Hey There Muscles - Lean Fitness by Ferrigno Fit

Lou Ferrigno gives a pep talk during Hey There Muscles - Lean Fitness by Ferrigno Fit at the Santa Monica Pier on Saturday, July 12, 2014. 

The Santa Monica Pier and the Ferrigno family fitness dynasty have teamed up to present a free six-week wellness program on the Pier every Saturday from July 12-August 16. The series, called Hey There Muscles - Lean Fitness by Ferrigno Fit, offers a complete overhaul of mind, body and spirit with classes focused on creating lean muscle and healthy living and eating habits. Classes will be led by acclaimed actor and body builder, Lou Ferrigno, his daughter and business partner, Shanna Ferrigno and the extended family, as well as local experts. 

Following the overwhelming success of the Santa Monica Pier Paddleboard Race & Ocean Festival and weekly ROGA (free running + yoga classes), Santa Monica locals demanded another unique fitness program on the Pier, and the Hulk and his family delivered. Hey There Muscles was designed by the Ferrigno family and their team of dietitians and workout gurus to be a 360-health experience from mind to muscle.

The 9 a.m. classes are a free way to shake off a Friday night and discover muscles that have been hiding, perhaps for years. Each week features a different acclaimed FerrignoFIT instructor in a judgment-free environment for all levels. The series is based off the full 12-week Incredibly Fit by FerrignoFIT program, which is a comprehensive fitness program that offers personalized meal plans, workouts, recipes, lifestyle tips and more. 

Class Schedule

July 12 - Start with Determination - Lou Ferrigno and NASM certified personal trainer and Yogaworks yogi, Mike Dunlavy
July 19 - Habits for Longevity - Lou's wife and author, Carla Ferrigno and Equinox instructors, the Double Time Twins
July 26 - Stop Self Sabotage - FerrignoFIT CEO, Shanna Ferrigno and Nike Master Trainer, Joselynne Boschen 
August 2 - Importance of Food - Hilary Perez and Chris Minnes
August 9 - Exercise by Body Type - Kim Ward and Karen Jashinsky
August 16 - Building Your Fitness Family - The whole Ferrigno family

With the sound of the ocean as a backdrop, the West End of the Pier will come alive with interval bodyweight exercises, including stretching, resistance training, weights and kickboxing and nutrition and motivational pep-talks - the smarter way to get fit.

Lou Ferrigno has truly come full circle since arriving in the West Coast in 1976, when he spent a shaky week staying under the iconic Pier before getting signed and launching his fitness career. Since then, Lou has committed to a lean and healthy lifestyle, and passed on these ideals to his children, which has led to the first major father-daughter fitness team.
