Carpe Diem – Seize the Day.

As the saying goes, you are, today, exactly where you deserve to be.

Are you as lean as you’d like to be?  Or would you like to lose some extra weight or body fat?

Are you performing as well as you’d like to at your given sport?  Or would some intelligent, sport-specific training help take you to the next level?

The bottom line is this:  Too often, we continue to think to the future, while never acting in the present.

Make a commitment to yourself today.  Give us a call to come in, get an assessment, and go through out 14-day free trial.  There’s no commitment if you aren’t 100% satisfied.

To make the deal even sweeter, we’re running a special all summer that can really help you make 2009/2010 your best years ever.  If you sign on for 12 months, we’ll give you an additional 3 months absolutely FREE!  That’s the equivalent of 1 free training session every week.

At IFAST, our only goal is to see you succeed.  Give us a call at 578-0998 or e-mail us at indyfast@gmail.com.

And remember, Carpe Diem – Seize the Day.

How many of you reading this are doing an “old-school” workouts?

When I say old-school, how many of you go into the gym and do the following:

- Hop on the treadmill, elliptical or rowing machine for 5 minutes, then

- Static stretch for another 10 minutes, then

- Follow that up with a body-part specific workout?  You know, back and bi’s, chest and tri’s, etc.?

If that describes your workout regimen, you need an intervention!

Here are IFAST, you’ll go through several specific elements in each and every workout:

1) Soft-Tissue Work – This could be using a foam roller, lacrosse ball or a Tigers Tail. Regardless, the goal is to get you loose and ready for the workout.

2) Dynamic Stretching – Static stretching pre-workout is soooooo 1980!  Instead, dynamic flexibility work will turn on all your stabilizing muscles and get a sweat going for the workout to come.

3) Actue Corrective work – Chances are, certain muscles in your body that should be working aren’t.  In this case, we’ll turn on those underactive muscles immediately before the workout

4) Strength Training – Whether your goal is fat loss, muscle gain or sport-specific training, everyone who comes to IFAST will incorporate strength training into their regimen.  How often, how hard and how long will all be dependent upon your needs and goals.

5) Energy System training – Who wants to spend an hour on a treadmill?  We can do as much for you with one Tabata series as that entire hour can.  And to be specific, a Tabata circuit only takes 4 minutes!  It’s very time efficient.

6) Post-workout stretching – Certain muscles in your body are probably chronically short and/or stiff.  To remedy this, we’ll hit them up one final time at the end of your session.

Quite simply, there’s a lot more to a sound workout program than just cardio, static stretching and a few strength training exercises!

If you want to learn the most effective and efficient way to train, give us a call today at 317.578.0998, or shoot us an e-mail at indyfast@gmail.com.  We can’t wait to work with you!

All the best
