Re: Senior Fitness Programs

Hey Group:

I am soon starting a " Senior Fitness " program through my fitness center,

which adjoins my PT private practice.I'm trying to develop a fairly

structured program that incorporates strength, stretching, and conditioning

in a 45' session. I'm looking for any ideas for different programs already

developed that are flexible to accommodate a very vast senior group with

respect to physical abilities. I would appreciate any suggestions, be it

website/software, or potential problems some of you may have encountered

with a program such as this.

Hello ,

I learned of this program at a continuing education course at Regis University

in Denver. http://www.parkinsonsmoveit.com I have found success with many of

their recommendations for PD. I am also interested in this listserv response

to your question as our clinic considers such a program.

Sue,

We have been pleased with Silver Sneakers. Especially good if you have some of

the insurance plans that encourage and pay (very minimally) for attendance. For

us, the goal was to offset some cost and provide a community service. It

happens outside my office, so I know there are some regulars and some transitory

participants – better suited for a fitness center. It is a valuable service

no matter which way you go.

Take Care,

Wade

Do you have a link to their website?  A search of those words did not produce a

specific program.  Thanks.
