The focus of Adult Health and Fitness at the YMCA is found right in our mission: We build a healthy spirit, mind and body for all. Health and fitness is a lifelong pursuit. We know that making a habit of eating healthy and exercising will pay off in the long run. Healthy people not only feel and look better, but they also make less trips to the doctor and pharmacy. So it pays to be in shape! Studies also show the benefits from sound nutrition and exercise will make dramatic improvements in increased self-esteem, improved mood, additional energy and an even greater ability to do everyday activities at home and work. The benefits of the healthy lifestyle picked up from the Scott County Family Y will also lower blood pressure and cholesterol, improve many painful joint problems, burn away that pesky body fat, and lower the risks of diseases like diabetes. Be a role model for your kids, grandkids, loved ones, co-workers and friends by taking the first step to a healthy and strong spirit, body and mind by having one of our friendly, passionate and trained staff discuss the most important aspects of a healthy lifestyle, or get a glimpse of all the awesome opportunities we have to make friends and get fit together in our group exercise programs. Most of these classes are absolutely free to members! The most important step to a happy, healthy future is the first one. Let the Scott County Family Y guide you along the way! |
