VirtuRide in North Miami will once again be hosting the indoor cycling event Parkinson's Revolution on Saturday June 11, 2022. The national event is organized by the Parkinson’s Foundation with the goal to raise awareness and funds for Parkinson’s Disease.

Parkinson’s is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the US, affecting over 1 million people. In support of the cause, similar Revolution events take place across the country on the same day for inspiring, high-energy rides that bring awareness and advance the mission toward a cure.

Riders of all abilities are welcome to gear up and join the fundraising event. VirtuRide combines exercise and a great theater experience into one, featuring moving bikes in front of a mega screen. The event includes pre-class activation with a Parkinson’s disease education table and an interactive photo booth, in-studio mission moments and an opening ceremony, and a post-class closing ceremony with a toast and fundraising celebration.

Parkinson's Revolution Miami is hoping to raise $25,000 through the event. For more information or to register click here.

Mercedes Benz Corporate Run announced 2022 dates today for their three annual 5K races in South Florida. This will be the 37th anniversary of the downtown Miami race.

Fort Lauderdale - April 7, 2022

West Palm Beach - April 13, 2022

Miami - April 28, 2022

The Mercedes-Benz Corporate Run presented by Turkish Airlines and hosted by Team Footworks is an institution in South Florida and is one of the largest 5K races in the nation. Though the first Miami Corporate Challenge had just 1,315 participants, local runners now had a fun event that they could share with their co-workers and participation grew exponentially over time. In 2018, Miami alone drew 28,265 participants and over 850 companies.

The purpose of the Mercedes-Benz Corporate Run is to promote running and walking as a means to a fit, healthy lifestyle for people from all walks of corporate life. The runs are held in the evening during the work week and all levels of fitness are welcomed. Beginners and walkers participate in the event, taking as much time as needed to complete the 3.1 mile course while competitive runners have the opportunity to shine amongst their co-workers.

While registration deadlines are not until March, these races sell out quickly and often weeks before the deadline date.

You can sign your company up by going to mercedesbenzcorporaterun.com.

For the third year in a row, Miami was ranked the healthiest city in America as part of the annual Mindbody Wellness Index. This means that we ranked higher than Los Angeles, San Diego, and 47 other most populous US cities.

Being the healthiest city involves a holistic look at wellness, not just exercise rates, including factors like levels of stress, amounts of rest, and connection within the community, among others. Here are some of the reasons that Miami ranked #1, according to Mindbody:

"The Magic City is the least stressed and the most well rested. They eat their fruits and vegetables, stay hydrated, engage in mentally stimulating activities, and feel connected to their community. This city is one of the fittest, it has the highest number of residents who engage in exercise at least once a week (over 80%) and do so for at least 90 minutes a week (over 56%). Residents are willing to stay up late to fit in movement, earning the title of most likely to book an evening workout. They’re also spending more than any other city at salons and spas, wellness businesses, and fitness studios and gyms."

GluteHouse made its debut last year and has been a go-to for anyone looking to build their lower body ever since. Now, the programming is coming to wherever you are for those unable to attend the studio.

GluteHouse On-The-Go is a new, app-based online program designed to be your one stop shop for everything related to your lower body, specifically glutes. Perfected in-studio, these workouts will complement the rest of your training each week and promises to give you the glutes of your dreams.

The programming runs in four week cycles with two dedicated workouts a week. Through the GluteHouse Training app, you can access your workouts, track your weights, store your progress photos, message your coaches, and cheer on the rest of the #GluteGang from the message board.

The GluteHouse OTG program is for all levels. Each movement has a detailed video and notes section to go over how to set up and perform the movement and what you should be thinking about and feeling throughout the set. These cues and extra touches are what make this program different from other influencer workouts you may find online.

Members also have access to the OTG coaches via the training app, with the ability to message them and ask about technique and form, weight recommendations, substitutions, or anything else you might need.

"We designed a program that is meant to give you incredible results but more importantly teach you the proper ways to strength train," says Adam Becker, GluteHouse Founder. "We made sure this was an extension of what you can expect inside the studio. We didn't put together a pretty PDF with basic bodyweight workouts or waste time putting together highly produced videos that don't explain the structure of your workouts and how the are going to get you to your goals. We put our time and effort into coaching our clients and we will teach them lessons on everything they need to know to become the confident lifter everyone has inside of them."

Right now, GluteHouse On-The-Go is offering a special 'OG' membership rate of $59 per cycle for those who sign up by January 2. Additionally, anyone who signs up before Monday, December 20 will be entered to win one of 12 giveaways, which include a year free of GluteHouse OTG, a $500 Lululemon giftcard, and a Caribbean vacation.

Use promo code STAYFIT305 to get your first month free and lock in the OG pricing.

The first cycle starts on January 3 and after that date, pricing will increase to $99 per cycle. For more information, head to https://www.glute-house.com/onthego or check out @glutehouse on Instagram.

Their franchised fleet of gyms-on-wheels are owned and operated by local TRX-certified coaches, or as they like to call them, “OICs" or OutFitters-In-Charge, and are networked via a state-of-the-art technology platform and member app - the OutFit Training App.

OutFit Training is founded by a former Navy SEAL Squadron Commander and their philanthropic efforts are as important as the health and fitness it delivers to its members.

What makes OutFit Training unique:

"OutFit aims to change the world of fitness forever. We believe that everyone should have access to affordable, convenient, expertly coached fitness experiences," said Hetrick.

OutFit delivers actual reality with affordably priced, expertly led 'boutique' fitness directly into the inspiring public spaces that surround us in our neighborhoods every day."

Why members love it:

Members love the challenge of pushing themselves and taking their workouts to the next level by using OutFit's special color-timer system. They also say they love the coaches and the people because you get that camaraderie at workouts, so you push each other, challenge each other, and become a family.

The extras:

The OutFit Training app is the hub of all things OutFit. One awesome feature within the app is the friends feature. This feature allows OutFitters to view "OutFit friends" workout progress, when they are planning to attend their next class, and more, so that they can meet up, push each other, and challenge each other.

How to join in:

When you download the OutFit Training app, the first class is free. After that there are drop-in fees per class or you can subscribe. With the subscription, just like any Netflix or Apple Music subscription, you get billed monthly and you get access to an unlimited number of workouts. There are no cancellation fees and all payments are done right in the app.
