Upcoming Events - November 2016

All Month: Planksgiving Challenge
We are thankful for the gift of strength and throughout November are celebrating with a Planksgiving Challenge. Take a picture showing off your most creative plank and tag us on Instagram. Each week, the best entries will be announced and win ENRGi Bux (hint hint, new fall & winter apparel coming soon)! For added inspiration, instructors will be incorporating challenging plank variations into their classes.

All Month: Interactive Community Board
This month, our interactive community board theme is "I Am Thankful For...". We all have something to be thankful for, no matter how big or small. Grab some colorful chalk and help us spread the ENRGi!  

November 1-13th: 1,000m World Ski Erg Competition
ENRGi will be participating in the 8th Annual 1,000m SkiErg World Sprints! As long as there's an open SkiErg, challenge yourself as many times as you'd like from November 1st - 13th. Record your time on our white board to be entered into the competition as part of #teamENRGi. If you place, not only will you win a prize from Concept2 but we will also treat you and a friend to massages with our recovery partner, Massage Envy

Member Spotlight, Andrew P. - November 2016

Why we choose Andrew:
Andrew has been a powerhouse since he first walked through our doors 6 years ago! Always one of the first to sign up for a new format and taking the level 3 option, Andrew is fearless in the gym. Thank you for sharing this transformative journey with us!

What motivates you to workout?
The resulting boost in mood and energy afterward, plus a desire to maintain my health.

What are your favorite classes at ENRGi?
Boy, it's hard to narrow it down. Warrior Conditioning has always been a fave; Ropes Gone Wild; Run, Row, Climb; Power Abs. One of the great things about ENRGi has always been the variety of offerings. 

What is your favorite quote?
"The immortal words of Socrates, who said, '... I drank what?' " ;)

How do you recover post workout?
When time allows, Knead to Stretch/Gravity Recover classes or Normatec sessions are great. Otherwise, I have a foam roller and massage stick at home that feel just great on my IT bands . . . NOT!

What is your guilty pleasure?
Based upon the advice of counsel I assert my rights under the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution against self incrimination . . . or, did you mean diet-wise? These days, I have to be pretty strict, but, back in the day, Indian or Arab sweets.
