About  

The Core Conditioning program runs Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 6 p.m. to 6:45 p.m., and it's a workout that will leave you sweaty, exhilarated and more confident in your own training.  In the Core Conditioning program you will use Kettlebells, resistance bands, and free weights in addition to body weight exercises to help you build muscle, improve your cardio and leave you excited for the next class.  Mat's goal is to show you the skills you need to stay active and fit.  As it is a program that will give what you put into it, Mat will issue homework for an additional workout on the off-days, which you can use at a later time if you are on a vacation or are looking for workouts to do on your own.
