Spring into Fitness II; Register for one specific program or sample several
with the Variety Pass!
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.
Each class reflects the individual style of the instructor. 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. This class is designed to become progressively harder
as the session advances. Location: Front Gym, Carpenter Sports
Building (CSB) (noon); Newark Hall gym (5:10 p.m.)
AquaCize: A great, low-mpact, 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 uncomfortable out of their
depth can exercise at the level where they are most comfortable. This
class is designed to become progressively harder as it progresses.
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
AquaCircuit: A great class for able swimmers who are tired of the
"old lap swimming" training sessions. Circuits are developed using
swimming, treading, kicking, pulling, buoyancy and resistive devices,
push-ups, sit-ups and other creative activities designed to keep the
conditioning level high. The class is arranged so that swimmers can
work at their own pace for maximum individual benefits. Participants
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). Walk from Carpenter Sports Building at your
own pace with friends and a fearless leader. Location: CSB Lobby
Variety Pass: This is a new program offered to those wishing to
achieve fitness goals through a variety of methods. You may enroll for
the variety pass and attend a number of sessions from the different
program offerings (except stroke mechanics and cardioSTEP). You will
bring your pass to each session and have the instructor note your
attendance. This pass will be valid for spring programs only.
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 on improving efficiency and have a chance to practice and
improve. This course is ideal for triathletes wishing to get a head
start on their spring training, master swimmers and others who use
swimming as their primary method of fitness but who want to take the
activity a step further. All four strokes will be worked upon along
with flip turns and the backstroke roll turn. Participants must be
accomplished swimmers. Location: CSB pool
CardioStep: Step into shape for summer with this great low-impact
cardiovascular workout set to music. CardioSTEP is easy on the knees
and ankles and can burn calories equal to running a 7-minute mile!
Targeting the gluteals, this workout resculpts the major muscles of
the lower body. Intensive abdominal work finishes the hour. This class
is designed to get more challenging as the session progresses.
Location: CSB mirror room. (Limited to 15 participants)
