6 Reasons Why Going On Vacation Is Good For Your Health

March 26, 2019/ Margot Rutigliano

Going on vacation always seems like the solution to many problems. We dream of taking a trip. Often times though, we tell ourselves that we just don’t have enough time to go on vacation. There is too much to do at home or at work. Yet, many of us are consistently stressed out, frustrated by long hours or life’s craziness. According to a survey, the average U.S. employee takes only half of their allotted vacation time. It’s not surprising that people are suffering from being overworked, overwhelmed and overrun.

Train For Your Game: Golf Fitness

March 25, 2019/ Margot Rutigliano

Almost every golfer I’ve ever spoken to talks about how hard the game is. Usually, they’re mentioning wanting to improve their score. This conversation is a common thread running from the professional golfer down to the amateur or beginner golfer.

It’s a tough sport. It’s mentally and physically taxing. The interesting thing is that so many people don’t consider the game of golf to be an athletic sport. It’s seen more as a leisure sport requiring technical skill (which it does) rather than a sport requiring a good amount of exertion. Tiger Woods was one of the first to really take the fitness side seriously and in turn, many other professional golfers started taking notice. In the last few years, with the rise of younger golfers like Dustin Johnson, Ricky Fowler and Jordan Speith, there has been a little more attention to fitness and the need for sport specific training.

Vita Boot Camp Recap: Topics, Thoughts and Inspiration

March 25, 2019/ Margot Rutigliano

It occurred to me during last week’s Vita Boot Camp that it might be a good idea for me to recap some of the weeks. We have great discussions during each week and some of those discussions pack information that everyone would want to have – even if you’re not at a retreat. So while I won’t give away every single thing we talk about (you’ll have to attend a retreat to get ALL of the juicy info), I thought that recapping each week with the most important topics and inspiration would benefit many of you. So here goes writing my first retreat recap – hope you enjoy!

Where We Workout

March 23, 2019/ Margot Rutigliano

We are located in picturesque Delray Beach, Florida, a charming seaside town nestled in between Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale. It provides beautiful parks and beaches for our outdoor workouts. One of our mottos is “Get out of the gym and into the outdoors”! We love getting our sweat on outside in the fresh air. Is there anything better than a workout with ocean views, sounds of the waves or watching boats drive by?

If you’re considering coming to one of our fitness retreats, you’re probably wondering where exactly we hold our workouts. It’s one of the biggest questions that we get before people sign up.
