The Saturday Morning Crew kicked butt as they performed an intense conditioning cycle today. There were 4 stations were: Concept II SkiErg, Schwinn Windsprint, Concept II Rower and Marpo Kinetics Viper Rope. Each man did a station for 2 minutes and rested for 1 minute between each station for their first round. Their second round consisted of 90 seconds with 1 minute rest between stations and their 3rd and final round was 1 minute long with 1 minute rest between stations. They pushed each interval very hard and needless to say, were beat after they were done. Job well done, fellas!

The Viper LT by Marpo Kinetics - Now at Premiere Personal Fitness

Premiere Personal Fitness has recently acquired the Viper LT by Marpo Kinetics. The Viper is a multi-purpose piece of equipment that can be used for strength training, upper-body cardio, rehabilitation and as part of an all-around fitness program. With its 7 levels of speed/resistance, a trainee - regardless of their age -can perform numerous activities at different levels of effort. Designed primarily to simulate rope climbing (which strongly engage the entire back, biceps, forearms, shoulders and gripping muscles of the hands), the Viper LT also provides the ability to perform exercises that involve the triceps, legs, chest and abdominals. Because the Viper is so versatile in its use for cardiovascular training, strength or rehabilitation, it can provide one helluva workout.

Trust me, the gang at Premiere will be getting in some intense workouts with this piece. If anyone is interested in using the Viper, feel free to contact me to set up an appointment. - Fred Fornicola
