Lower Body Sculpt and Strength

This class is strategically designed to focus on building glute and lower body strength, as well as overall shape. Most movements will be primarily focused on the lower body and glutes but full body movements will be incorporated to promote overall shape and tone. Intensity will be increased moderately as the weeks pass by in order to achieve overall results. Join us for 6 weeks in order to become a better you this summer!

A gym is more than a place, more than a destination or something to do. It’s a sanctuary, a connection to your community. See our latest video about see how Worx is re-connecting to the Wenatchee Valley community.

Betsy's Quinoa Taco Salad Recipe

This recipe is a quick and delicious way to incorporate quinoa into your diet. It can be served as-is but (if you have the time) it's best served chilled!

  • 1 Avacado, diced
  • 1 Bell pepper, diced
  • 1 Can Black beans, rinsed
  • 1 Bunch Cilantro, chopped
  • 1 Tomato Diced
  • 1 Jar of your favorite salsa (Homemade preferred!)
  • 1 Cup Quinoa (Cook as directed)
  1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl, incorporating salsa to your preference. Chill in the fridge for at least an hour, or overnight. Serve chilled.

1) Foods with higher levels of cholesterol are bad for you.

- Nutrition professionals have had remarkable success with demonizing perfectly healthy foods like eggs. Just think about it… the nutrients in an egg are enough to turn a single fertilized cell into an entire baby chicken. Even so… because eggs contain large amounts of cholesterol, they were believed to cause heart disease. However, studies actually show that the cholesterol in the diet does NOT raise the bad cholesterol in the blood. Eggs raise HDL (the good) cholesterol and are not associated with an increased risk of heart disease.

The kettlebell swing is a perfect example of the uniqueness of kettlebell training. Why? It combines the benefits of resistance training and cardiovascular conditioning in one very powerful exercise. There isn’t an exercise that addresses so many things at once as does the kettlebell swing.

The magicof the kettlebell appears to have something to do with the cannonball shape and the offset handle, which allow you to manipulate the kettlebell much differently than you could with a dumbbell, barbell, or any other training device. The shape and the handle allow you to perform ballistics and grinds. Ballistics are fast, explosive movements, while grinds are slow and deliberate. This allows for a different type of training experience for faster results.

~ 4 T olive oil divided
