BAD, BAD, SUPER BAD BOOT CAMP starts February 4th. Six InsideOut trainers go head to head with a group of eight Boot Campers whipping them into the best shape of their lives. BOOT CAMP meets twor days a week for one hour and on Saturdays for two hour endurance sessions.

WHAT'S SO GREAT ABOUT OUR BOOT CAMP? The beauty of this Boot Camp is that participants will experience 6 different disciplines because we use 6 different trainers who have 6 different specialites, including Spinning, Rowing, Boxing, TRX, Running, and PEAK Interval training. You'll be inside, outside, and upside down by the time we're finished with you.

CHANGE! Change is the key to getting strong, losing weight and getting in your best shape - and our BOOT CAMP workouts change so much that no one knows what to expect - and that's the key to success.

TRX. That's what it's all about this month - the addition of TRX Suspension training to our already incredible group of FREE classes. Click on our class menu at the left, then on the TRX tab and check out this unbelievable new fitness system.

"You're not sick; you're thirsty. Don't treat thirst with medication."

- Dr. F. Batmanghelidj

Thirteen years ago, Dr. F. Batmanghelidj came to InsideOut to promote his book, Your Body's Many Cries for Water. We sponsored a Saturday workshop to educate our members about the importance of being hydrated, and Dr. Batman went on to become the foremost expert on water - hydration, in particular. Today, his foundation supports a website to continue that education. Read on, and check it out, then fill up your water bottles, over and over everyday, and STAY HYDRATED.

From the website . . .

Our life, our planet. Over 70% of the earth's surface is water. However, most of it—98%--is salt water. Only 2% of the earth's H20 is fresh water that we can drink, and of this, almost all is trapped in frozen glaciers.

You are not just what you eat; you are what you drink. This is why water is so important to your health.

The Water Cure (TWC) does not sell water or purification systems or any related products. We offer insights and information; both free and in books that give you easy-to-understand scientific explanations on why water is vital to your well-being.

TWC believes promoting "water for health, for healing, for life" is an invaluable public health message. We can all change the way we drink – by drinking pure, natural water that is good for our health, our pocket book, and our environment.

No miracles. Just common sense backed by Dr. F. Batmaghelidj’s years of research and investigation into why water works so well in keeping us healthy and pain free. It can even cure illness in some people who get sick.

Water is the basis of all life and that includes your body. Your muscles that move your body are 75% water; your blood that transport nutrients is 82% water; your lungs that provide your oxygen are 90% water; your brain that is the control center of your body is 76% water; even your bones are 25% water.

As always, the solution is multi-faceted, especially in the case of athletes. Read about hydration and adequate salt intake below.

CAN WE DRINK TOO MUCH WATER?

During intense exercise the kidneys cannot excrete excess water. The extra water moves into the cells, including brain cells. The result can be fatal. For that reason, athletes should estimate how much they should drink by weighing themselves before and after long training runs to see how much they lose, and thus how much water and salt they should replace.

The studies that found 13% of the runners tested drank too much water, resulting in abnormally low blood sodium levels. The low sodium levels made many of these people very sick, and close to the point of death. The importance lesson here is to balance your water intake with your sodium intake.

Our health is truly dependent on the quality and quantity of the water we drink. Check it out. Click on the link below and HYDRATE!

Stop by InsideOut and check out any of our 50 classes a week that are FREE for our members. When people ask what makes us different from all of the other gyms and health clubs in Memphis, the answer is simple - EVERYTHING! From the sheer number and variety of our FREE classes to our exceptional staff and personal trainers, InsideOut is definitely a cut above the rest. No other gyms in Memphis have a friendly staff and welcoming environment like InsideOut. Ask any one of our members, or come in and see for yourself.

InsideOut is Midtown's Gym. We first opened our doors 13 years ago on Young Avenue in the heart of Cooper Young. That was 1996 and we moved to our current location at 2162 Courtland Pl in 2001, and are now even more centrally located to all of Midtown.

What continues to make us different? How about having the owners on site all day, everyday! There aren't many gyms or many businesses whose owners manage and actively take part in the daily running of the business. That's the difference at InsideOut. Donna, Natalie, and Lisa work, manage, and teach classes at the gym on a daily basis, so your concerns as members are the priority. Our goal is to offer our members the best and the newest in the fitness industry - so that you don't get bored, so that you continue to get better.
