Services
Our focus at Fifty 'n Fit is safe and appropriate exercise for a 50-year-old and above population.
Every exercise program is designed for the individual.
We all have different needs, weaknesses, areas of tightness, medical and orthopedic issues to work on, and personal goals that certainly should be pursued.
Every exercise performed in the gym should relate to real-life movement patterns and real-life activities.
That is what we refer to as functional exercise.

Individuals may join in the calendar year that they will turn 50; spouses may join if one member of the couple is 50.
Can older adults, including those with medical issues, really exercise enough to make a difference?
There are very important exercises that the person with bone loss really would be wise to do; and there are exercises that are truly dangerous and the person with osteoporosis should never do.
We love to teach all that is important to know about exercising safely, posture correction, balance and fall prevention, the very significant value of strength training, and everyday body mechanics (lifting, sitting, moving safely) for the person with osteoporosis or osteopenia.
