Keeping Fit at the Waldorf Astoria Naples
If you’re a fitness fanatic you won’t miss a beat when you stay at the Waldorf Astoria Naples.
This spectacular seaside hotel boasts an 8,000 square foot fitness center with a magnificent view
of the coast. The gym provides LifeCycle machines, treadmills, crosstrainers
– all with builtin
LCD screens plus
assorted strength machines and free weights. The Waldorf Astoria Naples’
fitness center also features certified trainers who can help you finetune
your exercise routine.
10. Workout Safety Tips for the Hotel Gym
While you’re working out at the Waldorf Astoria Naples, follow the easy tips below to ensure
your safety:
1. Follow any instructions posted on signage in the hotel gym.
2. Don’t begin any intense exercise regimen without getting the green light from your health
care provider, especially if you are 50 years of age or older.
3. If you have arthritis or muscular tightness, take a long hot shower and do some gentle
stretches while bathing. Or you can use the hot tub, steam room or sauna.
4. Jot down a workout routine ahead of time. Work on one muscle group (such as
torso/upper body or legs and calves) per day, giving your alternate muscle group a chance
to recover.
5. If you have a big belly, stray away from the abs machines and avoid doing crunches.
Strenuous abdominal exercise does little good unless you work your core ab muscles.
Wait until you’ve lost some gut before going crazy on the abdominal exercises.
6. Stretch your lower back, hamstrings, calves and neck before lifting weights or doing
cardiovascular exercises. Stretching elongates your muscles, makes them more flexible
and can prevent injury.
7. If you are just beginning a weightlifting program, start with light weights and lift slowly
and never to the point of complete muscle exhaustion.
8. Rest for a minute or two between sets to reduce your heart rate and to avoid muscle
exhaustion.
9. Drink plenty of water to make sure you are hydrated during your workout.
10. Be considerate of others and wipe down equipment with and weights with a clean cloth
or towel when you’re done with them. It’s also a good idea to wipe the machine or
weights before you use them.
