I start by saying “thank you, thank you, thank you”!
I am Jeffrey Adams! ……. A firm believer that a candle never loses it light by lighting another candle. One day I woke up and decided to make my avocation my vocation. So, here I am living my dreams showing adults and children that fitness can be fun!!!!We all have our gifts and passions, touching lives through exercise is my gift and I want to share it with the world. So I am always happy to be a guest instructor at other facilities. It is a compliment when I am invited. My approach to group fitness is simple… K.I.S.S. Keep It Simple Stupid.
Music, energy, enthusiasm, motivation, and sweat allow me to create an encouraging atmosphere where challenge meets in a group setting. I then go into autopilot!In class, We strive for “perfect” form, “excellent” endurance, and “dynamic “ intensity with each second, minute, hour, day, week, month, and year of our workouts!
Before moving to Atlanta in 2007, I trained privately and taught classes at Club H, Body By Mike, Gold’s Gym, NYSC, and Crunch in New York . While in Atlanta, I continued with Crunch and worked with corporate fitness groups teaching in Midtown, Sandy Springs , Dawsonville helping create boot-camp programs for a short time before becoming Group Fitness Regional Director for Crunch. Since then I have been able to once again experience different fitness facilities and spread my love for fitness. The motto” No Judgments” allow members to do their best and I love to apply that philosophy! Since then I have been able to work with many groups throughout the Atlanta area and these experiences are very humbling. It is encouraging to hear “I have had a great experience and felt challenged “after a class”
I teach and specialize in creating innovative group fitness programs both indoor and outdoor for many demographics never forgetting that this isn’t my workout, I am here for you. I have had twenty years of experience as an instructor and military physical training. This has allowed me to work and learn from some of the best instructors the fitness industry has to offer.
I enjoy producing Fitness and Wellness shows, I produced several for BCAT Television. I enjoy appearing and have been on various local news programs spotlighting fitness as well as produced my own fitness specials. AFAA (Aerobics and Fitness Association of America), MADD DOGG ATHLETICS , American Red Cross CPR Certification, ISCA (International Sports Conditioning Association) and IFTA (Interactive Fitness Trainers of America) are some of my professional affiliations.
3 Moves for Sexy Summer Arms
Hey Ladies!
Your man doesn’t have to be the only one with tickets to the gun show this summer. Try these three exercises to get your arms in shape for those sexy sleeveless shirts and shoulder-bearing halter tops (work your way up to 3 sets of 15 reps of each of these exercises):
Chair Push-ups. Push-ups are the multitasking exercise for arms, since they work all of the muscle groups at once. Using a chair, place your hands on either side of the seat, and put your feet together on the ground. (Your body will be at an incline.) Arms will go from straight to bent, as you lower yourself into a pushup position. Make sure to keep your shoulders over your writs and your rear end in alignment with the rest of your body.
Military Press. Tone your shoulders with a good, old-fashioned military press. Using 8-pound free weights, bring both arms up to 90-degree angles, so that elbows are in line with your shoulders. (Palms should be facing away from your body.) Press arms straight up to where there is just a slight bend in your elbows, and then lower them back down to 90-degree angles. No free weights? No problem. Just grab a couple of 20-ounce water bottles.
Bicep Curls. No arm workout would be complete without a little something to tone those biceps. Again, free weights or water bottles will work. Stand with feet about shoulder-width apart. Keep your elbows at your sides as you lift and lower both water bottles to your shoulders (palms facing your shoulders) and then back down to where your elbows have just a slight bend in them. When you’re finished, crack open one of the bottles to hydrate!
