Fitness Services

• Each resident receives a customized workout program based on his or her medical history, physical abilities and personal fitness goals. Programs are designed to maximize functional strength and improve aerobic capacity.
• Exercise programs are progressively adjusted over time based on how an individual’s body responds to the total workout volume. Factors such as frequency and intensity of exercise collectively play a role in determining an individual’s proper progression.
• Residents are advised by a certified personal trainer as to specific regimes they can perform on their own to maximize daily function. These regimes may include stretches to facilitate circulation, improve the range-of-motion in joints and reduce muscle cramping.

Because of the wonderful fitness classes and activities, and cultural programs offered at Lasell Village, residents often find that they rarely miss a thing due to health issues.
