Fitness program proves you're never to old to get (or stay) in shape
12:03 PM PDT on Wednesday, April 23, 2008
SilverSneakers is the nation’s leading fitness program for seniors, ages 65 and older.
The SilverSneakers Fitness Program offers a unique blend of physical activity, healthy lifestyle and socially oriented programming that enables older adults to take greater control of their health.
Perhaps the best part of the program is that it’s available at no additional cost to individuals who belong to participating Medicare health plans or Medicare Supplement carriers.
When you enroll in SilverSneakers you receive:
•A free basic membership at a local participating fitness center with access to conditioning classes, exercise equipment, pool, sauna and other amenities that accompany the basic membership
•Access to any participating fitness center throughout the U.S. while traveling
•Customized SilverSneakers classes designed exclusively for older adults who want to improve their strength, flexibility, balance and endurance
•Health education seminars and other events that promote the benefits of a healthy lifestyle
•A specially trained Senior Advisor at the fitness center to introduce you to SilverSneakers and acquaint you with their site
