Running is one of the best all-around exercises, providing major benefits to your heart, lungs, bone strength and psychological well being. Los Angeles, CA offers an endless list of running destinations and lucky for us, our West Hollywood location sits just over 5 miles from the iconic Hollywood Hills. From beginner to advance, runners can choose between flat running surfaces around the reservoir or take the hills for a more challenging incline. So if you're in the LA area, take a break from the usual hustle of the city and experience a much different side of LA . Oh and don't forget to enjoy the best part, the view!

WINTERIZE YOUR WORKOUT

Winter is officially here which means it's time to get outdoors and head to the mountains!
It's pretty rare to find an all day workout that feels nothing like exercise, but snowboarding is one such activity that provides incredible aerobic and anaerobic training from the fresh morning powder to the last burning run.

AEROBIC
Aerobic exercise increases your heart and respiratory rates which help your body burn calories that have been stored as fat. The constant movement in snowboarding (carving, plowing through powder, strapping in, strapping out, and even the occasional spills) increases endurance of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, and depending on terrain difficulty, the average boarder can burn anywhere from 250 to 630 calories per hour! 

ANAEROBIC
Anaerobic exercise focuses on the strengthening and developing of muscles. They are strenuous but don't typically raise your heart and respiratory rate.
Snowboarding is a fantastic anaerobic workout hitting nearly all of the muscles in your body from the abs, hamstrings and calves all the way down to the feet and ankles.

Final consensus? Skip the gym. Hit the slopes.
