Paragon are back! Refreshed and raring to go!

If you’ve fallen out of your fitness routine this holiday season, you’re not alone.

The holidays are often a time of indulgence, summer parties, holidays, food and alcohol, we slip in to relax mode and skip our fitness routine. Before we know it, a couple of weeks or more have passed and no exercise! Ahhhh! It can be a challenge to stay on track with diet and exercise over the summer, after all we did work hard to get our bodies bikini ready. But now with the kids back to school and Christmas is on the horizon we have another focus and goal to work towards.

Tonight we return to Chase Meadows Community Centre, Warwick.

Circuits 6-7pm PAYG £5

Zumba 7-8pm PAYG £5

All fitness levels welcome! If you are new to our classes, feel nervous but want to give it a go, don’t worry, we give alternative option to exercises and lower intensity aerobic options in all our classes.

Why not bring along a friend and start your fitness regime with Paragon, together.

We look forward to catching up with you all and welcoming newbies!

What Can Cause High Blood Pressure?

What Can Cause High Blood Pressure?

Every time your heart beats, it pushes blood, nutrients, and oxygen through your arteries to reach the rest of your body. But when you have high blood pressure, it's a sign that your heart is having to work too hard to pump that blood where it needs to go. The result: Damaged arteries, a worn-out heart, and an increased risk of heart disease—which is to blame for the deaths of one in three women every year. Here's what causes high blood pressure, and how you can fight whatever might be throwing your heart into overdrive.

Binge Drinking at Christmas

Binge Drinking at Christmas

Christmas is fast approaching, as too is party season for many places of work, is undoubtedly a time for socialising, relaxing and enjoying ourselves after a hard year’s work. With festive markets and mulled wine stalls springing up in towns and cities up and down the country, the amount of alcohol we consume as a nation at this time of year will inevitably increase.

But it’s important to keep in mind that the effects of alcohol on the body are the same as they are during any other month; and that binge drinking in particular can pose an increased risk to heart health.
