About Silver Sneakers Fitness
Silver Sneakers Fitness is a program offered by CenterWell Primary Care, part of CHI St. Luke’s Health - Performance Medicine, dedicated to improving the health and wellness of seniors in Central Florida. Our comprehensive fitness program is specifically designed for individuals aged 65 and older, offering a variety of exercise classes and activities to promote an active lifestyle and enhance overall well-being.
The Importance of Senior Fitness
Maintaining an active lifestyle is crucial for seniors to maintain their physical health, mental well-being, and independence. Regular exercise can help reduce the risks of chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis. It also improves balance, flexibility, and strength, reducing the likelihood of falls and injuries.
