The next 12-week cycle of classes at Fluid Health & Fitness - Spring Session

This week marks the beginning of a new 12-week cycle of strength, mobility, and cardiovascular classes. We have made a few changes to the schedule, so review the updated calendar above. Remember, you can always view the schedule online at https://hubs.ly/Q01J7V_p0.

Looking forward to another productive 12-week session. See you all soon.

Reminders

If you are tracking your "Heart Rate Variability," complete your morning readiness before your classes. (Movement and/or Cardio) We must know your level of CNS fatigue to progress your exercise intensity accurately. Make sure to ask your movement specialist if you have any questions.

Please bring your Bluetooth heart rate straps to cardio classes. If you are participating virtually from home, download Elite HRV (android or apple) and connect your Bluetooth heart rate strap. You will be able to monitor your heart rates from home using this app.

I message from one of our members...

This has been a very weird year for injuries, minor as they were, but certainly disruptive.

THANK YOU for getting me up and skiing for my Colorado "Ski for Light" blind skier guiding trip. My ankle and knee performed just fine...

It's time to sign up and get ready to have some New Year's fun with friends and family, while also supporting a couple of great causes. The first $600 of our proceeds will be dedicated to Sustainable Stillwater MN to help fund their quest to provide the City of Stillwater's elementary schools with Bicycle Safety Instruction, bringing the City closer to an upgrade from bronze to silver certification as a Bicycle Friendly Community. Remaining proceeds will go once again to the State Champion Stillwater MTB Team.

Remember... this is a casual ride with 3 timed Ride with GPS segments for those who can't relax! If it so moves you, ride the Fat Bike Worlds a couple of weeks earlier to get in shape.

The City of Stillwater, and especially River Siren Brewing Company, are looking forward to hosting you. Not only that... the World Snow Sculpting Championship 2023 will be lined up along the course for viewing pleasure.

Join Fluid Health and Fitness, Inc at The Stillwater Fat Bike Rally event will be held on Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th January 2021 in Downtown Stillwater. It will be contactless, and will have a large window of time during its 2 days to self-space and complete the course (more than once if you choose). Participants can either ‘ride’ or ‘race’ the course; with the 3 timed racing segments along the course being the only portions that should be raced! Both fat-bikes and mountain bikes will be allowed, but should the course be soft, fat bikes may be your only rideable choice!

"Movement Autonomy"
The ability to move unrestricted, independent of age related intrinsic declines.

Here is a kind word from a few of our members -

We just finished our third day of skiing at Park City. Feel better than I have in years! Thanks Fluid!

Here is a blog Zak Ketterson wrote about his experience at the Tour de Ski this year as well as a nice pic of him racing. He had a career best sprint result on the World Cup, finishing 17th in the classic sprint in Val De Fiemme! We've been working with Zak this year, and are so proud to see his efforts pay off. Great job Zak and Team Birkie!
