Starting tomorrow badged airport employees and airline crews are invited to use our gym, located in the D/E Connector of BWI airport, for free for a week. If you don't feel like bringing your gym bag to work no problem! We have complimentary rental workout gear (clothes and shoes) and showers with towel service (reservable for 15-minutes).
We also have a little personal challenge for everyone that participates next week. The individual that checks in and uses the gym the most during the week will win an annual membership! Everyone that visits 3+ times is eligible to purchase an annual membership for $450 until April 1st (starting April 1st annual memberships are $540 for airport and airline employees).
Stop by and try out the new gym at BWI and feel free to call us with any questions, 410.553.4701. We look forward to seeing you soon!
Exercising and flying are two activities that can zap our bodies' water levels and leave us dehydrated. It is can be difficult to know when dehydration is setting in but some early indicators include dry eyes, chapped skin, poor concentration, headaches, dizziness or lightheadedness, and the inability to think clearly.
It is important to replace the fluid lost in-flight and during workouts. When we fly our bodies respond not only to the change in altitude but also to the low moisture levels. Aircraft humidity levels are unnaturally low, between 5-10% which is less humid than the Sahara Desert. Drinking 8 oz of water every hour will help maintain a healthy hydration level in-flight. If you are dehydrated during a workout the most obvious signs will be dry mouth and muscle fatigue. While exercising, a good rule of thumb is to drink 8 oz of water every 20 minutes.
Staying hydrated and drinking plenty of pure water has significant health benefits. It will help maintain your energy levels, fight off colds and infections, improve your concentration and increase your physical performance, and support proper digestion.
ROAM Fitness chose to carry Voss Water in its gyms because of its purity. It comes from an artesian well in Southern Norway that is unfiltered and low in minerals, resulting in a smooth taste. Voss Water shares ROAM's sense of environmental responsibility and maintains 100% carbon neutrality. To celebrate our partnership, we've collaborated with Voss Water to do a giveaway of 10 day passes on their Facebook page. The giveaway is open to residents of the District of Columbia and Maryland who are 21+. To enter tell Voss Water why you would like to workout at the new ROAM Fitness facility at BWI in the comments section of the giveaway post. Voss water will randomly select 10 winners from entries submitted between February 17th noon EST and February 24th noon EST.
We're celebrating the opening of our first location.
Today and tomorrow if you buy one day pass from us, in person or online, you will receive another day pass for free. Passes are valid for one year from the purchase date, so even if you don't have a trip scheduled through BWI in the next couple of weeks you still have plenty of time to use both passes. Don't miss out on this great opportunity to get two workouts in at the airport for just $25 (valued at $80). The extra day pass will be credited to your account within 24 hours.
