Core Direction has launched its Core X-Fit training program specific to the athletic male who’s looking to push through previous boundaries and boarders, experience a completely new level of fitness, increasing muscle endurance, strength and size, leaving them itching for a taste of what’s to come. This 4-week ( 12 sessions in total) extreme program will push you to your absolute boundaries regardless of your fitness level! For those of you brave enough to take up the challenge, a short overview of what’s to be expected throughout the month is detailed below :

· The 1st 5-7 minutes of each session is dedicated to a 1 mile run at your quickest pace.
o In session (1) you’ll be asked to complete your run in under 7 minutes but by session (12) we’ll be asking for 5min30.
· 6km worth of shuttle runs forwards and backwards

With a 7:30 PM start to the sessions and classes being limited to a maximum of 12 males, we make sure to reward our committed males who attend all sessions, with a silver, gold, or platinum certificate at the end of the month based on their overall achievement. This is definitely not a program for the faint hearted, but with the weather cool, and the summer beach bodies in the back of everyone’s minds, we expect there to be plenty of focused, dedicated participants in the coming months.
