These classes are fun and adjustable to any fitness level. They feature a barbell and fun upbeat music. Instructors go through training on each routine, so they are fun and energizing. Group power exercise is great for people that need the motivation of a group environment or just want a break from their regular routine.

Once you decide to take the group exercise, there are a few things you need to do. The first is finding a location that offers it. These classes are normally held at gyms, so just call around till you find one. Once you have found the location and time that suits your needs you need to prepare for the class. It is advisable that you dress comfortable, gym clothes or breathable clothing will work best. You will need a good comfortable pair of tennis shoes. You will also want to bring a bottle of water to the gym with you. It is advisable to get to the gym at least five minutes before class starts.

Once you get to the gym introduce yourself to the teacher. Let them know it is your first time taking the class. The instructor will be able to help you select the correct weights and step height. You will not be doing regular step, but you will use the step to help with lounges and chest presses. Warm up is included as part of the class, so you will not have to prepare or stretch before class. During class make sure to use the short breaks between songs to drink water and keep your body hydrated. Your instructor will guide you in the correct movement. Your instructor will also keep an eye on you to ensure you are doing the exercises correctly. If they correct you it is only because they want to ensure your safety and help maximize results. Some of the exercises will hurt but that is only because you are using your muscles in new ways. Although it is important to do your best, do not worry if you occasionally have to march in place to catch your breath. Cool down is also part of the class. At the end of class return the weights and step from where you got it.

When you get done with your group power exercise, there are a few things you should remember. Eat a banana for dinner and breakfast. The potassium will help prevent muscle spasms. Drink plenty of water. Drinking water will help keep your muscles from so sore.

Finally keep going back! The routines do change so you do not have to worry about getting bored. Group exercise is a great addition to your routine and you will begin seeing results quickly. Enjoy a new healthier you thanks to group power exercise!
