Welcome ClassPass To San Diego

If you have followed me for any length of time you know I am into working out even though it may not look like it. Well, with the holidays coming up though I seem to be getting lazier and lazier. I am finding myself making excuses to eat that California burrito and just saying starting January 1st back to it strong. The problem with that is, that if I start that long away I will have already been half way to my goal if I start now. So no more excuses time to get my ass into gear...


This is where Classpass comes into play. Last week the lovely people of Classpass contacted me through Kailyn to be apart of their launch here in San Diego. Also, it helps we can be workout buddies. In return, I get one free month of Classpass. 

What is Classpass you ask? It is a monthly subscription of $99 to have access to unlimited studios in San Diego. You are limited to take 3 classes at your favorite studio in a monthly billing cycle though. Worried your class is too full, no worries now. Classpass allows you to register for a class a week in advance to schedule your workouts when you want them. Now you can spin on Mondays, Barre on Tuesday at lunch and Hot Yoga on Thursdays all at your finger tips. How easy is that right?


Now, let's say you went to Chicago and you don't want to miss Spin on Monday, you are in luck with classpass flex. With no extra money through 2014, you are able to get in your class. Classpass is available in Boston, Chicago, New York, LA, San Francisco, Washington DC and Seattle. Go explore the world and still get your workouts in.  

Here are some extra tips that I read that you might be interested in. If you register for a class and can't make it because things do happen, you must cancel 24 hours in advance. If you fail to follow this rule, you will lose a class at that studio and be charged $20 as a no show. Keep in mind that this is a monthly subscription, if you choose to cancel you must do so 3 days before your next billing cycle. Also, if you later choose to reactivate it because you found it suites your lifestyle it is $79 reactivation fee. To find out more, read their FAQ. Still have questions?  feel free to email them at info@classpass.com 

Lastly with the holidays here, looking for an awesome Christmas gift for someone, try gifting them a class pass as well.

Stay tune to find out how this next month goes. Kailyn and I have a plan to go on Black Friday to a class.    


Disclosure: Classpass gifted me a free month of services in exchange for sharing about them. However, all opinions are my own.

Dear Girl On The Deadmill Next To Me



Dear Girl On The DeadMill Next To Me,

I have a few things to tell you because you motivated me without even realizing it. It sparked something in me that I never knew existed. 

Let me be the first to tell you how amazing you are. 
You are putting in the hard work. You looked around as if anyone noticed us in the corner of the cardio room. Let me tell you, we all notice each other but we aren't judging. We have all been there before. Just keep working hard and we will all support each other in this journey.  

Next, I saw you checking out my deadmill wondering what I was doing. Please don't let it fool you, this is just the beginning of my journey. Also, I saw you giving me "that look", the same look I give the skinny girls in the locker room because I am a bit jealous. Don't let it stop you, let this be motivation to keep going and keep coming back. We all must start somewhere in this journey. Did you wake up yesterday, the day after Easter feeling regret for eating all that yummy family food? I have been there, where I stepped on the scale and here I am weighing 35 pounds more than I ever wanted to be.  

Next, I saw your smile and that proud moment when you first started running. I was wondering if that was the first time you ran in a very long time because of that smile, I was very proud of you. You are achieving many milestones that you probably didn't think was possible. Don't ever give up and you will reach many more goals. 

Those moments when you need to walk instead of run just remind yourself that you are doing a lot more than the others who didn't even make it to the gym. Remind yourself you are doing this for you and that it is perfectly okay to take sometime out for yourself to go to the gym. 

Please continue to keep coming to the gym. You are worth every step of the journey. This is your journey and you are in charge of it. 

Sincerely,
Jessica
