Functional Training with Tire Flips at W3!

One of our newest functional training “toys” at all of our W3 locations are TIRES! We have a smaller one, about 40 lbs, and a bigger one, about 70 lbs. As you’ll see in the picture below, these two women at the W3 on Monroe St. in Chicago are doing a partner tire flip. Talk about functional training… tire flips involve so many different movements- squatting, lifting, and pushing. It gets your heart rate up but is also a very strength based workout! These two ladies in the picture are newer to our functional training program. One of them signed up for our 8-week Bootcamp that we offered in August and the other is on a 6 month program. They have been doing a phenomenal job! They absolutely love the program and are already seeing RESULTS!!! Strong is beautiful.

Women’s Workout & Wellness, W3, offers functional training at our women’s health clubs all across Chicagoland. We have various programs each month to continue to always strive to help our members see RESULTS, whether it’s weight loss, muscle tone, increase of strength, or overall improvement of health! We know this program works from the amazing success stories we have collected over the past few years since we started the program. YOU should be our next success story! Contact a W3 near you today. You don’t have to be a member to take advantage of these amazing functional training programs! (We also offer POWER BOXING at Downers Grove, Berwyn & the Chicago Loop location & TRX at Tinley Park and Downers Grove!)

Spring into Fitness at W3!

The big “New Year’s rush” is over…but summertime is almost here! So what does that mean? It’s REALLY time to get in shape. Pressure is on for beach/swimsuit season, not to mention the weddings, vacations, graduation parties, summer bbqs and more that await our agendas during the summer. It’s fun, but it’s also nerve-racking if we slacked off a bit during the winter months (especially these winter months in Chicago- it’s May and it’s 50 degrees outside!) So, with the weather (hopefully) attempting to warm up outside, it’s time to get serious and really take some time to focus on ourselves.

Besides the ever-so-popular Zumba, Turbokick, HardBody and CardioFlex classes at Women’s Workout & Wellness, you can also find a variety of bootcamps, challenges and functional training programs going on that are changing the lives of women across Chicago- helping them lose weight, tone up, increase their strength and cardiovascular levels, feel better and more energized, and just overall GET IN SHAPE! Before we talk a little bit about what these programs consist of, I just wanted to share a few comments we have heard from some members across our W3 locations. One 4-Week Summer Shape Up Challenge member from the Downers Grove W3 said she can’t even begin to explain how these workouts make her feel- not just physically but emotionally and mentally as well. She decided the 4 weeks wasn’t enough for her and enrolled in this program for a minimum of 3 months! Good for her!

Another member from the W3 on Monroe St. in the Loop had to put another hole in her belt… not to make it looser, of course, but to make it tighter! Her belt has now become too big. She thanked her trainer for the great workouts so far. Yes, it’s the trainer’s motivating training style and amazing workouts, but she has put in a lot of work and has amazing fat loss results to show for it. Can’t wait to see her before and after picture side to side! Only a few weeks left of her bootcamp. Unbelievable RESULTS coming soon!

Intrigued yet?

We could write blog post after blog post of amazing success stories followed by pictures to show the results these women have received, and we will continue to do so because we know this program is what will help women across Chicago get fit and HEALTHY. What’s so great about it? It’s the functional training style of classes. Women join our group functional training program for various reasons: to lose weight, reduce fat and inches, gain muscle tone, feel better, get rid of pain, gain energy, sleep better, and more! And they are getting what they asked for. We use our functional “toys” and carefully designed workouts to produce amazing results. Some of our toys include ropes, slam balls, kettle bells, Bosus, TRX suspension training, plyo boxes, val slides, bands, superbands, monster tires, and more. Have you seen the Biggest Loser? Then you know exactly what we are talking about.

Check out our video HERE to understand  a little bit more about functional training. Come check it out for yourself- whether you are a member of Women’s Workout & Wellness or someone looking for a gym/program to join, we have a challenge, bootcamp or program for you! Non-members are welcome to enroll in a program for 4 weeks or more, depending on our current promotion. Call today- you’ll be amazed.

New Exciting Weight Loss Programs at Women’s Workout & Wellness!

Happy New Year Everyone!

2012 was a great year, but we are so ready to bring new programs and challenges to our members to really help them get RESULTS in 2013!!! It’s our year to help you, and it’s your year to get the body and optimal health you’ve always wanted! We have the programs to help get you there- all at Extremely affordable prices and all at a place where women feel comfortable to workout and be themselves!

So, about these programs… we have completely revamped the way our personal training has been running, more importantly, our group personal training. We know so many members have lost weight, lost body fat, increased their strength and muscle tone, increased metabolism, improved their energy and just have felt amazing by doing our group training programs. But now, we want to make sure every member has the chance to be able to feel this way and experience the best program around!

I’ll give you a few details of the program… First of all, our core philosophy for our training programs at W3 is that everyone trains functionally. Our workouts are built off of this philosophy because we KNOW it works. We know it gives the best results and helps you lose weight and get fit.. but we also know that it’s important for living your everyday life with ease. You train your body to be able to perform activities without any pain and with the strength you need to complete everyday tasks. But like I said, that’s not all it does. It also helps you achieve your goals in the most efficient way possible!

We will continue to make this program amazing. Just a few things we have implemented are 30-day experiences for our members- we want to break down any barriers or questions you may have about this amazing program, and offer a 30 day trial to you for just $19, so you can try it- risk free- and start seeing results! We know once you start seeing results, you’ll know how amazing and valuable this program really is! We have implemented a new system with our W3 personal coaches. We call it the coach’s card. It’s basically to help our coaches get to know all of our clients better and make sure they are aware of any injuries, pains, or maybe just to be aware that HEY- this member needs to go heavier on her next workout! (it’s all to get her the results she is working toward!) We have a new scheduling system, nutritional seminars, exercise tip videos, and a new way for our coaches to deliver these workouts to you- our workout of the day! These are scientifically designed by our top, most educated and experienced trainers to burn fat and increase metabolism. And we are getting all- new functional equipment, or toys as we like to call them, at our Kedzie location. All the clubs will be ready to go!

That’s just a brief overview of our new program… there’s no reason YOU shouldn’t try it! Truthfully, health is a lifelong commitment. You only have one body and one chance to take care of it. We want all of our members to commit to this program because we know it’s the BEST, but we also know that it can be scary to try something new, so we are giving you 30 days to try it. You HAVE to take advantage- I know you’ll be amazed at what you can accomplish in just 30 days!

And hey- it helps a little bit that we have our New Year’s resolutions to start kicking in to gear… what could be a better way than to try the best program that will help you reach your goals ???

Warning: once you start seeing results, you won’t want to stop 😉
