Super Seniors - Box, Balance & Lift with Megan McCracken

A comprehensive program that incorporates three vital fitness elements: cardio, balance and toning. The workout is both varied and energizing; this seniors class is truly having fun. You'll start with fat-burning, heart-strengthening aerobics (from simple dance steps to boxer-style jabs and punches). That's followed by rotations and stretches in the balance and flexibility segment. The program ends with classic muscle toning moves like leg lifts and bicep curls (both standing and seated in a chair). Has modifications for seniors-specific conditions (e.g. "if you've had hip surgery..."). Includes a 15-minute pre-workout tutorial.
2 to 5 lb. ankle weights are suggested.

At Super Seniors, we continue to educate ourselves with the ever changing trends of the fitness industry and tailor these trends to fit the needs of seniors. Megan McCracken’s goal is to improve your quality of life and functional fitness so you can maintain or regain the freedom to do all of the things you’ve always loved doing with your families and friends.
