The Benefits of Joining a Health Club

We’ve all heard the news reports: Americans are overweight and in poor health.  Obesity, Diabetes and Heart Disease are rampant.  You know you need to exercise for your health and wellbeing but you have a hard time getting started, or once started, you have a hard time sticking to it.  Need some motivation?  Here it is – Americans are overweight and out of shape and the problem is getting worse!  If you don’t want to be a statistic, Devon Fitness Club is your solution.

You only have one life.  You only have one body and it's got to last a long, long time.  If you want to be healthy and physically active for as long as you live, it’s up to you to take care of yourself (eat right and exercise everyday) to make the most of the body and life you’ve been given.  A healthier, stronger you today will make for a longer, more active and better life in the future.  With regular exercise you will feel better, look better and you will have fewer medical issues/complications down the road.  You will feel more energetic and you will be able to accomplish more during your day.  You will be happier.  You will live longer.

You know the benefits of exercise – now you just have to get started.  Do you do it on your own or do you join Devon Fitness Club?  Here are the benefits of joining Devon Fitness:
• Company of others – not only are you trying to get in shape, but so are a lot of other people!  A Health Club offers you motivation in the form of seeing everyone else exercise too.  Devon Fitness offers you the opportunity to meet others with similar interests and to make new friends who will motivate you to join them in exercising and getting fit.  Frequently the club will host group bike and skydiving trips or fun/charity runs.  Not only can you make new friends, but don’t forget about the unlimited networking possibilities - you could meet a new employer!  No matter what you’re looking for the club provides a friendly group setting in which to work out so that your workouts are less of a chore and more exciting!

• Environment – Devon Fitness is open seven days a week, early mornings, late nights.  It is available rain or shine, whether it’s cold outside or a heat wave.  Inside it’s always comfortable (and you won’t be running on ice, snow or water and/or be run over by a car).  The accessibility to the facility means once you establish a routine you can stick to it – the club will always be ready and waiting for you.

• Atmosphere – the club provides people, music, lights, televisions, juice bar and action!  The atmosphere instills excitement and motivation.  Friendly faces greet you, cheer you on and encourage you to keep coming back to reach your goals.

• Equipment – Only at Devon Fitness do you have access to all the latest and greatest machines and free weights to help you get in shape.  At home you may have a treadmill (you know, that very expensive coat hanger in the other room…) – but do you have elypticals, concept II rowers, bikes, and steppers?  You may have a few dumbbells – but do you have all the circuit machines and a full line of free weights? A wide array of equipment offers you variety and the opportunity to alter your workouts every time you exercise so you don’t plateau or get stale but so that you can achieve your goals!		 • Classes – many people need a schedule to follow to exercise.  Making classes a part of your weekly routine ensures that you will exercise.  Devon Fitness has a wide selection of group exercise classes ranging from step aerobics to kickboxing and yoga or pilates.  There is always something for everyone!  The group setting promotes friendships which helps keep you on track and coming back week after week.

• Trainers – Devon Fitness Club has on-site trainers as an easy resource for questions and as personal trainers.  They are specially trained to help you accomplish your goals!  They write programs for you to follow that are tailor-made for your needs. They provide camaraderie and they motivate you and teach you excises you never knew.  They take you to strength and fitness levels you never anticipated.  One can accomplish so much more with a personal trainer than one can alone.  Strength Training is invaluable if you want to loose fat and tone muscle.  Cardio alone is never as effective as a cardio and strength routine (and a proper diet of course).

• Nutrition – Devon Fitness has a nutritionist on site to go over proper nutrition, menu planning and so much more.  Exercise is only part of getting in shape.  The Juice Bar has all the protein powders and supplements you are looking for.  Did your old place go out of business?  Come see what Devon Fitness has to offer.  What you put into your body is just as important as what you do with your body.   By combining both exercise and nutrition you will feel better immediately!

• Massage & Chiropractic Care - What about relaxation after a hard workout?  Devon Fitness has massage on site to offer relaxation and muscle recovery after a hard workout.  All your hard work deserves a little pampering!  A massage makes the entire experience all that much nicer!  Devon Fitness also has an on-site chiropractor to keep your spine in proper alignment for optimal functioning, balance and health.
