Like building model airplanes, building lean muscle can be difficult without guidance, gravity, and balsa wood. Construct your own body to model with today's Groupon: for $49, you get a wellness package from IThinkFit Gym (a $400 total value). The package includes:
- Four weeks of fit camp (a $225 value)
- A consultation (a $75 value)
- A nutrition plan (a $75 value)
- InBody 230 body-fat analysis (a $25 value)
Inside IThinkFit's 11,000-square-foot facility, certified personal trainers, Sean Harley and Heath Michael Murray, help clients to lose weight and build lean muscle through a training-and-nutrition package. Four weeks of unlimited fit camp—which has a camper-to-trainer ratio of 8:1—allows clients to swap out an old fitness routine of bench-pressing the neighbor's overweight cat or Garfield collection for one that mixes free weights and kettlebells with Pilates, plyometrics, and cardio. Classes are held seven days a week and change each day so the body doesn't adapt to one mundane activity and incur the drawbacks of plateauing.
A consultation takes stock of the client's fitness goals and lifestyle, which helps trainers to create a custom nutrition plan for each individual. To further understand their bodies, clients undergo the InBody 230 body-fat analysis, which evaluates body composition including lean body mass, percent body fat, total body water, and amount of rice swallowed at your last wedding. The staff prints out results on a user-friendly sheet that can be displayed proudly above the mantel.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Keeping Your Resolution
Your New Year's resolution likely falls into one of the following four categories: health, fitness, beast taming, or relationships. No matter what your resolution is, stick to it like a bee trapped in its own honey with these resolution-keeping tips:
Imagine Success: There's no room for failure! Even imagining defeat will cause your digestive organs to acclimate to the dewy, rancid taste of failure.
Imagine Failure: Just to see how bad it feels.
Start Slow: It's not reasonable to quit smoking cold turkey, stop not-exercising cold turkey, or give up eating all that cold turkey from Thanksgiving cold turkey. The first step toward fulfilling your resolution is to dream about it consecutively for seven nights.
Never, Ever Stop: Quitting is easy, but lasting success comes from perseverance.
Wait Till Next Year: By 2013, they'll probably have invented a pill that solves your problems for you.
