You Be Fit at YuBfit
07.19.11
We’re hearing effective results coming from the new YuBfit, a new TRX fitness studio in Huntington Beach. If TRX is new to you, it’s a suspension trainer with multiples planes of motions, so that muscles and joints are working at the same time, as opposed to weight training that focuses on one muscle at a time.
Two enthusiastic instructors, Tammy and Jonathan Yu, are offering TRX group training classes that give you personal attention, but also a chance to work out with friends. At Yubfit they also offer nutritional guidance so that you can look, feel and function at your best.
The group classes are designed to be fun, challenging and give you results. Classes available include RIP/Core, TRX Circuit Training, Boot Camp and more.
Classes are available at 6 a.m., 7:15 a.m. 9 a.m. 10:15 a.m., 3:45 p.m., 5 p.m., 6:15 p.m., and 7:30 p.m. Monday through Friday; and 8 a.m., 9 a.m. 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. Saturday.
It’s at 16612 Beach Blvd, in Huntington Beach. 714.837.0290.
