ATA Fit Camp

On Saturday, August 29th, 2009, we hosted two fitness camps at the Academy. The camp for adults was from 9:00 am until 11:00 am. The kids camp was from 11:00 am until 12:30 pm. At each camp we talked about making better choices with nutrition and exercise.

Both camps started with a warm up, followed by target drills using elbow and knee strikes. Each group also took the ATA Physical Fitness Test, a 5-round maximum rep routine. In round 1 participants do pushups. In round 2, sit ups. Round 3 consists of kicks on the heavy bag. Round 4 is combinations. Round 5 is punches. Each round is 1 minute long with 1 minute rest between rounds. The goal of each participant is to "score" over 300 repetitions through the 5 rounds.

In addition to the ATA Fit Test, the participants in the adult session also completed a Warrior XFit workout to finish out their 2-hour camp. Warrior XFit is an online fitness program that features a different workout each day of the month. Each of the 6 exercises in a daily workout are performed in 20-second, high-intensity bursts, followed by a 10-second recovery. Participants complete (6) 20 seconds bursts of each exercise before moving on to the next exercise.

Everyone had a blast on Saturday. For more information on the ATA Fit Test or the Warrior XFit program, please call us at the Academy at 912-764-3844.

Super Hero Camp

Last Saturday, August 22nd, we hosted our Super Hero Camp at the Academy from 12:15 - 3:00 pm. The goal of the camp was to train like a Super Hero. Each activity worked on a particular skill that various Super Heroes were known for. For example, we had drills that worked on the agility of Spiderman, the strength of the Hulk, and the problem solving skills of Batman! All of the kids had a blast. Here are a few pics:
