The Interval Training program was held at the Student's Dormitory Sports Hall on Tuesday, November 3. Training included aerobics, Tai-Bo, step and fitness sections and lasted one and a half hours. Over 150 participants took part. Ahsen Küçükdurmaz from the Physical Education and Sports Center organized the event.
The gym was divided into four sections: weight and abs training; step and aerobics; stationary bicycles and rowing machines, which were introduced this year. Participants were divided into four groups and took turns doing each activity for three minutes. A special Tai-Bo session was held in the last thirty minutes, followed by stretching exercises. Activities included a surprise exercise called Kolbastý.The fun-filled hour and a half ended with participants giving themselves a round of applause before picking up their rewards: fruit and a Bilkent T-shirt.
The program is only held once a semester. Until next time, you may want to consider taking one of the many aerobics and fitness courses offered at Bilkent sports facilities. For more information please call ext. 1993 and 1325. |
