“Use it or Lose it!”

You’ve heard it and most of us know it’s true. So why aren’t more people over the age of 50 exercising? Most health clubs don’t address baby-boomers or more mature adults needs.

Research and listening to our members has taught us that physical independence as they grow older is very important and strong muscles are a must for independent mobility. The biggest challenge facing independence is the progressive decrease of physical abilities. After age 40, a condition called sarcopenia sets in, an age-related loss of muscle mass, that leads to weight gain, poor health and falls. Strength training along with proper nutrition are proven methods to help counter this condition.

Hank’s Gym Fit after Fifty Program mission is to help members maintain independence and quality of life. Our program is particularly focused on building muscle which leads to improved posture, lowering cholesterol, blood sugar levels and blood pressure, as well as increasing bone density, improving balance and flexibility, alleviating joint pain and most importantly, making you feel stronger independent and fit.
