Project Phoenix

The Fire inside me burns brighter than the fire that surrounds me! 

Project Phoenix is a program we developed specifically for those fighting Class II and Class III morbid obesity. This is a FREE program to those who qualify! Each member must present a doctor’s referral and approval for exercise before beginning. This class is limited to 6 qualifying members. This program is more than just exercise! In Project Phoenix, we delve deeply into changing our habits, our mindsets, and our movement!

Our Project Phoenix classes include various forms of movement: cardio, functional training, water exercise, resistance training, and walking. It is a simple truth that a bigger battle requires consistent training and lots of support! Project Phoenix will also include nutritional counseling and food tracking, a Facebook accountability group, weekly weight check-ins, and a Phoenix message pod for community and connection. The Kishwaukee Family YMCA is also looking forward to partnering with specialists and educators in our community to help with our education and to help change the lives of our members who are battling morbid obesity.
