From an article on the Mayo Clinic website, "Walking: Trim
your waistline, improve your health":
Can you really walk your way to fitness? You bet! Get started
today. Know the benefits.
Physical activity doesn't need to be complicated. Something
as simple as a daily brisk walk can help you live a healthier life.
For example, regular brisk walking can help you:
• Maintain a healthy weight
• Prevent or manage various conditions, including heart
disease, high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes
• Strengthen your bones
• Lift your mood
• Improve your balance and coordination
The faster, farther and more frequently you walk, the greater
the benefits.
Walking is what we do. The class consists of seven different
Leslie Sansone "Walk Fit" DVDs. The easy-to-follow routines
are set to music with varying tempos. The complete class is
four miles, but you can come late or leave early to shorten
your routine and work at your own level. A few of the DVDs
incorporate resistance bands (always optional). Some class
members add light hand weights for added strength training.
New members are always welcome!
Class Schedule: Mon., Wed., Fri., 7:45 to 8:45 am; Thurs., 6
pm in the Lodge Ballroom. The class is FREE!
