Dawn Patrol
Lately on Fridays I've been getting up with the birds of Boston for Friday morning Spin! class with Elise at Healthworks. There is no better way to kick off the weekend than with a brisk walk through Copley and an awesome workout that wraps up by 7AM. Dawn Patrol, in full force! Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Week of Health - 5 Free Days at Healthworks!
One of my sayings with my coworkers is "Week of health!" We say this to inspire eachother to make healthy food choices during the week (read: no more trips to the candy bowl) and also as a reminder to sign up for our favorite classes at the gym together. Healthworks is a huge part of my weekly routine, and the routine of the girls I work with, and I am excited to invite my readers to join us this week for a free week of health!
During the month of February, Healthworks is offering a 5-day guest pass to anyone who wants to check out the club and enjoy some workouts. In addition to the regular schedule at the gym, Healthworks will be offering "food, music, specialty Group Fitness Classes, Complimentary Small Group Training for you and a friend, shopping, pampering and so much more!" Read more about the open house here.
If you want to join me in some serious calorie burns this week, or just check out one of the clubs on your own, print out this voucher and let them know that BostonSweetieBlog sent you. If you use the voucher this week (Feb. 11 - 15) and end up joining the gym, you will get a $0 enrollment fee which is a great benefit, but you are welcome to use the voucher for any 5-day period in February.
I've raved about my favorite spin class on the blog before- Elise's Monday night or Saturday morning classes are definitely worth checking out and should be #1 on your list. I also love/hate Tabata with Sean on Wednesday nights (love because it's an insanely good workout, hate because it's really, really hard), and HW Barre with Helene on Thursday nights. If you've never tried a barre class, I'd highly recommend it. It's a low-impact strength class that will show you some muscles you never even knew you had.
Healthworks is the best gym I've belonged to. It's all women, super clean and spa-like, and just really, really nice. If you are looking for a gym or have been curious about Healthworks, you should check it out this week. It's free for 5 days, so why not, right?! If you want to meet up at any classes, leave me a comment in the notes below and we'll make a plan!

Clique
It's Friday, and therefore appropriate for a random I FREAKING LOVE THIS SONG post. I first heard it in spinning and now it's a staple in my workout playlists (and a staple 'get ready' song!) What's on your workout playlist?

Spinning in the Cluuuub
You can find me in the cluuuuub! Healthworks Fitness Club, that is, (har har) I just had to post a rave review of Ride! at my gym, and Elise, who is the best spin instructor EVER. I've been taking her classes at Healthworks for the last five to six months religiously (except for those annoying times when I can't get a ticket) because the workout she leads in 45 minutes is insane, and she has the best playlists. I always completely sweat through my outfit and feel like a champion afterward. She really knows how to inspire the class to not only push it and work hard, but also to just breath and appreciate the "you" time that comes with any workout.
This week, Elise brought it to a whole new level by bringing in glowstick necklaces and bracelets for the class, and making it a club-themed night! I think I smiled like a big nerd through the whole class, even through that 7-minute climb, because I was so into the theme of the night. I pushed harder than ever because it was so. much. fun!
I am hesitant to publish this post because getting a ticket for Elise's class is getting to be just as hard as winning the lottery, but, she rocks and I want to publicly say thank you. Elise has her own blog, Eat. Sweat. Balance. and posts her playlists and free downloads- good stuff.
