The Adult Fitness program is designed to serve apparently healthy adults who want to improve their overall health and fitness. The program is staffed by energetic, qualified graduate students from the Clinical Exercise Physiology masters program. We realize that everyone has individual exercise goals, interests, and abilities. Our goal is to meet the special needs of each member, whether they are a beginning exerciser or an advanced athlete.
