Around the Hook Today – July 2010<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Yes, it\u2019s hot but that\u2019s no reason to stop exercising.\u00a0 In fact, working out in EPH&F\u2019s air conditioned spaces is a cooler and safer way to exercise during these hazy, humid days of summer.\u00a0 And, now EPH&F has added new classes and additional times to keep workouts fun and varied.\u00a0 \u201cWe are continually exploring and implementing new classes, new workshops and new fitness methodologies to help members have fun while reaching their fitness goals,\u201d said EPH&F Owner\/Manager, Paul Mazzella.\u00a0 \u201cWe also listen to our member\u2019s suggestions and as a result have expanded our class schedule.\u201d<\/p>\n

New Group Fitness Classes<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cBecause of the success of the Zumba Workshops, we have now added Zumba and Zumba Gold classes to our regular group fitness schedule,\u201d said Mazzella.\u00a0 On Monday evenings and Wednesday mornings, join in this dynamic dance fitness program that uses hypnotic Latin rhythms and easy-to\u2013follow moves to create a one-of-a-kind fitness program that can really produce results.\u00a0 Zumba Gold is for beginners, active older adults\u00a0 and less conditioned participants.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have also added a Wednesday evening Kickboxing class and an earlier Pilates class,\u201d said Mazzella.\u00a0 \u201cWe now offer Yoga eight times a week and Spin eight times a week and don\u2019t forget about our ongoing workshops.\u00a0 This summer\u2019s sessions include Sunrise Yoga on the beach and Boot Camp.\u00a0 With the addition of the new classes, EPH&F now offers 38 group fitness classes a week!<\/p>\n

Sunrise Yoga<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cEnjoy the natural beauty of our area in the early morning with our Sunrise Yoga,\u201d said Mazzella.\u00a0 \u201cWeather permitting classes will be held Saturday mornings from 7:00 – 8:00 am on the beach in Seabright.\u00a0 It\u2019s a great way to start the day.\u00a0 You can pay the drop in fee and attend any class that works with your schedule.\u201d<\/p>\n

Boot Camp<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cOriginally named \u201cBoot Camp\u201d because it resembled the physical training of a soldier, this type of workout is an efficient way to exercise your entire body by going from one exercise to another with no rest. It involves calisthenics at a high intensity,\u201d said Mazzella.\u00a0 \u201cIn boot camp, your challenge is to take your body to its limit. You work hard and you burn calories like crazy!\u201d\u00a0 Boot Camp is held every other Sunday morning from 8:45am \u2013 10:00am and the drop in fee applies here as well.<\/p>\n

Welcome New Trainers<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very pleased and excited to welcome two new personal trainers to the EPH&F family,\u201d said Mazzella.\u00a0 \u201cHank Dean and Brian Bott have come on board and are ready to help members reach their fitness goals.\u00a0 The addition of these two experienced professionals brings our training department up to 9 personal trainers, which allows us to accommodate even the busiest client\u2019s schedule.\u00a0 It also allows us to draw upon a wide variety of training styles, expertise and personalities to get the best match for our clients.\u201d<\/p>\n

Group Training<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cGroup training is the most cost effective way to receive the benefits of a personal trainer here at EPH&F,\u201d said Mazzella. \u201cYou can save up to 50% depending on how many people you train with.\u00a0 You get the incredible benefits of working with a personal trainer as well as the camaraderie and support of a training partner. You can choose a friend, spouse or other family member as your training partner or we can find another member that is a good match for you based on your age, fitness level and experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

Real Results Fall Session<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIf you want to start an exercise program,get in better shape or lose weight and be successful then sign up for our Fall Real Results Program coming September 26th,\u201d said EPH&F Nutritionist and Program Administrator, Kim Garrity.\u00a0 \u201cThis is our 12th Real Results program and in each session we\u2019ve seen participants not only achieve their goals but change their lives.\u201d\u00a0 Real Results is an eight week program that focuses not only on weight loss but on improving overall health through balanced nutrition and exercise. Participants receive individualized workouts and nutrition plans designed to fit their needs and ensure they stay on track as well as group workouts with EPH&F trainers, group meetings, seminars, weekly check-ins, workout logging as well as an online food tracking system. \u201cAs a result of this approach, participants see a reduction not only in weight but other health indicators such as body measurements and body fat,\u201d said Garrity.<\/p>\n

2nd Annual \u201cEastpointe Raising Hope\u201d Event<\/strong><\/p>\n

Businesses at the Eastpointe Shopping Center in Atlantic Highlands came together for the charity event \u201cEastpointe Raising Hope\u201d to raise money to improve the lives of children facing challenging circumstances. This fun-filled family oriented event\u00a0 held in the Eastpointe Shopping Center parking lot included DJ entertainment, a giant inflatable slide, dunk tank and other rides, games, and attractions, in addition to raffles, silent auctions, and giveaways.\u00a0 Raffles included tickets for four lucky winners to the Bon Jovi and Kid Rock concert on July 9th at the new Meadowlands Stadium. The tickets were only $5 each and 100% of the proceeds went to charity.\u00a0 In addition, Eastpointe Health & Fitness held a pre-event Spin-a-thon and gave chair massages with the proceeds going to charity.<\/p>\n

Hope for Children Foundation NJ was founded by a group of young entrepreneurs who wanted to make a difference in the lives of children enduring challenging circumstances. To date HFCF has donated over three quarters of a million dollars to local charities and families in need of assistance in Monmouth County. Now more than ever the foundation needs the support of local businesses and individuals as budgets are being cut while the needs of the children keep growing.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s our way of giving back to the community,\u201d said Mazzella. \u201c It especially feels good to be helping children and making their lives better.\u201d\u00a0 Peter Ruvolo of Ruvolo\u2019s Pizza and Restaurant\u00a0 has been instrumental in liaising with the charity and Eastpointe businesses to put the event together. \u201cIt\u2019s great that more and more businesses are pulling together to make a difference through a wonderful charity,\u201d says Ruvolo.\u00a0 Proceeds from rides, games, and attractions, as well as raffles and silent auctions benefited the Hope for Children Foundation NJ.

Ryans Run<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cEPH&F was also a proud sponsor of Ryan\u2019s Run, which took place the day before the Eastpointe Charity Event,\u201d said Mazzella. \u201cRyan\u2019s Run is a wonderful annual event and this year saw a record number of attendees and managed to raise close to $50,000.\u201d\u00a0 The proceeds from the run go to the Ryan Andrew Kaiser Memorial Foundation ( RAKMF) who\u2019s mission is to support families of seriously ill children, construct memorial playgroups and playrooms and the raise money for hospitals and doctors\u2019 groups that specialize in the cure and care of pediatric heart patients.<\/p>\n
