Since February of 2013 the Texas Department of Public Safety’s Fitness Wellness Unit has been working hard to promote health and fitness for employees at the State Capitol Complex. We currently offer Cross Training classes at no cost to employees.
To participate in these classes please complete the following steps:
- Complete and electronically submit this PAR-F form via e-mail to physicalfitness@dps.texas.gov.
- Complete the steps outlined on the TFC Wellness Areas page:
- Complete and electronically submit the waiver from your state e-mail address to Tfcaccess.Bushbldg@tfc.texas.gov.
- Wait for reply e-mail granting building access, if needed.
The classes are 30 minutes long and meet on the first floor of the Barbara Jordan Building in the Capital Complex. All equipment needed for the workout is provided. Typical workouts include body weight exercises such as squats, lunges, push-ups, and exercises using sand bells, kettle bells, medicine balls, resistance bands, jump ropes, and rowing machines. In addition, there are rowers and spin bikes for use at any time the facility is open as well as step up boxes, dumbbells, and bench.
