The third week of August is National Friendship Week and Prairie Life Fitness wants you to spend time with your friends in a fun and healthy way. With so many options for activities to do with friends, it can be hard to choose. We have decided to put together a short list of ideas of things you can do to spend time with your friends, without giving up your active, healthy lifestyle. And the best part? If you refer a friend and they sign up for a membership, you will receive a $25 credit to your account.

Go to a fitness class together

Whether you and your best friend love yoga or would rather dance off some calories in a Zumba class, Prairie Life Fitness offers a variety of different fitness classes that provide challenging and engaging workouts for every level. Check out your local club’s website to find a class schedule.

Lounge by the pool

Already did your morning workout? Spend your afternoon relaxing at the pool with your friends and family. It’s a great way to catch up with a friend without having to leave the kids at home. They can play, and you can take a break.

Relax with a massage, then grab dinner

If you and your friend are wanting to relax, Prairie Life Fitness offers professional massage therapy services. Schedule an appointment, get a massage and then head to grab dinner or drinks. You will both feel more relaxed as you catch up over a meal.

Join a racquetball team

Many of our facilities offer racquetball leagues, lessons and tournaments for every age and skill level. Get some of your friends together to create a team and ask a Prairie Life Fitness employee how to get started.

No matter how you choose to spend time with your friends, there are many ways to encourage each other to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Come to your local Prairie Life Fitness, refer a friend and celebrate National Friendship Week.
