What we've been up to...

Here at the U, we've been hard at work. 

We would like to keep you in "the loop" with our current projects & movements. We have been working with The Bronx Re-entry center (federal halfway house for new release offenders). We hold job workshops, where we recruit non-violent offenders those who sign up go through a four week training process. Upon completion, they recieve certification and find job placement within the fitness industry at numerous health clubs throughout the NYC area. We believe that everyone deserves a second chance, and when we are able to aid others with the use of the passion for fitness...we jump at that chance!

This week, we want you to focus on staying motivated. As the months get colder, you may lose the zeal to workout like you were in the warmer months. You may not pursue your business endeavors in the way in which you were in the summer. We want U to remember that the grind Never stops, only U are in control. So go get it!

Til next time!

 Stay positive, stay motivated, STAY U!!

New Additions

Welcome back class, let's jump right in!

Last class we briefly spoke about our new Professor, Tommy Cater. Tommy Cater is a NASM (National Academy of Sports Medicine) and C.E.S. (Corrective Exercise Specialization) certified personal trainer. He is currently a student at the Manhattan Institute for physiology, kinesiology, and nutrition. He is currently a resident trainer at New York Sports Clubs (Union Square), where he is the first trainer in over 2.5 years to go Pro. Professor Cater is great at what he does, but don't let his novelty to the U fool you. He has been known to go by the nickname, Tommy Torture (and is sure to live up to the moniker). Professor Cater is also passionate about volunteer work, which takes us to our next segment...

University Fitness NYC loves to give back, this past Sunday (October 18th, 2015) we volunteered at New Alternatives for LGBT Homeless Youth. We helped distribute clothing and food to the youth, we also simply spent time with them. It was an amazing experience, and we are grateful that we had the opportunity to aid these often understood youth. We are always looking for ways to help advance the  future of America whenever we can. 

 

Here are some pictures from Sunday's event:

Fall Semester is in Session!

Class is in session!

Since last semester,


Hector Guadalupe (Dean of University Fitness NYC), has undergone umbilical hernia surgery. Here's a link on said surgery from the U.S. National Library of Medicine (in case you were interested in learning more about the injury), https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002935.htm
Not to be worried though! It has been 7 weeks since the surgery, and Hector is in great recovery, and his dedication to fitness & wellness has certainly been a huge attribute!

Here are a few things Hector did to keep himself in great shape:

• Stayed within 1500 calories a day
• Low carbs, high protein, lots of veggies
• 2 gallons of water per day
• ZERO supplements
• 90 minutes of exercise per day (6 days a week)

He has recently completed his first month working out post-surgery. The Dean will not need any physical therapy (WOOHOO!!)

Just think, if you could apply even one or two of the above bullet points to your daily lifestyle; you are one step closer to a healthier & more fit U.

We're happy to announce a new addition to the University, Professor Tommy Cater.
Drop by next week for more information on Professor Cater.
