Spring fitness programs
Aerobic dance: a combination of dance movements, running, walking
and calisthenics choreographed to music. Class members can choose
to work at their own pace through either low- or high-impact
variations. This workout is designed to train the cardiovascular
system and improve body composition, as well as strengthen the
upper and lower body and the abdominals. The class will become
progressively harder as the session advances. Location: Front Gym,
Carpenter Sports Building (CSB) (noon); Newark Hall gymnsium (5:10
p.m.)
Aquacize: a great low-impact, cardiovascularly demanding workout.
Class consists of a warm-up and stretch, followed by an aerobic and
isolated body toning segment and finishes with a cooldown stretch.
Exercises can be incorporated into the routines from both the
shallow and deep ends of the pool. Individuals can exercise at the
level where they are most comfortable.. Location: CSB pool
Aquatread: a low-impact cardiovascularly demanding workout
performed in the diving well. Treading varieties and jogging in the
deep water will be the main emphasis of this workout with special
toning segments. Must be confident in deep water. Location: CSB
diving well
Aquarobics: a great class for able swimmers who are tired of the
"old lap swimming." Although some lap swimming is involved, the
monotony is broken up through activities such as treading, kicking,
push-ups, sit-ups and other creative activities designed to keep
the conditioning level high. Participants, however, should be very
comfortable in the water. Location: CSB pool
Walking: tour the streets of Newark, walking at a brisk pace that
challenges your cardiovascular system. Join the F.U.N group (Fit
University Noonwalkers). Location: CSB lobby
Competitive stroke mechanics: taught by a former competitive
collegiate swimmer, this program is offered in a clinic format
where there will be an opportunity to have swim strokes analyzed,
obtain coaching to improve efficiency and have a chance to practice
and improve. All four strokes will be worked upon along with flip
turns and the latest backstroke roll turn. Course participants must
be accomplished swimmers. Location: CSB pool
Variety pass: this is a new program offered to those wishing to
achieve fitness goals through a variety of methods. Participants
may enroll for the variety pass and attend a number of sessions
from the different program offerings (except stroke mechanics) by
bringing a pass to each session and have the instructor note
attendance. This pass will be valid for spring programs only.
