Under the umbrella of the Sports Office I am located in the fitness department.  My job assignment is to bring variety and spice to the fitness life. Unlike sports, fitness is described more like the daily maintenance people provide for their bodies to keep themselves healthy. The Fitness Department steps in and offers a variety of fitness classes throughout the day on land and in the water using certified fitness instructors.  We feature wellness classes as a resource for the at work exerciser because fitness knows the value of the healthy worker. Lunch time walking, yoga, RUover 2?, aerobics, water fitness programs are all offered (and more) as options to help remove the opportunity for excuses.

The Fitness Department knows how easy it is to get bored with the treadmill, so special events that require exercise as its source of training are created like indoor triathlons, or hiking trips over standard treadmill walking. The Fitness Department brings basic nutrition support as well. Teaming up and going to the local restaurant for dining while dieting or learning to be a healthy food shopper with grocery store field trips are all part of our program. In short our mission is to spread the gift of health.
