Keg Conditioning is the Ultimate Workout for Colorado Beer Lovers

With more than 430 breweries, Colorado is truly a beer lover's paradise. Not only do these local brew-based establishments offer tasty, hop-filled beverages in fun environments, but some go above and beyond to build up the beer industry.

The Golden Mill in Golden, Colorado is a great example of this.

In addition to having two self-pour tap walls with a total of 62 taps, the lively food/beer hall hosts a unique summer fitness series featuring kegs as the main component of the workouts.

The Sunday sessions consist of 45 minutes that combine strength and cardio for a complete core-building experience. According to the venue's website, the innovative classes incorporate empty kegs and a variety of other equipment, such as weighted balls and resistance bands, to help participants build stability and endurance in their bodies.

These workouts are anything boring or monotonous! Rather, they're a unique and exciting way to stay fit and healthy, while having a good time. Few gyms provide a space that allows people to exercise, plus eat and drink, all in the same spot - but at the Golden Mill that's entirely possible.

Sunday's keg conditioning classes are held at 9 a.m. in the north-facing parking lot.

All levels are encouraged to sign up for these strength-building sessions. Keg conditioning classes are $12 per person which includes a $7 pour at The Golden Mill. Register for upcoming sessions online at unite.fitness/schedule or via the Mindbody app. All participants must sign a waiver before participating.

The Golden Mill is located at 1012 Ford Street next to the scenic Clear Creek.
