Want killer abs? Less excess baggage? Or to be able to run a marathon? There's nothing wrong with having really specific fitness goals, and in fact clarity can help illuminate the way forward and allow for an effective exercise strategy to be set in motion.

Nothing says 'manly' like a ripped six-pack. Fashions come and go but looking buff with killer abs is a timeless sign of masculinity. Those rippling muscles and washboard stomach show that a  man really cares about his physique, is active and tries to eat the right foods.

Overweight; underweight; lacking definition; lusting after perfect abs; planning to run a marathon or simply seeking a better quality of life; there are 101 reasons that you might want and need to get fit in a focused way for a specific reason. This is why over recent years, the fitness world has seen the rise and rise of the personal trainer, as more people realize that one-on-one training combines effective training with fast results.

In March, First Defense will hold 2 focused Krav Maga workshops. Because of Eyal's visit in February, we weren't able to schedule our regular monthly workshop that month. So, to make it up, we're having 2 workshops in March!

First Defense is now offering classes for beginners on Wednesday nights at 7pm and Saturday mornings at 11am.

These classes will focus on fundamentals and lower level curriculum. For beginners not completely comfortable with jumping into our regular mixed-level classes, these beginner classes are a great way to build your fitness and skills.

Depression is an affliction millions suffer from on a daily basis. Doing anything, let alone exercising, when you are feeling depressed is no easy task, especially when some days it might be hard to just get out of bed. However, many studies show that exercising can help combat depression and bring physical and psychological benefits.

Children across the globe are slowing down! That's according to a fairly recent study which looked at studies over nearly a 50 year period involving more than 25 million youngsters. Compared to kids 30 years ago, young people today run a mile 90 seconds slower.

All classes cancelled for Thursday, Feb 13.

Stay warm & if you need to go out, drive safely.
