Testing out new gyms and different places to workout can be intimidating no doubt, but with the support of helpful instructors and trainers trying out new gyms can be exactly what everyone needs to reach their workout goals.

Throughout the experience at Crush 24/7, gym-goers develop skills that they will be able to use at every gym they attend. By using all the different kinds of machines through training, no matter what stage of exercise someone is training at, they will be able to find themselves feeling more comfortable using all of the machines and devices on their own.

Including a mix of strength and cardio, Dwayne Carr, the owner and trainer at Crush 24/7, provides boot camp classes every day throughout the morning, afternoon and evening to appeal to all members of the gym to be able to participate.

Carr strongly believes in the use of personal training and getting familiar with the machines provided at the gym.

“My boot camp is a well thought out, science-based workout,” Carr said. “It uses a mixture of type 1, type 2A and type 2B muscle fiber movements.”

Type 1, type 2A and type 2B muscle fiber movements consist of using various, forceful muscle contractions. These different types of muscle fiber movements help improve endurance, power and agility.

Exercising at Crush 24/7 is similar to having your own personal trainer who observes your form as you work out and helps you with what works best with your body. Carr stresses that the key to meeting your goals isn’t always with cardio, but other ways to change your body composition.

The boot camp is personal training, but in a group workout setting. By improving your strength throughout these boot camp exercises, your body will show results and you will end up being more comfortable as your workouts progress.

Performing workouts at Crush 24/7 will help you become more familiar with the machines at every gym you attend in the future and you will become more comfortable throughout your workout to use all of the machinery. As Carr says, this sets up your body for the rest of your life.
