It's 2025, and with the craziness of the holiday season behind us, many of us are looking for ways to regain our strength and tap into that New Year energy. As we look ahead, it's crucial to focus on both physical and mental well-being, which includes prioritizing exercise to start the year strong, and Planet Fitness is here to help. Industry trends have shown that people are looking to do more strength training. Not only does it help develop muscle, but it also helps preserve muscle mass that naturally declines as we age. Stronger muscles also help with bone density and injury prevention, as they provide better joint support and overall physical stability. To help members get stronger together, Planet Fitness is starting to roll out plate-loaded equipment, including Supine Bench Presses, Hack Squats, and Seated Calf machines. They're already in 1,700 clubs nationwide and will be in all clubs by the end of the year. If you are looking to get back to the gym after stepping away from exercising, there are a few things to keep in mind. Start every workout with a dynamic stretching routine. That will get your blood flowing to the muscles and joints to offset injury and prepare for movements such as arm circles, leg swings, or caterpillars. It's also important to get a complete total body workout with a strength circuit that targets various muscle groups. Lastly, finish your workout with a cardio blast to help maximize calorie burn and improve overall cardiovascular health and endurance. For more information, visit PlanetFitness.com to find the nearest club to you. From now through January 10, join for $1 down, then $15 a month. You can cancel anytime.

00:00Hi I'm Teddy Savage, National Lead Trainer for Planet Fitness and I'm super
00:04excited because it's the new year! It's a perfect opportunity for all of us to
00:08renew, refocus, and recharge. And the name of the game in 2025 is strength training.
00:14And it's not just because it builds stronger muscles, it's also because when
00:18you do strength training your brain releases endorphins. Those are
00:22neurotransmitters that act as your body's natural mood enhancers and energy
00:26boosters while at the same time relieving stress and anxiety. And if
00:30your holiday season was stressful like mine was, strength training can help you
00:34relieve both of those things at the same time. And strength training is a
00:38component of holistic well-being. And so in order for us to all confidently get
00:43stronger together, Planet Fitness is excited to let you all know that we're
00:47launching a new plate loaded strength series with three pieces of dynamic
00:51strength. It's going to be a supine bench, a hack squat, and a seated calf raise. All
00:56of them dynamic in their own right, but when you combine them into a total body
01:00workout routine, you get the most out of it. Not only physically, but mentally as
01:04well. Because when you work out, you're not only boosting your physical strength,
01:08but you're also improving mobility, range of motion, stability, flexibility, and so
01:13many more things. When you come in, I want you to take it one step at a time.
01:17Stretch before you work out. Do a total body dynamic routine. Get your cardio in
01:22at the end to maximize your calorie burn. And don't forget to stretch at the end.
