STRENGTH

The strength and movement training program combines continuous resistance and movement exercises designed to improve muscle tone and overall fitness level as well as increase metabolism.  

No matter what your fitness goal, a solid fitness foundation starts with building strength.  Strength training will add the muscle that you lose to the aging process each year and improve bone density.

The movement or conditioning exercises will also increase your metabolism and increase your fitness level.  Increasing your fitness level will provide you the ability to recover fast and work out more efficiently.

Here are examples of key exercises included in this 1st phase of the program:

CARDIOVASCULAR

In addition to your 3 weekly one on one sessions, we will set appointments for you to come in for supervised 30 minute cardio sessions.  A trainer will set up the cardiovascular equipment so that you remain in the fat burning zone during your training session.  If your goal is to lose weight, your cardiovascular training should be performed in the fat burning zone.  The fat burning zone is between 60 and 80 percent of your maximum heart rate.

Oasis has spin bikes, treadmills, elliptical machines, exercise bikes and stairmasters for you to use during your fat burning cardiovascular sessions.  We will also take you on power walks to burn the fat.  In order to get the most out of each cardio session, we will alternate which type of fat burning cardiovascular training you do.  Your cardiovascular sessions will continue throughout the course of the 90 program.

As well, we will meet at different locations around the valley on Saturday mornings to hike, bike or train.  Our meeting locations will include various mountain preserves like North Mountain, Shaw Butte, and Dreamy Draw.

After a successful month of strength and movement exercises, we will move you along to the 2nd month of the 90 day program which focuses on strengthening the core of the body. 

CORE

Training your core will strengthen your body from the inside-out.  The core area of the body is involved in most movements in everyday life.  Incorporating core stabilization exercises into your program challenges the abdominal and back muscles to keep the spine in the appropriate position during daily activities. A strong core improves balance, stability and posture.

Here are examples of key exercises included in this 2^nd phase of the program:

HOW you eat is just as important as WHAT you eat.  At OASIS we will train you how to eat, as well as how to workout with weights.  The most important meal of the day is a BREAKFAST fit for a KING because you have all day to use these calories.  The word BREAKFAST means to BREAK the FAST – if you have been giving your body food every 2 to 2 ½ hours throughout the day, the 6-10 hours that you do not eat over night is considered a fast in the eyes of your metabolism. Next you will need a snack that will bridge the gap between BREAKFAST and LUNCH. 

The SNACK is a necessary part of daily nutrition because it keeps the fire of the metabolism burning. 

The LUNCH of a QUEEN is the second largest meal of the day because you still have half of the day left to burn these calories.

The SNACK is skipped very often although it is the most important snack of the day.  Your late afternoon snack is designed to SPOIL DINNER and keep your metabolism burning.

The spoiler snack is set up for a POOR MAN’S DINNER or SMART DINNER.  This meal should be eaten by 6:30 p.m. and should be the smallest meal of the day because it is the last meal before SLEEP.
