Healthy You Getting fit and losing weight are among the most popular New Year’s resolutions. However, statistics confirm that by February 1st, they are generally abandoned for another eleven months. We can help! As we enter into our busiest part of the season, here are a few helpful hints to make your visit to the Fitness and Spa facilities more enjoyable: Please remind all guests that the Fitness Center is available after before 7am or after 11am am daily December 17 – January 1 and November 1 – April 30 from before 7am or after -10am.  Guests may participate in all land and water classes regardless of the time.  During busier times, please be aware of the 30 minute time limit on all cardiovascular machines.  Drink plenty of fluids before and after your workout.  Make sure you let the fitness staff know if you are not feeling well.  Exercise is one of the most important parts of your wellness plan. It promotes strength and flexibility, helps maintain a healthy body weight, reduces pain and improves overall mobility and quality of life. For our members with osteoarthritis, stretching and strengthening the hip, thigh and knee are key to achieving these goals.  Stretching exercises help preserve or increase the joints’ range of motion. Strengthening exercises make your joints more stable and provide cushioning and support around the joints.  Exercise combined with an aerobic activity, such as walking for 45 minutes daily, provides a basic program for conditioning your lower extremities. An instructor can tell you how many times to do these exercises and for how long each day to get the most benefit. When following an exercise plan, patience and faithfulness are important. It may take some time before you notice an improvement. Don’t give up! The Spa  Remember to arrive 15 minutes prior to all scheduled spa appointments to allow time for you to relax, use the amenities and prepare for your service.  Be sure to book all spa appointments well in advance.  Drink plenty of fluids before and after your treatments. Our state-of-the-art facilities are the best around and they are just moments away from your home. Come and enjoy and make 2014 the year your resolutions become a reality. Fitness Center 
