Grissom fitness center offers PT help Published Dec. 19, 2016 By Staff Sgt. Dakota Bergl 434th ARW Public Affairs GRISSOM AIR RESERVE BASE, Ind. -- Fitness is important for all military members, however it can be difficult to find the time and motivation to workout but Grissom’s fitness center has a way to help. The fitness center offers a number of exercise classes to help members get in shape, stay in shape or just get to the gym more regularly. Jennifer Hunt, personal trainer, said even though many people come to the classes to prepare for fitness tests they stay because they enjoy the class. “Most people come in for the first time because they are trying to get ready for their PT test,” said Hunt. “After they’ve come to a few classes a lot of people get hooked and love the feeling of being strong.” Deborah Wilson-Strong, 434th Force Support Squadron training technician, said she goes to Hunt’s classes every week because it is a good work out and she enjoys having other people to push her to work out harder and more often. “Jen’s class is very helpful to prepare for your PT test,” said Wilson-Strong. “I always recommend her class to people who are on orders. It’s much easier to get motivated when you have other people to work out with.” For those interested in participating in any of the classes offered by the fitness center the times for each are listed below. -Spin Time with Bruce: 11:00 a.m. Monday, Wednesday, Friday -Jillian Michaels Body Shred: 3:15 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Friday -Conditioning 101: 6:00 a.m. Tuesday, Thursday, Friday -Yoga for Lunch 12:00 p.m. Tuesday The classes are open to anyone who has access to the base including military and civilian employees, retirees and family members.
