Planet Fitness is planning to open a Woodstock location in the former Office Depot building.

Planet Fitness currently is completing cosmetic and signage work, and has yet to move in its gym equipment. An opening date hasnt been made public, Woodstock Economic Development Director Garrett Anderson said.

Ive seen the billboards going up, and they just say coming soon, Anderson said. They dont have a firm open date yet.

The location will be in the Eastwood Shopping Center at 414 S. Eastwood Drive. Office Depot closed in 2015, and the building has been vacant since that time.

Founded in 1992 in New Hampshire, Planet Fitness operates almost 2,000 clubs. Planet Fitness in Woodstock will be the third in McHenry County. Planet Fitness also has locations in Crystal Lake and McHenry.

Standard memberships to Planet Fitness are $10 a month. An upgraded $22.99 membership allows patrons to work out at any Planet Fitness location and use services such as massage chairs and tanning equipment, according to its website.

Chris Hemsworth Just Worked Out in the ‘World’s Smallest Gym’ – menshealth.com

You don't get a body like Chris Hemsworth's without putting in the work, and the he makes no excuses when it comes to finding the time and effort for his fitness. "Calculate how many minutes of the day you spend scrolling on your phone at useless feeds," he told Men's Health earlier this year. "Hours, right? So you cant find 20 minutes a day? If you cant find that 20 minutes, you have no one to blame but yourself."

And that philosophy applies even when the equipment around you isn't exactly what you're used to as one of the most jacked superhero stars on the planet. The Australian actor just live-streamed his workout on his Instagram Story, demonstrating a series of moves from his fitness and wellness app, Centr.

"We're in Tokyo, in I think it's the world's smallest gym," he said. "But we make use of what we've got."

"Grow! Grow! Grow!" He chanted to his biceps while doing a set on the arm pull machine, before switching to pushups, then working his core with a series of medicine ball exercises.

"Realistically, theres a very low chance any of us will achieve the same body as Thor or any beefcake movie superhero, but there are small changes you can make in your life to be more like him," writes Esquire's Jamie Carson, who ate and trained like Hemsworth for a week, basing his regime on how the movie prepared for his role in the Thor and Marvel movies. "You dont need a superpower. Just the willpower," he added. "And chicken. Lots and lots of chicken."

5 rounds for time

Most swimming pools are25 mlong,competitive pools are 50 m long. 200m should be 4 rounds front and back in the pool. It is good to have some sort of a mat under yourself while doing the sit ups since the bank is not as smooth as a regular gym floor and you cant wear as many clothes to protect your skin. The mat is helpful for the burpees too.

10 rounds for time

Swim one round, front and back. Get up from the pool is asimilar technique to the muscle up. Get up 10 times and jump back into the pool, it gets straining quick. Try using your arms more before putting the leg on the bank.

The duck walkis often forgotten. Go down to a deep squat position and keep your knees to the outside. Walk by the pool to the other side in that position without lifting your behind over the knees.

Boot strapperis a really fun workout that kills your legs. Again go to a deep squat, put your knuckles on the floor and keep them there the whole time. Straighten your legs with your back as straight as you can. Keep bending and straightening your legs for 40 reps.

Heel touchesare a good core workout. Lie on your back, bend the knees and keep the feet together. Lift your shoulder blades from the ground and sway side to side to touch each heel.

Monomoy Girl back in training with ‘good bottom’ of fitness – Horse Racing Nation

Photo: Bee Buck Photography

Crow -- a manager for the partnership consisting of Monomoy Stables, Michael Dubb, the Elkstone Group, and Bethlehem Stables -- said Monomoy Girl has been cleared for jogging and light tack work at Paul Sharp's Williston, Fla., Farm, where she was broken and did her initial pre-training.

The daughter of Tapizar has not returned to the starting gate since her victory in the 2018 Breeders' Cup Distaff at Churchill Downs. She missed time the first half of this year due to colic before a muscle strain prevented a 4-year-old comeback later in the season.

Shes doing very well. Shes happy down here, Crow said. So far, no issues. She had pulled a hamstring. Dr. Wes Sutter been the one in charge of her recovery. He has looked at her multiple times and gave us the go-ahead to put her back in training.

Crow said Monomoy Girl should continue her work at the farm until January.

As far as race targets, "Really, you're just kind of shooting in the dark

Monomoy Girl shows a record of 9-for-11. She has been beaten across the wire just once, as a 2-year-old in Churchill Downs' Golden Rod (G2). At 3, she nearly went undefeated, suffering a loss only when placed second in Parx's Cotillion (G1) for veering in the stretch.

Major targets as an older filly were put on hold in April but suffered no longterm effects due to her colic episode.

Monomoy Girl took time to recover and returned to breezing in the fall.

And then she pulled a muscle in her hamstring her last breeze before running," Crow said, as one prep was planned before a defense of the Distaff, "so we were very close to getting her back into the starting gate. Obviously with a muscle strain you have to go easy with them and give them plenty of time to get over it on their own.

Crow posted a video Thursday of Monomoy Girl taking a roll at the farm, adding that,Everyone on her team is very happy with how she looks right now.
