Aesthetic Athletics is all about feeling better, looking better and moving better. It is about lifting, moving and performing like an adult athlete even if we're not going to go out on the field or court and compete. This programming is designed to give us the strength work that we like to do and combine it with movements that still make us perform like an athlete. The Aesthetic Athletics program is designed to push us in the gym but make sure that we are still able to perform outside of the gym whether that's at a weekly work kickball league, pick up basketball game, golfing with some buddies or that bar league volleyball game every Wednesday night. We get to work on some athletic qualities, but still get to lift those heavy weights that we like to lift. No matter what level of life we are in this programming is designed to help us feel better, look better and move better.
