Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic Church
Hot Springs Village, Arkansas
Pound workoutSacred Heart of Jesus Parish is blessed to have parishioner, Linda Broome, an experienced fitness trainer, in our lower hall every Tuesday and Thursday from 10:00 - 11:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m., offering an exercise opportunity especially geared for anyone (parishioner or non-parishioner) who is over the age of 50.  The sessions involve stretching to improve flexibility, balance to decrease the chance of falling, light weights to improve strength and muscle tone, and a light cardiovascular component to help lower resting heart rate, blood pressure and cholesterol levels.  In addition, Linda has recently included POUND in the workout time.  It uses music, stability balls in a basket, lightly weighted drumsticks, and a drumming motion to create an effective and fun way of working out.  Every thing mentioned above can be done in a seated or standing position, depending on the person's comfort level.  Come join this group for good exercise, fun and fellowship (before and after the session)!!
