Food Drive – Miracle Food Network

Happy Spring! We will be collecting food for the Miracle Food Network from April 1st through April 18th. This is a great time to clean out your cupboards of non-perishables, or buy an extra bag of groceries and join your fellow BAC members in supporting Whatcom County’s less fortunate. We will have a box for donations located by the front door.

Employee Spotlight: Megan Davis

Hey! My name is Megan and I have been working in Kids Club at BAC for about the last eight months. I am currently a student at Western Washington University and I am pursuing a degree in Environmental Studies with a minor in Elementary Education. When I’m not back in Kids Club, you will finding me walking around Boulevard Park, at the climbing gym, or cooking in my kitchen. My favorite part of working in Kids Club at BAC is providing a safe, positive environment for kids to socialize and play.

Cell Phone Policy

Thank you so much for the positive response to our Cell Phone Policy. In all the years of working here at the club, I have never had so many “Thank You’s” and positive responses to a new policy roll-out. This tells me it was needed. Thanks to all of you who are putting phones away; and remember not to bristle if a fellow member reminds you of the policy.

Parking Lot Protocol

Please park properly, between the lines, not straddling them. There are times when parking spaces are at a premium, be courteous and take only one spot.

Equipment Spotlight – Hammer Strength Iso-Lateral Plate Load

by

Located in our upstairs Fitness Area is our 5-piece plate loaded upper body Hammer Strength Circuit. Shoulder Press, Chest Press, DY Row, Row and Pulldown. What’s unique about these pieces are that they what Hammer Strength calls their “Iso-Lateral” pieces.

What that means is the movement arms are independent of each other forcing you to work both arms equally. Each piece’s movement arms can be used in tandem or one at a time giving you a variety of different workout options.

Each piece is plate loaded so you select the amount of weight you wish to lift and slide the plates on each post of the movement arms. Make sure to load both sides equally.

The seats on all the units are adjustable to fit the size of the user. If you have any questions on any of the Hammer Strength pieces, please ask one of the BAC Personal Training Staff. They would be happy to assist you!
