There wasnSA国际影视传媒檛 much activity on the streets of Rankin Inlet Saturday morning, but there was a group of women burning thousands of calories in the Leo Ussak School gym.
They were taking part in Lynette DidurSA国际影视传媒檚 Saturday warriors program, a fitness class that mixes kettlebell training, kickboxing and other strength and endurance activities.
Didur has been running variants of the weekly class for years and has seen it gain popularity since Covid-19.
SA国际影视传媒淲eSA国际影视传媒檝e had a very large class this particular fall season, and a big mix of abilities as well,SA国际影视传媒� said Didur, who leads a fast-paced hour-long workout. SA国际影视传媒淲e have anybody from their first time coming in to people who have been with me for years. ItSA国际影视传媒檚 a really welcoming class that way.SA国际影视传媒�
Participants bounced from squats to push-ups to attacking each other with pool noodles, with sips of water as the only breaks. People of all abilities are welcome, and Didur prides herself on being able to teach multi-level classes that cater to everyone present.
SA国际影视传媒淚SA国际影视传媒檓 a big fan of teaching proper push-ups, so we do a lot of proper push-up progression,SA国际影视传媒� she said.
SA国际影视传媒淚tSA国际影视传媒檚 not so much about how many push-ups you can do, itSA国际影视传媒檚 how many push-ups you can do well. Some of the ladies may have been only able to do wall push-ups and now theySA国际影视传媒檙e doing full push-ups on the floor. ThatSA国际影视传媒檚 another huge improvement and something to be celebrated.SA国际影视传媒�
SheSA国际影视传媒檚 also proud to see participants grab bigger and heavier kettlebells as they get stronger.
For now, the class is taking a pause over the Christmas break, but Didur is already drawing up exercise plans for when it resumes early January.
