Stay Strong, Stay Healthy (SSSH) aims to provide inactive middle-aged and older adults with access to a safe, structured, and effective exercise program capable of building muscle and increasing bone density, thus decreasing frailty, osteoporosis, and the risk of falls. SSSH helps participants meet the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s physical activity recommendations. 

SSSH challenges participants through incremental increases in exercise volume and intensity. Led by a certified instructor, participants complete a warmup, a prescribed set of upper- and lower-body strengthening exercises, and a cool-down at each class. Participants are made to feel comfortable regardless of their current fitness level to participate and gradually build the strength beneficial to health safety.

This event will be offered on Mondays and Wednesdays, March 25- May 20, 2024*, from 3:30-4:30 pm via Zoom.

*Note: No class, on Wednesday, April 3, 2024
