Spring into Your Pace at PARC 

Spring into Your Pace at PARC 

It’s the time of year where we start to shake off the winter hibernation and reset. We love Spring at PARC. The days become warmer and brighter, and we welcome a fresh start with the new season. It’s the perfect opportunity to step out of the slower rhythm of winter and focus on movement.  

In the cooler months, it’s normal to slow down, and sometimes our exercise routines match a more relaxed pace. As we head into Spring, now is a good time to check in with yourself and see where you’re at.  

Reset, Refresh and Reconnect 

If you slowed down this winter or just wanting to move more and not sure where to start, our team is here to support you find Your Pace. This year, we’ve been encouraging our members and community to embrace health and wellbeing on your terms, and we’re here to help you set yourself up for Spring.  

What do you want Your Pace to look like for the next few months?  

Resetting Your Pace doesn’t need to be drastic, it can be small tweaks that support you in moving more.  

Maybe you want to focus on building strength and incorporating a resistance training session into your routine. Or it could be practicing more mindfulness, and joining a Yoga or Body Balance class. It might be looking for lower impact exercises and getting in the pool to do some laps.  

We’re here to support you reboot Your Pace this Spring 

If you’re looking to reboot your routine, get motivated, or simply reconnect with how you want to feel, our dedicated PARC team is here to help you do it.  

Here’s how PARC can support your Spring reset: 

  • Free InBody composition analysis to track your progress. 
  • Over 200 Group Exercise classes each week, with high to low impact classes, strength classes, cycle classes and more.  
  • Dedicated Reformer Pilates Studio with both instructor led and on-demand classes to suit your schedule.  
  • Relaxation and recovery facilities with our Warm Water Pool, Spa, Sauna and Steam Room 
  • PARC Plus online platform to stay connected, anytime, anywhere 

Spring is your season reset, and we’re here to help you move forward at Your Pace. However you choose to move this season, PARC are here for it.

Have you heard of Habit Stacking? 🤔

It`s a great way to add movement into your day by pairing small exercises with habits you already do – helping you be active and achieve 30-20-2, even when life is busy!

You can incorporate simple exercises into your daily task, such as:
– Squats while the kettle boils – turn waiting time into movement time.
– Calf raises while brushing your teeth – two minutes of strength, twice a day.
– Lunges down the hallway – every trip becomes a mini workout.
– Marching on the spot while folding laundry- complete some of your vigorous or moderate exercise every trip.
– Glute squeezes while sitting at your desk – perfect for busy workdays.

Remember, all movement counts 🙌

For more information about 30-20-2, or helpful resources and workouts to get you moving, head to our Digital Hub.
