SARC also offers a cardio room with treadmills, elliptical trainers, cycling machines, stairmasters, and more. Another new feature of the facility is the circuit room, which offers a fun fast-paced workout to music; participants move every 45 seconds through 12 weight training stations, separated by 12 jogging boards.

Strength training principles:

1. Perform one set of 4-6 exercises for the lower body and 6-8 exercises for the upper body and not more than 12 exercises in any workout. Count 2 seconds on the positive (up) phase and 4 seconds on the negative (down) phase.
   
   
2. Select a resistance for each exercise that allows you to do between 8 and 12 repetitions.
   
   
3. Continue each exercise until no additional repetitions are possible. When 12 or more repetitions are performed, increase the resistance by approximately 5% at the next workout.
   
   
4. Work the largest muscles first and move quickly from one exercise to the next. This procedure develops cardiovascular endurance.
   
   
5. Concentrate on flexibility by slowly stretching during the first three repetitions of each exercise.
   
   
6. Accentuate the lowering portion of each repetition.
   
   
7. Move slower, never faster, if in doubt about the speed of movement.
   
   
8. Do everything possible to isolate and work each large muscle group to exhaustion.
   
   
9. Attempt constantly to increase the number of repetitions or the amount of weight or both. Do not sacrifice form to produce results.
   
   
10. Train no more than three times a week.
    
    
11. Keep accurate records - date, resistance, repetitions and overall training time - of each workout.
    
    
12. Vary the workout.
