President’s Day Workouts

Area residents were out and about getting their President’s Day workout in Monday.

Exercise Specialist and Certified Wellness Coach Meghan Green says they saw an increase in children and high schoolers utilizing the facility Monday. Green said the extra off day is always nice for people to get that extra work out in. The cold and the snow didn’t keep people away from the rec, but instead, left many people dreaming of summer.

“We had a really nice attendance in our warm water activity pool this morning and a nice group of people taking advantage of those classes and using our 8 lane lap pool as well.”

Green said the extra day off also helps people keep their workout goals.

“It helps you stay on track. It helps you stay committed. You have something. You have a nice routine, something to follow every time you come in and something to look for an measure you’re productivity on the fitness floor.”
