Momentum Fitness: Well Rounded Fitness for the General Population By Kelly Fordyce Martindale
I
participated in the Barre Tone and Sculpt exercise class at Frederick’s Momentum Fitness. I’m sixty and it’s been eight years since I’ve worked out in an organized environment. I was the oldest in the class led by Courtney, one of six in-house trainers. The exercises were familiar but difficult for me, however, Courtney was very good at showing/explaining how to adjust the moves to fit my abilities without holding up the rest of the group. The routine in Barre Tone and Sculpt worked out my whole body using one hand weight, a stretch strap, and a ball. I was sore for a couple of days, but it was “a good” sore. The camaraderie between the participants and trainers was impressive. The staff care about the individuals in the gym and I can envision friendships growing within those walls. The gym is large, open and clean. There is a wide array of large equipment and accessories like balls, stretch straps, boxes, hand weights, and much more. Justin Ritter, owner, says, “We have all ages and abilities
of people who join our gym. From extremely fit to those (like me) who are new to fitness or getting back into it after an injury. Sometimes life just gets in the way.” He went on to share that moms and dads find gym time a nice reprieve from work or kids at home. “This is their self-care,” he says. “We have classes for kids too,” explains Justin. “It’s important to show kids that fitness is fun. Today’s youth needs to move… especially now with online classes and home schooling. Kids can come here for their Phys Ed credit and have a great time.” Clients can come in for one-on-one personal training or participate in structured classes. The two basic classes scheduled are Barre Tone and Sculpt or Lift and Sweat. Depending on
weather, classes are inside and outside. Lift and Sweat is a well-rounded routine utilizing weights and running. It increases strength and endurance. Lift and Sweat offers short, intense routines that give high power output. Many clients participate in both classes for the variety of exercises. Most classes run about one hour long. Justin says, “We have a program to evaluate each individual’s abilities. With the first one-on-one meeting, we go through fifteen categories to determine fitness level. From there, the client follows a color-coded workout plan which can be more customized to best fit each person’s fitness needs.” As Justin was sharing that he enjoys fishing and hunting, he jokingly added that most of his hunting trips turn into long, hard hiking journeys. “That’s why,” he says, “This time of year we might modify the workouts and carry sixty-pound packs on our backs and run steps for longer periods. All of this builds endurance for climbing mountain trails and carrying back an elk.” Momentum Fitness offers a full body scan on their 3D Body Scanner (left). It is an infra-red scanner that builds a 3D image of the body, including weight, measurements and body fat, from
head-to-toe. This body scan allows clients to super impose the older, original scan over the new current scan which shows actual progress!
