Silver Sneakers®
| The SilverSneakers® Fitness Program is an older adult fitness program that addresses the needs of the Medicare-eligible population. SilverSneakers® members receive a free basic fitness center membership in addition to having a specially-designed exercise class. SilverSneakers® classes focus on cardiovascular health, muscle strength, balance, coordination and conditioning. These classes are safe and fun. They do not offer floor exercises as part of the curriculum. Signature classes are available at each participating branch. SilverSneakers® I Muscular Strength & Range of Movement is a trademarked group exercise class designed for older adults. Exercises include work for all major and minor muscle groups addressing strength, flexibility, muscular endurance, balance, coordination, agility, speed and power. The class format includes a warm-up and rhythmic range of movement stretch, work with resistance tools, cool down, final stretch and relaxation segment. It is an equipment-based, multi-level, total body conditioning class in which students use hand-held weights, elastic tubing with handles, a SilverSneakers playball and a chair for standing and/or seated support. SilverSneakers® II Cardio Circuit combines standing, non-impact choreography designed to increase cardiovascular and muscular endurance with standing, upper body strength work using hand-held weights, elastic tubing with handles, and a ball. |
