Younkin and Gaddy will lead the advanced level workouts with exercises based on physical training in the military.

LORAIN A local fitness instructor wants Lorainites to get in shape on the shores of the Black River.

Faithfully Fit Group Fitness Center and the Lorain Port Authority have joined to create Get Fit Lorain! an outdoor fitness camp that will take place Saturday mornings at the south end of the Black River Landing. The program will begin 8 a.m. Aug. 4 and continue Saturdays into September or October, as long as the weather is nice.

Hopefully, this will be the first program of many, said Kristie Duffy, who operates Faithfully Fit at 610 Broadway. And hopefully we can utilize the outdoors and come together because its so much more fun when youre working out together.

It is a nice fit for the Lorain Port Authority because its board has wanted to incorporate physical fitness at the Black River Landing, said Ralph Bruening, facilities manager and special events coordinator for the port.

The site also is a beautiful site for a Saturday morning workout, he said.

Weve got eight acres, Bruening said. You can put a lot of people in eight acres.

The programs will offer three levels of training with beginner and intermediate workouts, led by Duffy and Norene Bohannon, who has an associates degree in sports fitness management from Lorain County Community College. They will guide participants in aerobics and walking around the site.
