Wednesday I usually bring up a local blog I think you’d be interested in checking out but there’s an event coming up that I’m really excited about that I can’t wait to blog! The New Year always brings new resolutions and the most popular is the want to lose weight. Lucky for you, in a few weeks is the Girlnetic Jumpstart to Fitness Expo. On Saturday, January 26th from 9:00AM-5:00PM at the Taste Penthouse on Beaver Street in Albany.

Never heard of Girlnetic? Girlnetic started as a way to help average athletes and more specifically women to achieve fitness without depending on just a gym. The best way to achieve your fitness goals is to do it with a partner so you have someone to motivate you. Girlnetic uses that example with their mantra “fitness, friendship, fun!” proving that fitness is more achievable when done socially.

Jumpstart 2013 begins with this Fitness Expo on January 26 where you can learn not only different methods of fitness but also how to pair that with general healthy living choices. Following the expo is a month-long series of health and fitness events that you can sign up for at this fitness expo. If you find that there are classes that you really enjoy, you can purchase a pass at a discounted rate just for joining this expo! Registration is $15 per person and includes a Girletic tee, a swag bag including awesome fitness goodies from the many participating vendors, a raffle ticket and more! All proceeds will benefit the YWCA of the Greater Capital Region and their mission to provide safe housing, case management, counseling and other general support for women in times of crisis.

This is a great opportunity to JUMPSTART your New Year’s resolution and get fit and get active! TO register for only $15 per person, check out their website HERE. There is a lot more fitness information on their website as well as a HUGE source of fitness material to help you get fit! I’m so excited to see what all there is to experience at this event, hope to see you there!

CONTEST: I have two tickets to give away to this event to one lucky reader. Just answer me one question, what’s your favorite workout to do at the gym?
