Exercise Classes Designed For You
Maintaining an adequate amount of lower- and upper-body strength is necessary for executing a variety of common tasks associated with physical independence.
These include: climbing stairs, walking distances, getting out of a chair (or the bathtub), standing up from the floor, lifting and lowering objects, carrying groceries and reducing risk for falls.
Regular muscle strengthening has been shown to help you manage blood pressure, blood sugar and blood cholesterol levels, as well as prevent and control heart disease and type 2 diabetes. Strength training can also help osteoarthritis, combat muscle degeneration and bone density loss.
Classes run for approximately 1 hour.
