Grice Connect Brandon Robinson's Box of Local Delights

Convenience, convenience, convenience.

It’s probably the most important thing that matters to me these days!

(...Well, besides my mom…and my dad…and my siblings and grandparents…and my friends and family…UGH, THE NEVERENDING LIST!!—Just ETC. ETC. ETC.!!!)

But convenience especially matters to me these days when it comes to WORKING OUT.

gym-delights

And yes, I admit that I don’t work out as much as I should.

(And no; having a high metabolism that gives off the illusion that I work out every single day is no longer an excuse. Especially when my energy levels can say otherwise.)

It’s truly time for a change, folks!

And thank goodness that I live in Statesboro where the fitness options range from amazing local gyms to amazing outdoor spaces. (We have the best of both worlds here when it comes to maintaining an active lifestyle!)

Fitness options here are affordable, convenient, and downright alluring.

So, let’s take a quick tour of the many options we have available for getting “us” (…in other words, “ME”…) back on track towards our fitness goals!

We’ll call it our “GET FIT TOUR FOR WORKAHOLICS!”

Gyms

We have such incredible individuals here in Statesboro who are dedicated to serving the community and promoting an active lifestyle through their various programs and initiatives. Each of these organizations provide a comfortable space for individuals who may be interested in advancing their own personal fitness goals and routines.

So yes. It’s true.

We have no excuse for the continued slacking on our “New Year’s Resolution" FITNESS Goals, which we should have started back in January.

…but APRIL works just as well for those, right?!

Yoga Centers

Back when I was at Emory, completing my undergrad during the mid-2010s, I randomly fell into the practice of Yoga.

(It was Atlanta of course, so I had to stay on trend with the latest workouts and things.)

However, I must say that Yoga provides so many wonderful benefits for the heart, mind, body, and soul. Thankfully, I ended up staying with the practice years after returning back home to Statesboro after graduating.

Fortunately, keeping up with the Yogic practice is now easier than ever for Statesboro locals! We have some wonderful locally-owned Yoga studios, which provide the perfect space for a transcendental yogic experience!

Check them out!

Parks

I LOVE being outside.

And sometimes, I prefer being outside for workouts over being inside. (Especially when the weather is unapologetically perfect.)

Each of these parks provides the perfect outside space for circuit workouts, long distance runs, or leisurely strolls through the public amenities.  

Have a look!
