The City of Miami Beach hascompleted the long-awaited Phase II Middle Beach Recreational Corridor project.

This milestone marks theculmination of a continuous pedestrian path from South Pointe Park through 79Street, accomplishing a beach walk that connects North, Middle and South Beachfor the first time in the city’s history.

The beach walk is a popularwalking and running path for many locals and tourists, with the the AtlanticOcean to the East, and the row of hotels to the west.

This marks the second health& wellness improvement the city has made in as many weeks, with the recentunveiling of a fitnesslocker at Muscle Beach Miami on 9th and Ocean Drive atLummus Park.

Phase III of the beach walk projectis anticipated to begin this fall, which will eliminate the original walkingpath between 23 and 45 streets.

A little over a year ago, Sweat440 burst onto the South Florida fitness scene. Located in Sunset Harbour, the 2,700 square-foot gym has attracted patrons that, in a no-subtle way to put it, run on “Miami time.” In other words, if you can’t seem to commit to anything, or you find it hard arriving on time anywhere, chances are you’ve dropped into Sweat440.

Well, Co-Founders Cody Patrick and Matt Miller are ready to expand, with five new locations across South Florida and New York by the end of 2019.

“We want to continue building the Sweat440 community,” says chief operating officer Matt Miller. “We’ve built something special that is unique and convenient, and that has helped to enhance the lives in our community. Now its time to spread that into other areas of South Florida and New York.

The concept is simple. The Sweat440 workout is four fitness stations, eachlasting 10-minutes in duration. It’s a constant rotation, with a new set ofmembers joining the class every 10-minutes. Thus, if a guest is running late, theycan simply join the next rotation 10-minutes later.

“The flexibility of the scheduling with the ability to drop into a group fitness class anytime has been a huge hit,” says Miller. “The workouts are engaging, results-driven, and accessible to all different fitness level. We’ve had Justice Winslow from the Miami Heat, right next to a middle-aged woman doing ball slams.”

First up in the expansion is Sweat440 Coral Gables. Located in Merrick Manor, the 3,100 square-foot gym will feature groups of nine in each 10-minute rotation, as opposed to six. The Coral Gables location will feature a full suite of amenities like showers, bathrooms, retail, and more. The monitors that demonstrate the exercises at each station will be synced, so all Sweat440 gyms will be doing the same workout every day.

Sweat440 Brickell will follow shortly after, taking a location on 9th Street inside Brickell Heights, right next to SoulCycle. The huge, airy, 18-foot ceilings space, will serve as the flagship destination in the Sweat440 lineup. It too will feature a full suite of amenities like showers, bathrooms, retail, and more.

Sweat440 Chelsea will be the third gym in the expansion lineup, with a massive 5,000 square-foot space at 600 6th Ave in the heart of Manhattan’s trendy neighborhood. New York guests will be treated to the same programming and amenities as their South Florida counterparts.

“The flex-time model will really shine in New York,”says Miller. “It’s a city on-the-go, rushing to the subway, work, etc. Ourlocations are really centrally located in the heart of the neighbors.”

The other location Miller is referring to is Sweat440Tribeca, which is slated towards the end of 2019, along with Sweat440 Doral herein South Florida.

Sweat440 Gables is running a “Founding Members” rate of $99/Month. For more information visit https://sweat440.com/gyms/florida/coral-gables-33146/.

Muscle Beach Miami has unveiled a new fitness locker at it's recently revamped Lummus Park location on South Beach on 9th Street and Ocean Drive.

The locker is a 20’ standard shipping container, custom-fabricated to store the equipment necessary to create a world-class, multi-modality training center for up to 80 people.

The external attachments include 18 pull-up stations, a 12’ rope climb tower, and five squat stations.

The internal storage racks and shelves are designed to functionally organize and display the following equipment inventory: battle and climbing ropes, medicine balls (1.4 to 20 lbs.), kettlebells (12 to 24 kgs), Olympic and warm-up bars, bumper plates; sandbags, flat benches, lockjaw bar collars, lacrosse balls, gymnastic rings, agility cones and jump ropes.

So who's ready to get a sweat on the sand? See pictures from the unveiling below.

After years of teaching at various studios around town, Pilates instructor Rachel Scherdin knew the time was right to venture out on her own. Transition Pilates is the culmination of her years of experience leading group, semi-private, and private Pilates classes.

“I have never loved anything more than I love Pilates,” says Scherdin. “I wanted to create a space where I could share my passion and education with people.”

And create she did. Located inside Body & Soul, Transition Pilates is owned and operated independently, offering semi-private group classes on their five balanced body studio reformers, towers, and Pilates chairs, giving clients the one on one attention needed from the instructor.

Instructors are all comprehensively certified and come to Transition Pilates with 500+hours of training, then receive additional instruction specific to Scherdin’s specific approach.

"There is nothing worse than going to a studio and the instructor does not even know your name,” says Scherdin. “Pilates is very intricate, so if you are just placed on the equipment without the instructor helping you, you are getting set up to fail. With only five people in the class, the instructors can see every single detail to ensure you are getting the most out of your class.”

Transition Pilates is offering four class types at launch - Traditional Transition, Arms, Abs, & Ass, Cardio Jump, and Strength & Sculpt, which is billed as a fast-paced, low impact, class that will tone and sculpt your body in 60 minutes. Transition Pilates also specializes in pre and post-natal Pilates and diastasis correction.

Transition Pilates is offering STAY FIT 305 readers 25% off all group classes with the code “Stayfit305” – making your first class only $15. Transition Pilates is located at 3183 SW 38th CT, Coconut Grove, FL. Parking is available. For more information, visit www.transitionpilates.com.

AsSouth Florida continues to grow and develop, public-se green spaces like parkstend to be an afterthought. After all, why spend the money to maintain a publicpark when the land can be used to develop more luxury condos and apartments? eye-roll

But the City of Miami Beach is making a commitment to maintaining the beautiful green landscape and scenery that attracted transplants and kept natives here in the first place, with the transformation of the Miami Beach Convention Center surface parking lot into a 5.8-acre park.

Estimated to be completed this October, the new park will feature 500 new trees, open lawn spaces, shade areas, walkways, lighting, a Veterans memorial, public restroom facility, a flexible area space and stunning public art.

Theentire Convention Center campus, once finished, will have a total of 12 acresof new green spaces — considering the 5.8-acre park and the recently completed2.8-acre park on the north side, landscaped medians and streetscapes. The totalpervious area of the 25-acre Convention Center campus will also increase by245% and will have a total of 1,330 new trees, including 580 new mangrovesalong Collins Canal.

The project broke ground in early May 2019. See renderings of the completed project below.

A lot of us aregreat at staying active and fit - but how about taking the time we need torecover? Rest and recovery are important aspects of any fitness routine becausethey allow the body time to repair and strengthen itself in between workouts.

Now you can takeyour recovery to the next level here in Miami. Carillon Miami Wellness Resorthas elevated The Spa at Carillon Miami with new health and wellness offerings.

“Wellness hasalways been at the core of our resort, and we are pleased to debut the nextphase of The Spa at Carillon Miami with these new experiences,” said TammyPahel, Vice President of Spa Operations, Carillon Miami Wellness Resort. “Thewellness industry continues to grow and evolve, and we are proud to be changingwith it – continuing to be the top wellness resort in South Florida, providingunmatched options for health, well-being and beauty.”

The Carillon isthe largest spa and wellness space in the region at 70,000 square feet, and itfeatures a one-of-a-kind Thermal Experience with an Herbal Laconium, FinnishSauna, Crystal Steam Room, and Thermal Heated Loungers. There is also a HydroCircuit with a Vitality Pool, Experiential Rains, Foot Bath and a ColdExperience in the Igloo Suite.

Outside of yourtypical massages, there are some specific treatments geared towards helping thebody to recover. Here are four that are highly recommended by the Carillon.

Himalayan Salt Stone Massage

Combined withintensive deep tissue technique, Himalayan salt stones are used to revivefatigued muscles, rebalance the body and melt away stress; providing a healing,calming and relaxing experience. The heated stones help release deep-seatedtension on the deeper muscle layers and expand blood vessels to encourage bloodflow throughout the body. Their sedative effect can relieve chronic pain,reduce stress and promote deep relaxation.

Fitness Body Active Treatment

An energizingand remodeling treatment post work-out. Using a body mask made with yellow clayfrom Brazil, enriched with a plankton extract to stimulate your metabolism. Itsefficacy is boosted by using a Tui-Na technique. Ideal for combining with afitness program or to be included in an anti-cellulite and firming program.

Salt Float Bath Therapy

This therapyoffers a deep relaxation state achieved by allowing the body to recover fromstress. Pain is relieved, blood flow is stimulated through all the tissues,natural endorphins are released, and the brain gives out alpha waves associatedwith relaxation and meditation. The 800 pounds of salt relaxes the muscletissue and releases muscle tissue pain. We tried this one and while 60 minutesseemed like a long time to lay still with our thoughts, we loved how zen wefelt and by the end of the session, found ourselves wishing we had more time.

Infrared Sauna

By sweating, oneactivates and intensifies the elimination of toxins. You eliminate about seventimes more toxins with an infrared sauna than a traditional sauna. Infraredheat yields additional benefits in a significant way, beyond relaxation.Benefits are detoxification, relaxation, pain relief, weight loss, improvescirculation, reduces inflammation, and provides skin purification.

In addition tothose spa experiences, the Carillon Miami Wellness Resort also has sessions foraccessing your metabolic health and aerobic capacity. This two-part service isrecommended for people who want to change their body composition, increasestamina and fitness, or improve sports performance.
