The SilverSneakers^® Fitness Program is offered through healthcare providers nationwide and provides a basic health club membership with access to SilverSneakers^® Fitness Classes and other senior-safe exercise classes. The SilverSneakers Fitness Class is a strength and conditioning class designed specifically for the Medicare-eligible population and focuses on increasing muscular strength and flexibility.

The popular fitness class benefits participants from "head to toe" with warm-up and range-of-movement exercises before working with hand-held weights, elastic tubing, and balls for a total body workout.

The cool-down, final stretch, and relaxation segments calm and refresh students to return to their daily activities with a renewed sense of confidence.

As participants' conditioning increases, SilverSneakers expands with more challenging choreography that focuses on movement exercises to prepare them for a heart-healthy cardiovascular workout. This level is followed by the third level of exercises developed to enhance conditioning work for improving strength and style.

The class meets the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's suggestion that Seniors incorporate moderate to vigorous physical activity into their daily lives for significant health benefits.
