CLUB NEWS OF THE DAY
Friday, July 04, 2008 Summer has arrived. Now is the time to get in shape! Let the EQ team help you Achieve Equilibrium!

Studies show cardiovascular exercise has proven to be cumulative. If you have only twenty minutes for a run in the morning, add in a twenty five minute fast-paced walk in the evening and the combination still counts for a forty five minute cardio session for the day.
TESTIMONIALS
"When I heard that the best trainer at my old club was joining a new adventure, I wondered if I I would follow him there. I wasn't unhappy with where I was, but then I experienced Equilibrium. The place is beautiful, and the staff uniformly positive, upbeat, and talented. The look is clean and pretty hip, but the community is not intimidating. In no time at all, they knew which was my favorite locker and which delicious shake to have waiting for me after each workout. I am definitely in better shape now then I was. I have lost fat and gained muscle, and I am happy to endorse Equilibrium enthusiastically to my friends."
