Department of Parks and Recreation Director Commissioner Mauro G. Tucci has announced that Nutley's Positive Fitness Program is returning for a spring session.  

In the announcement, Tucci touted that the program gets the most results out of the shortest amount of time. Unlike aerobics and machine-based exercises that work muscles in isolation, positive fitness programs employ "total body training," which burns more fat and strengthens muscles with less total workout time.

The sessions offer residence the guidance of a personal trainer with the motivation of a group fitness class. “We offer a variety of fitness classes to help residents achieve their fitness goals. Positive Fitness will be a great addition to our growing list of fitness options” Tucci said in the release.

This program is open to Nutley residents only and will begin on April 1. Over the following six weeks, classes will be held on Monday and Thursdays at the Recreation Annex Building located at 65 Bloomfield Ave. 

The instructor for this program will be Certified Trainer, Joseph Cimo. Participants are to bring a mat, light weights and a water bottle.  Classes will run from 6:00 – 7:00 pm. The fee for this program is $60 per participant.

Online registration is available at www.nutleynj.org or registration forms may be submitted to the Parks and Recreation Office located at 44 Park Ave.
