Body Fit Program

Some studies have shown that we start to lose muscle mass after the age of 30, and  bone density peaks between the ages to 25-35 and then begins to decrease.  However, these losses can be diminished by implementing a safe and effective weight-bearing strengthening training program.

Furthermore, our metabolism starts slowing down 5% every 10 years after the age of 40.  That means at 40 we start to burn 100 less calories a day with the same activites.  

A comprehensive cardiovascular, flexibility, and strength training program can increase strength, improve metabolism, prevent injuries, and improve body image.  When a  flexibility and strengthening program is combined with a safe cardiovascular program, you will not only see the previous benefits, but also reduce your risk for heart disease and increase your endurance. 

Some studies are also indicating a connection between exercise and decreased occurance of dementia (age-related loss of memory).

Let our qualified staff members design an exercise program that targets your needs and your expectations to allow you to be fit at any age.
