Shriver heading up Kids America ’ s fitness classes
By Marianne Austin
From as early as 5 a . m . to 7:30 p . m . Monday through Sunday at Kids America ’ s new fitness center , there are plenty of opportunities to come and work out , said Stacey Shriver , director of KA Fitness . Clients range from junior high and high school to senior citizens . Shriver has been a certified fitness instructor for more than five years , formerly at Premiere Fitness on Main Street and a physical therapist for 25 years at Three Rivers Therapy .
“ We have nine instructors ; some of them are from Premiere Fitness ,” Shriver said . “ It ’ s for everyone , whatever your fitness level is . We use MyZone Fitness . It shows the intensity they are working at . They can see how their heart rate recovers , and it ’ s a good detector of fitness level . It ’ s good heart health . Membership here at Kids America is not expensive . It ’ s a great opportunity .”
Shriver said MyZone is a belt you wear across your upper body to maximize your workout . MyZone is a wearable heart-rate-based system that uses wireless technology to monitor physical activity . It is successful due to its accuracy at 99.4 %. You can monitor yourself by watching a screen or from your phone while you exercise .
KA Fitness provides a personalized approach to health and wellness for all ages . It ’ s for everyone , whatever

The MyZone screen shows each person ’ s information in a square that shows their intensity level . If your square is red , you are working at your maximum . If your square shows yellow , you try to catch up to the red .
Space is limited to 12 people per session , and people can book a time up to 15 minutes before the class .
“ Sometimes , if a lot of people want to be in a class , we can always use the gym for proper space ,” Shriver said . “ People are at all different levels , but we can still work out together .”

Tammy Pope has been working out with Shriver for three years .
“ It ’ s fabulous ,” Pope said . “ I ’ m over 50 , and she pushes me . We do sit-ups and crunches for our lower abs . They show you an easier way to do things . Everybody helps each other . It ’ s fun , fun , fun . I love it . It makes you accountable .”
“ It definitely holds you accountable ,” said Mindy Cooper , who has been working out with Shriver for five years . “ As far as goals , we do monthly challenges . MyZone belt is amazing . You can watch your zone on the screen or on your phone . It shows your calories , your effort percentage , your peak heart rate at the time . I don ’ t like to work out without it . When I heard about the belt , I asked Stacie what it was , and I said , ‘ Man , I ’ m in on that .’”
