Fitness Services

Sessions are conducted by an Exercise Physiologist, giving special attention to your goals, interests, needs, and health status. Members may register in-person at the Fitness Desk or by calling in to speak with someone at the Fitness Desk at (919) 545-2133.

Each one-on-one appointment is conducted by an Exercise Physiologist and incorporates your own goals, interests and needs. We encourage each member to take advantage of these services.

Complimentary Equipment Orientations

These 1-hour appointments with one of our Exercise Physiologists provide a general introduction to the machines and identify those best suited for your exercise routine based on your personal fitness goals.

Program Reviews are available every 3 months following an Equipment Orientation. This 30-minute appointment with one of our Exercise Physiologists allows you the opportunity to safely progress your current exercise routine and learn new exercises.

Blood Pressure and Heart Rate Checks

These quick and easy screenings can be performed and recorded by any Fitness Staff at almost any time. Stop by the Fitness Desk for more information.

Fitness Assessments

Fitness assessments are designed to evaluate your current fitness level, providing valuable data to establish a baseline and track progress over time. The assessment includes measurements of key fitness components: body composition, cardiovascular fitness, muscular strength and endurance, balance, flexibility, and agility. We recommend completing this assessment prior to your complimentary Equipment Orientation to help tailor a personalized fitness plan based on your results. However, this step is optional. The cost for members is $73, and for guests, it’s $85.

MyPlate: The Building Blocks for a Balanced Diet – Taylor

This initial Fitness Assessment includes a series of fitness tests that help determine your current fitness level and provides a baseline with which to chart your progress. The assessment covers all the components of fitness, including: body composition, cardiopulmonary fitness, muscular strength, and flexibility. The results are used by the Exercise Physiologist to develop a customized plan for your Exercise Orientation.

Exercise Orientation – New Member

Exercise Orientation usually follows the Fitness Assessment and will provide you with a general introduction to the equipment in our center and identify those best suited for your personalized exercise regimen. You will receive hands-on demonstrations of how to properly and safely operate the equipment and how best to achieve your personal fitness goals. The orientation will include strength training, cardiovascular exercise and flexibility.

Re-Assessment – Established Member

The Re-Assessment should occur every 5-6 months as a follow-up to your original Fitness Assessment. By repeating the same tests from your previous assessment, this appointment will help you track your progress towards your goals. It is also a time to identify new goals and discuss adjustments to your current program.

Program Evaluation – Established Member

During the Program Evaluation, the Exercise Physiologist will help you re-assess your personal fitness program, review and adjust current exercises, incorporate new goals and discuss suggestions that will enhance your progress. It is recommended that you schedule a Program Evaluation every 3 to 4 months.

Balance Assessment – All Members

Sign up at the Fitness Desk to receive a complimentary balance assessment at a time that is convenient to you. A series of tests based on functional tasks are used to determine relative fall risk.
