The PATH Traveling Interval is a mobile class which combines strength-building catisthenics with jogging and running. Campers jog or run at their own pace for several minutes, gather back together as a goup at the next check point, recover, then perform the next strength-building drill before heading off again. Participants of this program must be able to maintain a jog or run pace for several minutes. Because calisthenics are set between cardio intervals, the pace of this class is more intense than the traditional format.

In the traditional military-style classes, calisthenics and plyometrics are performed in interval fashion: higher intensity drills are followed by drills offering recovery. Team racing and agility drills are performed in the park, followed by cardiovascular training on a scenic, two mile cardio course. Campers exercise at their own pace.

Both classes conclude with stretching and are open to all fitness levels.

The human body, plus a life on earth, usually equals a glitch here and there, unless you are darn lucky (knock on wood). You might have minor muscular or skeletal issues , or occasional soreness in a particular part of the body, perhaps in the low back, knees, shin, ankle, shoulder, wrist, or elbow. I It is important to differentiate between an undiagnosed medical issue that may require a doctor's care and such minor issues. You, the owner, know your body best. It is important to listen to what it tells you. "Occasional" means exactly that. Persistent, nagging or ongoing pain signals you to take the time to seek professional medical advise and care before participating in BURN! Traveling PATH Interval at Candler Park. BURN!

During this BURN! Traveling PATH Interval at Candler Park program, it is important that you communicate with Jaye by phone if you experience soreness or pain. During exercise, it is okay to feel a warming sensation or slight burning in your muscles as they fatigue. That's normal. Pain during exercise is not okay. Normal discomfort is much different from pain. Listen to your body and become familiar with these sensations and their differences. If you experience pain during class, you should stop exercising and notify Jaye. She can take a brief sidebar and make recommendations to you. Occasional, minor muscle soreness that lasts a day or two is a common byproduct of exercise. Frequent, intense muscle soreness means you've overdone it.
