Working out on a regular basis helps improve both physical and mental health. Studies show that even modest regular exercise can improve cardiovascular conditioning, and can help increase and extend concentration levels. In addition working out in one of the fitness centers is an excellent way to meet other residents and to develop friendships. Whether striving for strength, toning, weight loss, or simply trying to stay fit, the equipment and services necessary for a complete workout can be found in each of the Residential Fitness Centers. Certainly one of the oldest, yet still most effective workout systems are those involving weights.
Most fitness centers offer twin tier dumbbell racks, complete with an adjustable incline bench.
Additionally, most centers feature the Cybex Smith Machine, which offers built-in safety features for squats, bench presses and other exercises involving weights. Body conditioning is simple and fast as Cybex circuits provide equipment ranging from dumbbells to plate loaded to modular systems. A few centers offer the traditional Nautilus cable and plate machines. Aside from circuit training, each of our Residential Fitness Centers features machines designed to build cardiovascular strength and endurance. Stationary bicycles and step machines recreate the experience of riding a bike and climbing without having to brave the elements.
