STAY STRONG FITNESS: FOR ALL AGES

STRETCHING, FOAM ROLLING, CORE & BACK STRENGTHENING

 

This Stay Strong Fitness class is a class format I created for all ages, and is designed for any level of fitness. I demonstrate progressions and modifications of exercises for different fitness levels. I aim to keep you strong safely.

Decrease muscle stiffness, reduce aches and pains, prevent injury, and improve posture and flexibility by stretching and foam rolling your ENTIRE body. Eliminate back pain, improve balance, stability and posture by keeping your core and back strong! We will incorporate some balance exercises as well. STRETCHES AND CORE WORK DONE STANDING AND ON THE MAT, AND FOAM ROLLING DONE ON THE MAT.

This class is a dose of what your body needs on a daily basis, and you will feel rejuvenated when you are done.

I am ALL ABOUT SUPPORTING ONE ANOTHER, BUILDING ONE ANOTHER UP, AND HELPING EACH OTHER FEEL PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY STRONG VIA FITNESS. I also BRING EXPERIENCE, ENTHUSIASM, PASSION, GREAT CARDIO / STRENGTH TRAINING ROUTINES, AS WELL AS AWESOME MUSIC TO KEEP YOU MOTIVATED AND HAVING FUN!


I’m hooked on Cynthia’s workout classes - both online and in person! Currently, I’m enrolled in the strength/cardio online class and the stretch/foam rolling in person class. I was skeptical of joining the online class. But Cynthia encouraged me (like she always does) to try it out and I LOVE it! The strength/cardio class is a challenging, full body workout in the comfort of my own home. If I miss a class there’s a recording so I can do the class when it’s convenient for my schedule. The in person stretch/foam rolling class has helped me with flexibility and balance. Cynthia tailors her classes to individual needs. Everything we do can be modified to how my body feels that day.

I’ve known Cynthia for years. She’s good-natured and has a delightful demeanor. She encourages me to push my body to get the most out of my workouts. Cynthia is an excellent trainer who cares about me and all her clients. After I do my “Cynthia Workout” I’m energized and feel so very good about myself!

I look forward to my 5:30 pm class in person Stay Strong Fitness class each Wednesday, led by Cynthia Portugal. Her empathetic and motivating spirit creates an ideal atmosphere for me to safely and productively increase strength, balance and stretching. Cynthia offers many modifications to guide people of all levels to safely participate in class. Bonus: her music selection is awesome and the low-key, supportive atmosphere Cynthia has created is relaxing and fun. I leave totally chilled-out from my day and happy that I’ve helped my body support me.

I have really enjoyed Cynthia’s classes. I take her in person Stay Strong class for all ages (stretch, foam roll, etc), and her online cardio & strength training for ages 50 and beyond. She is a seasoned instructor and very motivating. She customizes her class to best meet the needs of the participants. While the classes are a lot of fun, they are also challenging. I always feel like I got a great workout after participating. Cynthia is excellent at modifying the exercises so that participants get the most benefit with the least chance of any injury. She is really great at making everyone feel comfortable and accomplished in her classes. Her classes have a real sense of camaraderie amongst the class participants, and I am looking forward to partaking in more of them.
