Group Fitness – February 2026 | Lift for Longevity + Sustainable Performance
- Temporary strain is part of long-term growth. Short-term effort or discomfort—even in our work—signals adaptation, not failure.
- The trend matters more than the moment. One tiring day isn’t a setback; what matters is steady practice and thoughtful recovery.
- Consistency beats intensity. Showing up regularly creates more durable results than pushing at maximum effort every day.
- Cycles build capacity. Lift → recover → rebuild. Similarly, work → rest → reset leads to sustained clarity and energy.

Take a Snack Break....for your Body!
We often think of snack breaks as something we eat for a quick energy boost-but what if we gave our bodies a movement snack instead?
Short bursts of "exercise snacks" are proven to boost circulation, improve focus, and help manage stress throughout the day. That's exactly what our 10-Minute Stretch Breaks are for. Join us from home or from your desk for a 10-minute stretch & move break every Tuesday and Thursday at 2:00pm CST via Teams - your body and brain will thank you.
Earn 75 points for every 10 group exercise classes (onsite or virtual) you attend—up to 150 points total. Once classes are completed, self-report via the Thrive with US portal:

Stay Successful with Group Fitness Classes
Stepping into a group fitness class for the very first time can feel intimidating, and our Group Fitness team is here to help! Here are a few tips to get started safely:
- Wear the Right Gear: Dress comfortably in clothes that allow you to move freely. We suggest wearing comfortable workout attire that allows for free total body movement. Shoes are optional in some classes and sneakers are recommended in others.
- Stay Hydrated: Hydrating your body can help you move more efficiently, so please be sure to drink water before, during, and after each class to stay hydrated and energized.
- Mind Your Alignment: Proper alignment is crucial to avoiding injury. Listen closely to your instructor’s cues.
- Listen to Your Body: Some exercises may feel challenging, but nothing should feel painful. If something hurts, adjust your range of motion or take a break.
- Start with Light Weights: If you're new to a move, focus on form, and increase the weight as you gain confidence and understanding of the class format.
- Take Breaks: Try not to rush through exercises (even the ones that are very challenging!) Move slowly and deliberately, especially with heavier weights, and take breaks when needed.
- Ask Questions: If you’re unsure about a movement, don’t be afraid to ask your instructor for help. All our teachers love helping beginners find their confidence. Never forget, even the most seasoned teachers were once beginners themselves.
