Personalized Workouts and Internet on Cardio

NEW!
Personalized workouts, workout tracking and Web feeds are now available on the cardio equipment at Mission Valley! Your Precor AMTs, ellipticals, treadmills and cycles are now outfitted with Preva Net, offering personalization and Internet access to popular topics such as health and fitness, news, sports, technology, business and more. It's all delivered in a format designed specifically for the in-motion exerciser and will help to make your workout experience engaging and productive (and who couldn't use that?!).

BODYPUMP


Watch this video from the first BODYPUMP class at Mission Valley, created by our very own Maryann Nowell.

BODYPUMP classes offer a fantastic, calorie-burning workout. Music and choreography changes every few months, keeping it fresh and interesting. See group exercise class schedules for regular days/times at Mission Valley and Toby Wells.
