You’re never too old to start exercising! Exercising at Addiction Fitness will add years to your life and life to your years. We understand the importance of regular exercise for people of all ages and budgets. Our safe, low-impact programs for older adults are based on needs, health status and objectives. Trainers are available any time of day to show you proper techniques for lifting weights to avoid injury and maximize the benefit. In addition to recommended strength training, many of our active seniors enjoy socialization while making laps around our walking track, taking an exercise class in our swimming pool or relaxing in our whirlpool.
