I Work Out!

#7. Go to the fitness center. Find out their hours of operation, the cost for students to join, one class you might be interested in taking and the day/time, and how many exercise machines they have. Have someone take a photo of you exercising to post on your blog.

On Monday, September 30, 2013, my friends and I went to Southern Connecticut State University’s fitness center on campus.  We attended a Zumba class from 7:15 until 8:15 at night.  Zumba is an exercise class held in the Student Center which has loud and energetic music to dance for exercise for an hour.  Southern holds Zumba classes on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights on campus for students with a gym membership.  When rushing Alpha Sigma Alpha sorority, one of the rush events was to attend a Zumba class and all the girls worked out together as a bonding experience.  It was a fun time and I really enjoyed it very much, so I joined the gym. It is sixty dollars for one semester or one hundred twenty dollars for the year.

The Southern Connecticut State University gym membership includes free Zumba, yoga, and cycling classes provided for the students anytime by various instructors.  They have many exercise machines including weight lifting and elliptical machines.   The hours of operation are Monday-Thursday 7:00 a.m.-10:00 p.m., Friday 7:00 a.m.-8:00 p.m., Saturday 9:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m., Sunday 2:00 p.m.-7:00 p.m.  Going to the gym has become a routine for me and I like going with friends as well.
