Sandy Golding Sandy Golding has been a member of Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club off and on since just after GATC first opened 21 years ago! What keeps bringing her back? Her love of swimming and she says she’ll ‘never leave again’. Sandy is a competitive swimmer and trains with GATC’s Masters Swimming program. She began competing with her first Masters swim meet 20 years ago right here in our indoor pool. She was scared, cried and was unsure how to race, but quickly overcame that fear. Sandy has since attended the Masters National Swim meet eight times, most recently this past May in Austin, Texas where she joined other GATC staff, coaches and swimmers in helping Colorado Masters Swimming win the National Championship title. When she’s not in the water, Sandy is a pharmacist at Homestead Animal Hospital, as well as working at Dr. Charles Fischer’s Dental Office as the bookkeeper. Sandy thanks her husband, Keith, an engineer at Lockheed Martin, without whom she couldn’t manage to keep training and enjoying her love of the water. “It’s what I do for me”, Sandy says. She is very proud of her three kids: Miles 12, Troy 11 and Aspen 10, but swimming is a passion for Sandy and she will continue to make sacrifices to train, to make the trips and to get the family taken care of. “It gets sweeter as I get older and the outdoor pool just makes it that much sweeter.” The relationships she’s established over the last 20 years at GATC are priceless. Her morning locker room friends don’t all swim with her, but they create a wonderful feeling of belonging as they inquire about her races and meets. Sandy strives to “live each day to the fullest because you never know what tomorrow may bring”. She also realizes that as time moves on, Personal Best’s are less and less likely. “Every year is a new year of competition. PR’s at this age are rare, so it’s just a matter of performing well each season.” Sandy says, “As a competitive adult I hope to continue into my 80’s!” Greenwood Athletic and Tennis club will strive to keep up with Sandy and still be here at 80! 3 P-Note MAKING THE BEST PART OF YOUR DAY…EVEN BETTER Why do you choose Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club as your place for fitness? What makes GATC special? Each May we conduct an annual survey asking these questions and more. We want to know what we do well, what we need to improve upon and what we need to change or add to make Greenwood better. Our goal is to achieve success by satisfying our members and guests and help them achieve their desired level of fitness and beyond. The one true way we can continue to improve is to ask the question and listen to your responses… Some of the capital improvements you are seeing now are a result of the 2007 Member Survey. For instance, according to survey results, 85% of our members utilize the weight room. The weight room expansion will increase the size of the space and the weight room remodel will improve the overall layout therefore allowing more room for stretching and functional training; two other suggestions formulated from the survey. In August the indoor pool will be completely renovated with a new deck, new Diamond Bright pool surface, and replacement of the tiles with blue and white tile in the pool, in the gutters, on the deck and on the walls. We will also install new lane ropes. This renovation came as a result of the increased usage in both lap pools. Since the installation of the year-round outdoor 25 meter lap pool, the swimming membership at GATC has increased substantially. The Tiger Sharks youth swim team has increased in size. The Masters program • Minor Illness and Injury Care • Labs • EKG • Workers’ Compensation • IV Hydration and Medication • Respiratory Care with Nebulization Treatments • Sports Physicals • Flu Shots • X-Ray Shorter wait time and lower costs compared to the ER! 3601 S. Clarkson St. Ste. 100 (Clarkson and Hampden, a block south of Swedish) 1-877-889-1522 www.RockyMountainUrgentCare.com No appointment necessary Most insurance accepted Mon-Fri 8am-8pm Sat & Sun 8am-4pm 4 is growing and so are aquatic programs and lessons. The Multi-Sport programs are flourishing with an increase in the amount of triathletes at GATC. We have also added the pool float during recreational hours in the outdoor pool for summertime fun! On average Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club has spent $1.6 million annually on capital improvements over the last four years. This compares to an industry standard of $300,000 annually. We are not only proud of this statistic, but it shows that we are dedicated to providing our members with the best facilities and equipment available. We understand the necessary improvements needed to keep our club in the best shape possible, but one other thing stood out in the annual survey…the appreciation you as members have in the staff at Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club. Our goal is to provide you with the highest level of service possible. One year ago this October we launched a company-wide service training program for all 210 staff members. The program goal was to emphasize the importance of providing world class service to our members and to treat our members and guests with the highest level of respect. The training highlighted our core values; passion, integrity, teamwork, stewardship and continuous improvement and has been a stepping stone for further staff development. The 2008 Member Survey will be launched in the fall this year so we can capture your comments relative to the expansion and capital improvements completed in 2008. Again, we look forward to hearing “the good, the bad and the ugly” so we can work hard to make Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club the Best Part of Your Day! Our mission…Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club sets industry standards as a leading model for club management with fiscally sound and consistent business practices, premier health and fitness facilities, exceptional programs and services and professional staff who focus on members first. MEMBER ADVISORY COMMITTEE ALUMNI Thank you to Dianne Metcalf-Leoni, Ashley Poole, Harold Roberts and Louisa Schaffer for their two years of service on the Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club Member Advisory Committee (MAC). This group of individuals along with current and alumni members has contributed countless hours in hopes of making GATC a better place for their fellow members. MAC has assisted the Management Team at GATC with various projects including capital decisions, communication, and marketing and sales efforts. Thank you to all of our Member Advisory Committee members (past and present) for helping make Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club “The Best Part of Your Day”!

DEXA, the same equipment used in hospitals, provides a three-component model: lean tissue, body fat and bone mass. DATE: LOCATION: COST: Learn about your overall health through blood screenings. Six tests are available including the new VAP test which is an expanded cholesterol test that will increase your doctor’s ability to detect your risk of heart disease. Other tests will measure blood sugar levels, mineral levels, diabetes risks and even prostate concerns for men. (10-12 hour FAST is advised) DATES: Wednesday, July 2, 6:30-8:30am Wednesday, August 6, 6:30-8:30am Wednesday, September 3, 6:30-8:30am $53 Regular Blood Work (chem. screen, TSH, lipid profile) $30 CBC (complete blood count) $57 PSA (prostate screening) $60 Hgb A1C (diabetes screening) $72 Cardio CRP (cardio risk marker) $145 VAP (expanded cholesterol test – includes regular blood work) COST: Monday, September 15 Mobile lab at GATC $119 for single test $149 for both tests “Recently I had my bone density tested at Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club. I was quite shocked to learn that I had osteopenia, weakened bones. Being in my 50s, I was well aware that aging and lifestyle can put one at risk of osteoporosis. The aging I could not help. The lifestyle I live includes healthy eating habits and an active lifestyle, but I have found that even people like me can still wind up with osteopenia or osteoporosis. If I had not taken this simple test, which provided me with instant results, I may not have discovered my condition until a bone fracture occurred. I faxed the test results I received from Life Measure Labs over to my doctor and he immediately put me on medication in order to help reverse bone loss. All of your members who stay strong through exercise and live a healthy lifestyle can still be gradually losing bone mass and never see it happening. More than 44 million Americans 50 and older have weakened bones. I never dreamed that I was one of them. My advice, take the test! This is one condition that can be reversed, but you have to know about it first. Thank you for offering such a great program to Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club members.” Sincerely, Denise Donaldson RESTING METABOLIC RATE TESTING Life Measure Labs will be performing Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) testing at GATC. Your RMR tells you how many calories your body needs just to maintain your muscles and internal organs. When you add daily activity and lifestyle, along with exercise, you can determine your daily caloric needs. Learn how much you need to eat to lose, gain or just maintain your weight. DATE: LOCATION: COST: BLOOD SCREENING Monday, September 15 Mobile Lab at GATC $99 POOL PASS PACKS ARE BACK Let your children invite their friends to the pool this summer. Discounted children’s (ages 8 and younger) guest passes for pool use only are again available for purchase. For $75 you’ll receive 10 passes, each good for a day of swimming. This is a 25% savings off the regular youth price, great for nonfamily friends.

See you at the pool! THE LOCKER ROOMS HAVE HAD A FACELIFT You, too, can have your own personal locker to store those items you use every visit or to just take advantage of the laundry service.

ADULT DROP IN BASKETBALL This program is provided free of charge to GATC members. Please show up at the appropriate time and be ready to play and have fun! DAYS/TIMES: Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, 11:15am-1:15pm Tuesdays & Thursdays, 6:00-7:30am Saturday, 8:00-11:00am Sunday, 7:30-9:30am Visit our website www.GreenwoodATC.com 5 Pilates Sara Talbert Director of Pilates 303.770.2582 x375 [email protected] THE BEST KEPT SECRET AT GREENWOOD…PILATES We all know that exercise is good for us. The exercise regimen choices out there are endless and it’s tempting to jump on the latest craze or biggest bandwagon. Just as fanny packs, parachute pants and mullets have come and gone (or at least should be gone) you have to wonder if the trends we read about will also disappear. Pilates has gone from unknown to trendy to standard. The reason for its staying power is its effectiveness and the fact that people enjoy it! It is such a great technique and is so versatile, helping make every other activity in your life better, whether you’re sitting at your computer, running a marathon, cycling up Mt. Evans or mogul skiing. If you have not tried Pilates at Greenwood, you are missing out! Our Pilates facility is top notch and more importantly, our instructors are truly impressive. As the Director of the program, I have made it my personal mission to have all of our members give Pilates a try and sample what our instructors have to offer. It is wonderful to be able to affect a change in someone who doesn’t know their body well and discover together, the wonders of what they can do and how they can move. Learning that a client has awakened for the first time in three years without pain, keeps us going. We, in the Greenwood Pilates Studio, have made it our goal to show you how we can personalize Pilates for specialized populations from Baby Boomers to breast cancer survivors. We want to show seniors how to improve their posture and increase their self confidence. We want to protect golfers’ spines by training them to not get caught up in their swing and instead focus on how the body moves the club. Resist the temptation to follow a program that promises a six-pack in six days. There is staying power behind Pilates, with its lowimpact approach and focus on strength, flexibility and balance. Pilates can help individuals of all ages and fitness levels improve their health and well being. Our mission as Pilates Instructors is to make a difference one person at a time. To learn more about our upcoming programs, visit us on-line at www.GreenwoodATC.com or stop by the Pilates Studio for more information.

I was eating dinner with my family at a local restaurant the other night. Trying to get my healthy greens in that day, I ordered double veggies rather than a potato. My order sparked an interesting conversation between my family and our waitress. She began to share her diet and exercise experience, which consisted of her boyfriend making her run with him every day at his gym. Our waitress went on for quite some time, telling us how much she hates to run, how it hurts, how she dreads it all day long, but how her boyfriend has told her it’s the only way to get fit. She walked away to help another table, and when she returned, I whispered to her, “honey, if you don’t like to run…don’t do it.” It’s amazing that we force ourselves to do things that we do not enjoy because we believe they are the only means to the success we are trying to achieve. We think that healthy food has to taste terrible and we think that in order to have the healthy bodies we desire we have to participate in activities that make us miserable. When we apply this viewpoint towards diet and exercise, we stack the cards against ourselves. It is very difficult to succeed when the element of dread replaces the element of fun. When it comes to becoming and staying fit, the key is to know what you enjoy and what makes you happy (besides sitting on the couch eating potato chips), and find modes of exercise that fall within that category. If you enjoy outdoor workouts but can’t find time to make it to the mountains, join Boot or Booty Camp for a workout that will get you down and dirty. If you’re a swimmer, give water aerobics a try (it IS possible to sweat in the water, just ask the Tiger Sharks!). If you enjoy dancing but your life won’t allow you to hit the clubs, give Les Mills’ BodyJam® a try (coming this fall), the cardio workout where you will sweat and smile as you are free to enjoy the sensation of dance.

Greenwood Dental’s approach is to focus on you and improve your quality of life through comprehensive dental care and treatment. Scott Baughman is coming up on his one year anniversary here at Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club. After injuring his calf in October of 2007, Scott asked the Physical Therapists at Physiotherapy Associates (located at GATC) how he might continue doing cardio despite his injury. They told him to ride, either a stationary bike by himself or participate in a Spinning® class with 54 of his closest friends. Needless to say, Scott lasted 30 minutes on the stationary bike in the seclusion of his iPod, but has lasted close to 10 months and lost 57 pounds with the help of the Spin room. He found something he enjoyed, stuck with it, has seen results and established a lifestyle that continues his success. We have more than 115 complimentary group exercise classes here at Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club for you to choose from. A variety of formats, programs, instructors and musical selections designed to give you choices that contribute to the success of your health. Find something you like…and just do it!

Cost is $35 per participantmembers only. SHAKE THAT THING! Events include: The fitness industry is chock full of trendy fads to make you “fitter faster”. Everything from the ThighMaster to the Six Minute Ab videos promise great results with little effort. This is the furthest thing from the truth! Effort = results should always be the simple way to look at fitness. There have been advances in fitness technology that are scientific and proven methods for increasing fitness and health in the last two decades (i.e. cam technology in weight machines, advanced pulley cable systems, converging machine axis in strength equipment, etc.). The latest of these innovations is vibration training! Although this might conjure up images of a belt that shakes the fat off you like in the 1920’s, this is a scientific and medically tested instrument that has several applications in health and fitness. The concept is fairly simple, a platform that vibrates at a frequency when you stand or exercise on it that makes your muscles contract at a faster rate than you could do by exercising with resistance. This does not mean it replaces weight training, but is a great enhancement for that training method. The benefits of vibration training are numerous and have been studied greatly dating back to the early 1960’s. Initially vibration training was used to increase bone density in cosmonauts that had spent several months aboard the Russian space labs in the 1960’s. In zero gravity, the body quickly loses bone density. In order to counteract and prevent long term damage, the Russians developed vibration training based on a simple physics equation: Force=Mass x Acceleration. In simple terms, the faster you move your mass (in this case your own body weight) the more force you create. The more force you create in your body the more stress is put on the skeletal system, which then has to compensate by producing new bone growth to increase bone density and prevent injury. What the Russians noticed was not only did this method of training prevent osteoporosis in their cosmonauts; it actually reversed the bone loss! Since then, the technology has been modified and extrapolated into a usable tool for the fitness industry. Most of the benefits have been noticed in the following areas: • Increases bone density to reverse osteoporosis without danger of impact and fracture • Increases joint mobility • Increases muscular flexibility • Increases muscle mass • Improves core strength, stability and balance • Facilitates blood circulation • Decreases recovery time after workouts • Quickly prepares the body for exercise • Clients experience high muscle activity with less fatigue In short, it is hard to argue with results and this device definitely gets results with most clients.

I always stress the importance of changing your workouts and trying something new. I’m continuing the quest to try new things. After my last article which focused on personal training, I was approached (more like challenged) by one of our swim instructors to take a swim lesson. Never backing down from a challenge, I accepted. I already knew how to swim, but apparently I was not swimming correctly. She showed me many different exercises to do in the pool, but most important, she taught me proper breathing technique. As you may or may not know, I am also a group exercise instructor and feel that I am in reasonably good cardiovascular shape, but swimming humbled me. I was sore in places I did not know could be sore. Swimming is the change my body needed. I have not been able to get in the pool as much as I would like, but I absolutely intend to add swimming to my workout routine, even if it is only one day a week (hopefully more). If you’re looking for a change as well as a challenge, I highly recommend swimming and would also recommend taking lessons.

It’s also one of the bigger areas of complaints that we hear about from players this time of year. The problem is, that very few players understand how to execute a proper warm up and very few tournaments enforce the warm up policy that they have created, unless there is an on site referee. The first step in beginning a good warm up procedure is to understand that what you are doing is not practice, it’s a pre-match warm up. In a warm up, you are generally allotted 10-15 minutes to develop a rhythm and feel for each of the strokes you’ll be using throughout your match. This includes groundstrokes, volleys, overheads and serves. In a practice, you have much more time to devote to one area of interest and perhaps other things as well, depending on your schedule. The big difference will be in your mental focus for each. Unfortunately, space doesn’t allow for me to go into all of the mental aspects of a warm up. My focus here will be to help you develop a more effective routine and improve time management. My first bit of advice is to take care of as many things as possible off the court prior to going on to the court. Activities such as re-gripping your racquet, filling your water bottle, getting a towel ready, changing your shoes and of course the big time saver - go to the bathroom! These things all add up and are often responsible for players arriving to their assigned courts 10-15 minutes late. Before any balls are hit, a racquet should be spun to determine the serve and side. If the sun will be a factor during your match, I recommend knowing your preferred side before walking on to the court and standing on this side of the net. It is common for a player to not plan this out very well and if you win the racquet spin you may be able to have both the serve and your preferred side because your opponent is likely to choose the side they’re on rather than take the time to switch sides. As you can see, the racquet spin also determines the side that you warm up on. Usually the warm up should begin with groundstrokes. Hitting service line to service line (mini tennis) with abbreviated strokes is a good way to ease in to your shots. After a minute or two, you should move back and progress in to full swings. Groundstrokes are usually exchanged for 5 or 6 minutes, then volleys by both players for a combined 2-3 minutes including overheads. Serves are then exchanged back and forth between players for the final 2 minutes. Return of serve is usually not part of the warm up unless one player has finished warming up and the other player needs to hit a few more serves. It’s perfectly acceptable to hit returns in this case, but in most other instances it’s considered improper etiquette. Throughout the warm up, your shots should be aimed directly to your opponent for consistency and longer rallies. I recommend aiming all of your shots for extra depth since most players have a natural tendency to hit shorter during the match. When warming up your serve, try to 14 direct a few balls to each of the corners and be sure to hit all of the various spins that you plan to use. If you are feeling some nerves, one of the best ways to ease tension is to become more active with your feet and don’t worry about working up a sweat. This will go a long way towards developing feel and getting you more mentally into the match and off to a fast start. Learning a solid warm up ritual is an important element of player development. Once you find a routine that works for you it will go a long way toward more consistent results. I hope these tips help and I look forward to seeing you on the courts!

Osteoporosis (porous bones) is a common disease that weakens bones and affects about eight million women and two million men and causes more than 1.5 million fractures yearly in the U.S. Osteoporosis can be prevented and treated. What are osteoporosis symptoms? Osteoporosis often progresses without symptoms or pain. Usually, a doctor will diagnose osteoporosis after a fracture occurs. That fracture is usually in the back or hips and can be painful, debilitating and disfiguring, and can result in loss of mobility and independence. What is my risk for osteoporosis? Family history: Osteoporosis seems to run in families. If your mother had a hip fracture or spinal collapse fracture, chances are you are at risk for osteoporosis. Sex: Women are four times more likely than men to get osteoporosis but men are not immune. Age: Women over the age of 50 have the greatest risk of developing osteoporosis, but anyone of any age can have it. Bone structure and body weight. Petite and thin women have a greater risk of developing osteoporosis. Weight loss after age 50 in women also seems to increase the risk of hip fractures. Smallboned, thin men have a greater risk than men with larger frames and more body weight. Medications: Some medications may increase your risk of osteoporosis. These include long-term use of steroids (prednisone), thyroid medication, anticonvulsants and other medications. How can I prevent osteoporosis? Increase calcium in your diet. Getting enough calcium throughout your life helps to keep bones strong. Experts recommend 1,000 milligrams each day for men premenopausal women and 1,500 milligrams a day for postmenopausal women. Exercise. Exercise makes bones and muscles stronger and helps prevent bone loss. It also helps you stay active and mobile. Weight-bearing exercises such as walking, jogging, playing tennis and aerobics are excellent for preventing osteoporosis. Strength training and/or using the Itonic vibration plate will help build stronger muscles and bones. Balance training will help you avoid falls which will decrease your chances of breaking a bone. How is osteoporosis detected? A Bone Mineral Density test (BMD) is the only way to diagnose osteoporosis and determine your risk for future fracture. Since osteoporosis can develop undetected for decades until a fracture occurs, early diagnosis is important. How is osteoporosis treated? Many osteoporosis treatments, including lifestyle choices and medications are successful in stopping bone loss, reducing your risk of fractures. 17 Club Directory & Hours HOURS OF OPERATION Athletic Club 303-770-2582 HOURS OF OPERATION ink!
