Ask a dad what he thinks a stroller fitness class is and he'll likely answer - some moms pushing around their strollers and talking all the while sipping on their morning coffee. Not exactly - as some local dads found out this past weekend.
Stroller Power Jupiter kicked off its Saturday class schedule on April 28 with an invitation to Dads from around Jupiter to join their wives and babies for a one-hour indoor, stroller-based exercise class.
Two local dads, including the husband of Stroller Power Jupiter creator, Cindy Martling, were on hand for the class. The dads were joined by several Stroller Power moms with resistance tubes in hand - ready to move.
After a brief warm-up, the class was off completing cardio drills and resistance workouts for 45 minutes. It was evident that the moms had the "Stroller Power" today.
The workout wasn't over. There was still 15 minutes of core training and stretching to be done. When the class finished, the dads had a greater appreciation for their wives and the intense workout they do during the week .
Stroller Power classes are a group exercise class for any adult with a child in a stroller. Each class features cardio, strength training and flexibility exercises in an interval fitness setting. Stroller Power classes are designed for all fitness levels and ages. Stroller fitness classes are in high demand all over the country as moms have finally found a way to exercise with their children in tow.
When each dad was asked if he would return, they both said they would be back!
Stroller Power Saturday classes are held at the West Jupiter Recreation Center, 6401 Indiantown Road,Saturday mornings at 9am. The next classes are scheduled for May 5, 19, June 2, 9, 23, 30 and July 7, 14, 21, 28. There is a $5 fee per adult for each class. Call 747-3455 for more information or
