Personal Fitness Program Checklist:

Required:

  • A current Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA membership.
  • A commitment on the participant’s part to exercise three times each week for twelve weeks.
  • Participants may be required to obtain a medical clearance from their doctor for certain health issues.

Provided:

  • A moderate, gradual exercise program that is introduced in increments (through five appointments over the course of 12 weeks), using cardiovascular exercise and strength training. The program is located in a separate workout area for the comfort of the
    participant.
  • Personal attention. Participant’s progress will be tracked by the YMCA instructor for the duration of the program. Member-to-staff ratio will remain low so that personal
    attention will be readily available.
  • State-of-the-art Keiser strength training equipment will be used. There are 12 pieces of strength training equipment and four types of cardiovascular training equipment
    incorporated into the program.
  • The opportunity to continue exercising in the PFC at the program’s conclusion, or to expand into other areas and programs.
