You’re invited to take part in Stroller Strong Mom’s of Savannah’s Get Fit Challenge.

The Get Fit Challenge is a 10 week program that starts the week of January 19th and ends the week of March 30th.

It will include both a fitness assessment (during class time) and body composition assessment (before or after class) at the start and end of the program. The fitness assessment will include five different exercises that will be counted/timed. The body composition assessment will use a handheld bodyfat monitor.
You will receive points in the following ways:
-Class attendance
-Improvement in fitness assessment
-Improvement in body composition assessment
-How well you follow your nutrition goal

The Get Fit Challenge will happen during Stroller Strong Moms’ regular class days and times. The body composition testing will occur before or after class on those days.

Points will be tallied throughout the program and participants with the most points at the end of the 10 weeks will receive gift card prizes.  Participants will be divided into two groups based on the initial assessment results. This will make it fair across the board and encourage everyone to compete against others who are at their same fitness level.
You will take a before/after picture at class at the start and end of the program so you can see how much the hard work payed off!

Cost: $40 registration fee for the Get Fit Challenge. Payment can be made here.  Scroll halfway down and you will see it on the right side of the screen.
