Services Offered
A $500 initiation fee is needed to establish your current fitness level and medical health status. This one-time fee includes a one-hour consult with a physician and a series of tests with an exercise physiologist.

These tests are important in determining functional ability, training zones, and fitness levels. After these preliminary investigations, you will receive a report with recommendations for a fitness health regime.

Personal training sessions are also available at a rate of $110 per one hour session. Group rates are available if you prefer training with a circle of friends or coworkers (maximum of 4 participants for a total of 4 hours a month) for $160.00. General exercise prescriptions are also available.

Importance of Fitness
The availability of processed foods, easy access to fast food restaurants and a sedentary lifestyle has contributed to the burden of disease. According to the World Health Organization (WHO, 2006), physical inactivity increases the risk of diseases such as cardiovascular disease, obesity, hypertension, depression, anxiety and some types of cancer. A sedentary lifestyle is one of the ten leading causes of death and disability. According to research done by the American Heart Association, regular exercise can lower the chances of cardiovascular diseases by at least 50%.
