Functional Training: A Focus on Everyday Activities
Most of us believe that by performing the typical resistance and flexibility exercises to our fitness regimen are all we need to help keep our muscles and bones strong and to reduce the risk of injuries. This workshop will help explain the origin of functional movements, identify differences between "Traditional" and "Functional" exercises, and how to integrate the two.

go — Get Outside!
As part of the go campaign, HMSA is encouraging us to "get up, get out, and get active!" In keeping with that theme, this session focuses on Hawaii's ideal environment for outdoor fitness. Join us to discuss swimming, hiking, and biking, and all the fun to be had with these activities. Find out where to go, who to go with, and how to go best-prepared.

The Magic Bullet
Many of us would like to enhance our level of fitness, but either can't find the time for exercise or don't know where to begin (or both.) Join us to discover all the ways that exercise can be of benefit to us, and learn safe, simple steps to get on a routine. We'll cover equipment that you may want to purchase for home-based workouts…we'll discuss proper footwear… and we will also practice monitoring our heart rate as a means of gauging workout intensity.

Mind your Muscles
Are you a physically active person who would like to further improve your fitness? In this session, we focus on the conditioning of our muscles. We start by reviewing basic muscle anatomy, and then we discuss ways to get stronger and more flexible. Attendees will receive a free resistance band, and we will perform strength training exercises along with some stretches. Group size is limited to no more than 20.
