.S. group and she did a splendid job leading this morning's session. Class had just begun as I joined the group. Our Circuit Training room has 12-piece Strive weight machine circuit, three Schwinn Airdyne stationary bikes, one rowing machine, an abdominal bench, and a balance board. The format of this class is simple: each participant rotates around the entire circuit performing weight machine repetitions or cardio work at each station. We transition with the red light / green light signal and we spend two minutes at each station. After completing the entire circuit, you have worked the entire body and elevated your exercising heart rate for the better part of 40 minutes. This is an efficient, fun, and complete workout. Space is limited due to the number of stations in our Circuit Training room but our instructors are able to add an extra station or two if needed.  Kat's music playlist was outstanding this morning! It was truly a stroll down my childhood memory lane. Great songs from the 1960s included "In the Midnight Hour" (Wilson Pickett), "Wild Thing" (The Trogs), "Bend Me, Shape Me" (The American Breed), "Oh La Di, Oh La Da" (The Beatles), and "Just My Imagination" (The Temptations).
As always, our Y.E.S. group of members had a wonderful time. There's a beautiful social element to this group and they've made feel welcome in all the Y.E.S. classes I've attended. I enjoy my time with them and there's never a dull moment. Thanks Kat! This morning's gift card winner is Carmen Shea. Participation Honor Roll: Carmen Shea (gift card winner)
