WHAT IS FIT60*

Free for Members

We understand that sometimes beginning your membership can be a little overwhelming. With dozens of programs, opportunities, and equipment to learn, you may find yourself not knowing where to start. The Fit 60 appointment is designed to help you with this. Our Wellness coach will spend 60 minutes with you to fully understand your particular needs and goals. He or she will discuss and show you programs, equipment, and classes that will best fit you needs. You should expect to leave with an understanding of what fits you best here at our Y and where to start.

ActivTrax – For members who want to incorporate resistance training in their exercise program with one of the most powerful fitness tools available. ActivTrax helps guide you in reaching your overall goals through activity tracking, guided workouts and nutrition and meal planning.

Coaching Session – Coaches will help design an exercise program that fits the member’s needs.
