The Halls and the Benefits of Family Membership

While our family membership offers great value for the money, its real value goes beyond that. In fact, our family membership’s greatest value is something money can’t buy. Meet this month’s members of the month, the Hall family - Daron, Jenni, and their two children. Originally joining as a couple, Daron and Jenni, who have [...]

Ed McKechnie Does His Workouts In The Way That Works Best For Him

One of great things about Technogym’s mywellness system, which we use at Pinamonti Wellness Center, is its flexibility. You can go all out and use the tech to the fullest, use only those parts that work best for you, or not even use it at all. For Ed McKechnie the perfect system is having his [...]

For TJ Barnow, There’s Getting In Shape, Plus a Greater Motivation

Back when we were teens and in high school being thin was not something we really had to work at. With metabolisms that functioned, seemingly in overdrive all of the time, we could pretty much eat what we wanted and it wasn’t usually an issue as far as weight and overall heath were concerned (not counting acne, [...]

New Year’s Resolutions

Rarely in the history of mankind has anything had as high a failure rate as New Year’s Resolutions. (Is there anything out there that fails more? Sure, but they’d have to be pushing a 100% rate of failure … say, for instance, financial advisors, spam email, and possibly this season’s Cleveland Browns). So what is [...]

Why do you exercise? Or more importantly, if you don’t, then why DON’T you exercise? When you don’t exercise the reasons are almost always excuses. When you do exercise you are motivated to do so.
