Workout Wednesday

By September 5, 2018 Epic Extras

I am proud to introduce our epic indoor tracks. This amazing feature will be located on the second and third floors and overlooks the sport courts. The third level Adventure Track takes it up a notch and is truly what sets our tracks apart from others. It will include multiple inclines and declines and has various fitness challenges. These include boxes for plyometric (jumping) exercise, tires, hurdles, monkey bars, and many other obstacles to make your workout challenging.

For this Workout Wednesday, here is a workout you can try on our indoor track.

Do you want to develop speed, endurance, and improve overall function and athletic ability? Try this high-intensity sprint and interval workout:
