Fitness Challenge in Mississauga - Moms Working Out Together

momstown Mississauga's workouts during our Spring Fitness Challenge have covered quite a variety of interests! Our Mississauga Mamas have tried Zumba at Zumba Passion, Bootcamp from Mommy and Baby Fitness, a Spinning Class, Bootcamp and Stroller Fit from Urban Fitness Canada.

Our mamas started out being weighed and measured by our Personal Trainer Ada from Mommy and Baby Fitness. Ada then had everyone workout with a fit test, and all participants wrote down their own results. Measuring how many burpees, sit ups, push ups, lunges and squats could be done in a set amount of time had the moms huffing and puffing and sweating! We were astounded after the fit test when Ada then proceeded to lead us in a bootcamp!

Working out in a group setting like that where everyone knows each other was a terrific and very supportive yet fun experience. The moms  have met at different events through our  momstown membership, however this was a chance to connect and finish a conversation without kids interrupting (however a few babies did attend).
 
Being a mom is hard work and its great to be able to invest some energy into yourself from time to time. The fun and social events such as our Fitness Challenge are a great way to get our members connected with each other and themselves.

Check back on this blog for our Results Blog from the Fitness Challenge where we will outline how many pounds lost, how many inches have been shed and how many more push ups, burpees and squats we can all do 2 months later!
