SENIOR PROGRAMS
GBC Offers Classes Specifically Designed for Seniors!
Better Balance is designed by our resident Exercise Physiologist and CSCS, Scott Held, who is an expert in fall prevention. The main goals of this class are to help you to prevent falls and teach safe alternatives to common movements.
Total Body Gold is great for the active aging population, consisting of strengthening movements using light weights and resistance bands, and aerobic conditioning movements on the floor or step.
Stretch & Flex is a chair-based stretching and mobility class that focuses on improving joint range of motion and muscle flexibility.
Each class will work to improve total body strength while incorporating flexibility.
Emphasis is placed on:

Core strength

Proprioception & muscle memory

Hip stabilization

PREHAB
Our Prehab program is designed to be completed prior to joint replacement surgery. The purpose of this program is to improve recovery after surgery and decrease the time you spend in rehabilitation. The GBC staff will communicate and send progress updates to your physician.
