Free outdoor fitness classes begin in Deer district despite air quality
On Tuesday, people attended a free training class at the Fiserve Forum Square despite poor air quality.
Despite the smoky sky, the square outside the Fiserv Forum was packed with fitness classes on Tuesday morning. Haze from the Canadian wildfires blanketed Milwaukee’s skyline, but attendees didn’t mind it as part of the free outdoor training. “I think some people used that as an excuse, but it wasn’t my intention,” said Otto, owner of Dropout Fight Club, which hosted the 7:30 a.m. class on Tuesday. Mr Allson said. “I mean, it’s dry and foggy, but once you’re in the training zone, it’s so focused. That’s one of the reasons people do this. That hour is when all the other switches “It’s just time to turn off.” It was the first of 14 free classes planned in the Deer area. From boxing to yoga to Zumba, all kinds of workouts are offered by him by four different fitness companies. “This is the first time,” Colleen Seegers said. “I wanted to go last summer, but it never happened. So when I saw Dropout coming back, I decided to come here on the first day.” This class is at 7am. However, air quality in Milwaukee deteriorated further throughout the day, forcing the Milwaukee Health Department to issue an air pollution advisory. If air quality is a concern, experts say an N95 mask will filter out most smoke particles. Outdoor classes can also be changed to indoor lessons. “If the smoke gets too bad, classes will still be held at the River West gym,” said Allson. “But whether it’s boxing or any other class, please come out anyway and support other gyms involved too. Especially after Corona, people are still getting back on their feet. Although these classes are free “You can come in as a coach and just watch the game.”
