Get Fit, Chick! In the City! FCITC Winter Boot Camp

Looking for a kick butt, 50 minute workout that is located in the heart of New York City that is inside, warm, and reasonably priced?  Look no further than my blog buddy Jess' (the Fit Chick in the City herself) Winter Boot Camp!

I woke up this morning, not wanting to brave the cold and snow, but I like Jess and she is in good shape, so I figured it would be a wise way to start the day.  I headed to Pearl Studios, located between 35th and 36th streets on 8th ave, to join a band of warrior women who also wanted to start the New Year right.

Jess popped in her Ipod and had us start with jumping jacks, high knees, and plank work.  I started sweating right away (good sign), and then we used our yoga mats as weights which is an awesome idea!  Who knew your yoga mat could get so heavy?  My favorite part of the workout was when we broke out some dish towels, put them under our feet, and used them for lunges and plank v's.  IT WAS SO HARD!

Jess (in blue) tortures- I mean works out- the lady warriors.

It's hard work but it looks good!

We ended the class with a nice cool down and stretch.  I felt ready for the day, and it only took 50 minutes!
