Group Exercise Updates

Our Fall Schedule started on Monday September 29th! A couple highlights: Thursday night HIIT with Kristle is returning at 5:30pm. She will give you a great workout that is always fresh and fun!

We’d like to welcome a new Yoga instructor named Anastasiya! She will take over the Monday 10:30 Gentle Yoga while Debi is gone for a while. Then we added a brand new Yoga class on Tuesdays at 9am. This will be a 75 minute class (like Thursdays) with Anastasiya as well. Keep an eye out for her Bio…she will be a great complement to our other amazing Yoga instructors!

Fall is a great time to get back into a routine, and group fitness is great for making the most of your time, accountability, and making some great connections! Happy Fall!

Employee Spotlight: Megan Jorgensen

Hi, I’m Megan, and I’ve been serving as the Kids Club Supervisor here at BAC for the past five months. Outside of work, I’m heading into my senior year at Western Washington University, where I’m majoring in psychology and hoping to pursue a graduate degree in family counseling!

When I’m not on campus or at the gym, I love spending time by the water or catching up with friends, usually hunting at local thrift stores.

What I’ve appreciated most about working at BAC is how welcoming and supportive both the staff and members have been. I’ve built connections here that I truly didn’t expect, and I’m grateful to be part of such a positive community.

Equipment Spotlight – Hammer Strength Iso-Lateral Plate Load

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!
