Suns out RUNS out. Spring bottoms you need to WORK

by admin
written by admin

Spring is in the air. I know we still have a few chilly days to get through here and there but all in all we are rounding the corner to the warmer sunshine, SPRING days. That means, GET OUTSIDE AND START MOVING. I know most of us have been forced to get outside more and more to get those chilly runs in… but now, you have no excuse. Suns out, runs out.

To motivate you just a little extra I put together some of my favorite legging & shorts to run in… SPRING edition.

You know I need high waisted always and ones that do not fall down or shift around on you while you are trying to get your FITNESS in. So, these have all passed the test and are recommended by yours truly.

One last thing, I tried to pick the ones I love with the best pricing too… so act fast because these prices don’t always stick around long!

SPRING LEGGINGS PICK: 

SPRING SHORTS PICK: 

 

Happy Running!

XOXO. Kel

The launch of Resistance Fitness is finally here. I know I shared all the details a few weeks back and like I promised I never wanted to make you (my hopeful customer) feel like you were in the dark about ANY of the DETAILS!

SO, asking all the questions and listening to the needs and wants you guys have, here it is. I have laid it out from top to bottom on THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW. And, the best part is if I miss answering any of your questions, I am right here and ready to help! We at Resistance Fitness want to make this a platform that is warm, welcoming and inviting yet still a place where you can kick your own butt and feel your best!

At Resistance we are committed to providing the most value for your money and we want to make everything we offer worth it for you!

Remember all you have to do is… Show up, be your best!

See you on the other side!

 

THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW: 

What is it? 

Resistance Fitness is a virtual fitness platform FOR YOU. We offer LIVE classes and a MEDIA VAULT filled with archive classes that you are able to access ANYTIME! Classes range from Barre, TRAIN (A strength and full body burn class), Yoga and RUN (coming soon). 

How can I access it?

It’s simple… you can access it right on your computer, ipad, laptop, phone… whatever! We have made this completely user-friendly anytime, anyplace. Just visit Resistancefitnesshq.com and let us know what you think! 

When will this GO LIVE so I can sign up?

We will release the website to the world on Thursday Dec. 10th! Thats TODAY! So click click!

With that said classes will not go LIVE on the website until Wednesday Dec. 16th. This will give you a ton of time to explore the website, check out what we have to offer and tell all your friends.  

How much does it cost? 

Great news, the first 7 days is on us. You get to try it out for free. If all goes well (which we hope it does!) it is just $30 a month. This will give you access to all of the live classes as well as the Media Vault. You will be considered a subscriber and we do have special offers for subscribers only (more details below). If you are not ready to be a subscriber we also offer the opportunity to sign up for the LIVE classes for $10. 

What do I get differently for being a subscriber? 

You have full access to all THREE LIVE classes that will be offered every week. That will include two barre classes and one TRAIN class. You will also have unlimited access to the MEDIA VAULT. Anytime, any place. Within that media vault you will have all past live classes that you will be able to access for up to 30 days and you will recieve three new classes in the media vault each week. On top of all of this YOGA will be a offered to SUBSCRIBERS ONLY. 4 yoga classes will be posted each month and will be catered to help you recover from your hard workouts you conquered all week with us.

Be sure to also keep a look out for Resistance Run which will be released early next year (that’s right around the corner). 

How do I pay?

We take payment through credit card on the website through a secured payment taken through STRIPE. 

Do you pay Monthly? Is there a cancelation fee?

Once subscription membership is set up, There’s nothing to worry about. Payments are automatically applied monthly and can be canceled at any time with no charge.

How many times can I watch the workouts in the VAULT and how often do those videos change?

Each live class will be dumped into the VAULT and will land there for up to 30 days. You will have full access to it as a subscriber and can take the classes however many times you choose. You will also have access to 4 new yoga classes a month in the VAULT as well as some specialized classes offered for subscribers only. 

What if I have more questions of concerns or even ideas to share?

Do you even Barre Bro?

by Kelly Berger
written by Kelly Berger

Hey, it’s me. Yup, just KelBel over here trying to convince you that Barre is the secret weapon of workouts and one of my absolute favorites!

I know what you are thinking…

  1. You just don’t do barre.  Its not your thing.
  2. I am not a ballerina.
  3. You arent graceful enough.
  4. I don’t like to dance.
  5. You’ve never done it.
  6. What is it exactly, like what do I do?

Did  I hit them all? Probably not, but I have heard all of’em multiple times. And thats ok. Its ok if you do not know what you are walking into and you arent completely convinced. I just want you to TRY it with me and see what you think.

Here is the breakdown. First thing to note, I teach a much more athletic approach to barre then some may be used to. I have been told that it almost feels like a HIIT workout mixed with Barre. We use small weights and do a TON of reps and pulses. Just enough to get you screaming that you hate me but then LOVE the results. It makes you feel strong, long, lean and like your entire body just got an awesome workout in a short amount of time. Give me 45 minutes!

Here is what you need:

  1. A workout mat
  2. Small weights (2lb, 3lb, 4lb size)
  3. A stretchy band
  4. Something to use for balance and I will even link the weighted barre that I love (but you can always substitute this with a golf club, lacrosse stick, broom, chair, etc.)

My challenge to you. JOIN ME. Just try it once and then you can decide… yup I hate it or nope I actually am into this! But I simply ask that you give it a whirl and see for yourself.

I teach virtually Mondays and Wednesdays @ 12:15 right on IGLIVE and then it lives on my Instagram feed for 24 hours on IGTV. For just $10 you can’t get much better then that.  Its legit, I love it and I think it rocks. Lets get after it together!

XOXO, Kel

All the SPORTS BRAS for All the THINGS

by Kelly Berger
written by Kelly Berger

Like I have said before… you requested and I listened. Let’s talk about  the Sports Bra.

There are always so many questions about what I am wearing when I am working out but one of the most popular question almost every time is… [What is that sports bra and where is it from?].  For all of the many different workouts I do there is always that preferred sports bra for that particular activities. Since we do not do all the same activities I thought I would divide them up for you as  low support, medium support, high support and just plan FUN. Then you can decide which is best for you!

Cold Weather Runs!

by Kelly Berger
written by Kelly Berger

I realize the statement I am about to make most of you will think I am crazy for saying. Honestly when I tell you this, and trust me it has not always been this way but…  I have grown to really like [cold weather running]. So I am convinced that this has something to do with the fact that I played a spring sport most of my life… but that spring sport was sometimes played through some of the coldest days. We had no other choice but to just… deal with it and figure out a way to feel our hands through it all.  So naturally, this is the way I look at my running days that are out in the bitter cold.

What Music Means to Me

by Kelly Berger
written by Kelly Berger

Since music fills my days, I thought I would fill your Friday with some feel good beats.

Typically I am preparing a playlist for a class, yelling at “Alexa” to change to the next song {while I am cleaning my apartment of course} or putting together music to get me through my next long training run.

I love all kinds of music and I really do believe music can change your mood anytime, any place. Often, I get asked a lot if I can share my playlist and so today the answer is YES. Below are two playlist I have put together for you. One is a great mix you can use for running, spinning, working out… whatever you want! The other is more of a chill mix. Great for times when you may just need some feel good background music.

I will say, if you ask me next week to create a playlist it may be entirely different, simply because of how much I listen to music. But for today, these are some of my favorites! Hope you like them.

XOXO.

Kel
