Fitness Centers: An Investigation
Today, we have many Americans who are obsessed with health, and
yet we are a nation of obese individuals. Obesity in this
country has reached epidemic proportions, and we have more
available than at any other time in history to help us control
our weight. What is the problem? Why do we still have health
issues, when we have some many health facilities available?
There are facilities that cater to the young, the old, the
male, the female. There are 24 hour facilities, facilities that
offer daycare, individualized programs, youth programs,
organized classes, and fitness assessments. It would seem with
all these choices, that Americans would not have any problem
controlling their weight, their health or their overall
wellness. Many fitness centers offer the new client an
opportunity for an initial assessment, personalized training
plans, and continued consultation services, free with their
membership.
If you happen to be a mother, with small children, many of the
fitness facilities offer built in daycare facilities. You are
free to exercise, while your children play in a supervised and
safe setting. If you also happen to feel uncomfortable
exercising in mixed company, there are fitness centers that
offer men only or women only exercise times. If not designated
times, often they have segregated facilities.
What about Pilates, aerobics and other forms of organized and
instructed toning and cardiovascular health? Most fitness
facilities have that covered also. Upon joining a gym or center
you are usually provided a schedule of classes that are being
taught, and the times that they are taught. Then
once each
month, you will receive a newsletter and calendar that provides
updated information about facility changes, class offerings and
any other points of interest.
There is just simply no reason that a person could not locate
a fitness that suits his or her needs and become a part of the
health movement. Cost is usually not an issue, either. Today,
many companies offer free memberships for their employees in an
effort to cut medical expense and lost time due to sickness and
injuries. On the average, a healthy employee costs an employer
$1000 dollars less each year, than the coworker who does not
participate in health and fitness programs. That simply takes
medical costs into consideration.
What about lost productivity due to illness or injury? If you
find that your company doesn't offer such a plan, the monthly
expenditure for a membership to the gym, should more than pay
for itself in the course of your attaining a level of increased
health. You should see a decrease in your medical bills, and
over the counter health needs, simply because your body is in a
better position to fight off germs and bacteria.
Fitness centers and gyms across this country open each day, to
provide persons form all walks of life, a better chance at
health; to afford each person the opportunity to work toward
overall wellness and a fit and conditioned body. It is up to
each individual to take advantage of that opportunity.
