A show of strength

Greg Russo begins his class with the following instructions: 100 jumping jacks, 50 mountain climbers, 25 push-ups and 10 squat/push-up combinations ? and that?s just the warm-up.

Participants bear-crawl, broad-jump and squat their way through the hour long boot camp class ? a new offering through the Madison School & Community Recreation program and an example of the intense direction many of the program?s adult fitness courses started taking this fall.
