IMPORTANT CHANGES AND WEEKLY CLUB NEWS!!

Hellooooo Snap Avon!

It's a BEAUTIFUL Tuesday outside and I hope you are enjoying every minute of it! I sure am! I spent hours this afternoon distributing flyers around town about our fantastic FREE Silver Sneakers program we have going on at the club...so I got to enjoy a bit of sun myself. HOWEVER...we ALL still need the strength training so I hope to see you power up some weight this week in the gym :)

Now for this week's updates:

1. ***CHANGE IN WEDNESDAY'S YOGA CLASS TIME*** Yoga with Katey has been moved to 5pm on Wednesdays effective IMMEDIATELY. So again, tomorrow's yoga class will now be BEFORE bootcamp at 5pm. Hope to see you there!

2. The water fountain was fixed this weekend by our very own MacGyver and club trainer, Katey! I'm beginning to think Katey can do anything. She even figured out how to unlock the men's bathroom door yesterday that somehow got locked from the inside out (really guys? what are you doing in there? LOL).

3. As much as I love the quiet mornings at the club when I train myself, I would like to promote use of the club in the early mornings. We have showers and plenty of cardio equipment just waiting for YOU. Best part -- workout is DONE and OVER WITH early so you can just carry on with the day. SOOOOO - anyone that comes in from 6am to 10am a minimum of 10 times per month will get 10% off their dues in the following month!

4. The Meat House Menu launches on May 10th (copy of menu attached)!!! Sorry to Snap Head Trainer Brian for calling the Meat House and ordering the "Back Day Burger Wrap" yesterday only for the person on the phone to say "Um. Do you know you called The Meat House?" LOL! Matt and Rich at The Meat House just need a little time to get all the employees on board so thank you for your patience.

5. Thank you to the person that left me feedback looking for more male dominated magazines. I left a Car and Driver magazine along with some Travel, and Travel & Leisure magazines for you. Your feedback is always welcome.

6. The latest issue of Natural Nutmeg hit the newsstands today with my recipe article for "chicken tacos with romaine shells!" Copies are at the club. Attached is a photo collage Jessica made :)

7. Lastly - check out the incredible 8 week transformation by our club member Mike Russo -- 58 years young and NO CHANGE to his workouts...ONLY nutrition (photo attached). I can't stress how important nutrition is - how nutrition IS the MAGIC in all this - and how it doesn't have to be difficult. I'm happy to meet with every one of you to get you started on your own life change.

All for this week --- hope you are ROCKING your week and I look forward to seeing you at the club!!

....and remember- I'm always listening.

Introducing Jesse's Journey!

Jesse Is On His Way!!

Snap Fitness Avon is excited to announce that Jesse Pellegatto has decided to start a fitness journey with the help of our club! Jesse has already candidly started blogging about his experience on his new Facebook page entitled “Jesse’s Journey,” which can be found by clicking this link: www.facebook.com/jessesjourney2013 . Jesse is not a big fan of working out, so any and all cheers and messages of encouragement will be greatly appreciated by him as he works hard in the club to make fitness part of his lifestyle. Below is Jesse's first post this week which helps you get to know Jesse a little bit and better understand where he is coming from:

“Hi there, I'm Jesse. I have almost always been a bigger guy. 6'4" and 265lbs is about where I have been for the last few years. I pretty much hate to exercise and like my beer and a good meal. Funny thing is, my wife is a Professional Figure Competitor and has been in the health and nutrition game for over 10 years. They do say opposites attract LOL. As she competes and goes through her inevitable show prep and a more strict diet, I follow along and start eating healthier. I lose a little bit of weight going into a show as well. But once the show was over for me, I always "binge". I am sure anyone who has struggled with staying fit can understand that one. You go along the week, eating well and BAM a surprise party comes for your good friend on a Wednesday. You say, well, it's a party, I'll have a drink or 2 and maybe some cake. Then the next day comes and you think, well, I already blew my diet for the week and hey, it's Thursday, why don't I grab dinner out, oooh, the desert looks great too. Before I know it I am eating big meals, drinks and deserts daily and packing on the pounds. Well, the Yo Yo dieting has got to end. It effects my mental state, obviously my physical state and is basically just a nuisance to live that way. I am sick of feeling like I am at the mercy of my cravings and would like to be on a more even keel. Well, what do you know, my wife just took over SNAP Fitness in Avon CT, so now I have 0 excuses right! That's it, I am going to put my best foot forward and dedicate my energy to a healthier and more muscular self. Follow me on my journey as I Train, Eat (and Complain) my way to a better me!”

As you can see Jesse has committed to making a lifestyle change, and will be working hard in the coming months to improve his health and fitness. To do so, he will be utilizing both the the 5am-12am access to the club and the personal training staff at Snap Fitness for his workouts. So far Jesse completed his fitness assessment with head trainer Brian Szmigiel and attended 3 personal training sessions this week with Brian, Tynan Santana, and Katey Hurley. You can view pictures and his thoughts on his first full week on his Facebook page. Also on his to-do list is a healthy and nutritious diet that will focus on whole foods, consistency, and plenty of variety. Jesse will be getting help on meal choices by utilizing the Snap Fitness “Michele Approved” menus at La Trattoria (dinner), The Village Cafe and Bistro (breakfast), Deepwater Seafood (lunch), and coming next week at The Meat House Avon (lunch). Jesse will also be using Isagenix, an all-natural organic solution to overall wellness that addresses nutritional deficiencies and is also backed by SCIENCE. We are all proud of Jesse for giving Snap Fitness the opportunity to use all of our tools to help him reach is fitness goals. Stay tuned to both Jesse's Journey on Facebook and how about giving us a "LIKE" on Facebook at www.facebook.com/snapfitnessavonct as well.

GO JESSE GO!

The New (Ab)Normal

The portion size now is more than FOUR TIMES what it was in the 50's... and while that has grown... so has our population... and I'm not talking about demographics so much as the numbers on the scale and inches around the middle. Time for a change. Stop by the club to chat about a nutrition plan that will work for YOU. After all, if you eat like everyone else, you will most certainly end up looking like everyone else.
