Our Mission is to make regular exercise a permanent part of your life!

On the one hand, there's regular exercise. On the other, investing in your retirement.

Let's first look at the similarities.

The earlier you start, the better off you'll be.
We're told again and again there is no better time to begin planning for your future than right now. We look at calculations and projections and see that if we started investing when we were younger, we'd be that much further ahead of the game. Recently, research published in the August 25th American Journal of Preventative Medicine showed that people who began exercising in early adulthood, and continued, were significantly more fit and healthy as they aged.

It's never too late to start.
So, you think the bus has left the station? No way! There's no time like right now to begin investing in yourself. Sure, it may be a little uncomfortable at first, but in the long run you will be able to reap the benefits.

It's best to see the guidance of professionals to educate yourself.
There are retirement advisers and fitness trainers, both ready, willing, and able to guide you through a sometimes confusing world. Our fitness team is always ready to answer any question you may have and help you meet your realistic goals.

There are bad investments!
Absolutely! Fad diets, odd exercise contraptions, and empty promises are like mines in a minefield, ready to waste your time, money, and health. In planning for your future, both financially and health wise, you have to be prepared to be in it for the long haul - a lifetime, in fact.

In some ways, the two are different. For example, when investing in your retirement, the payoff sometimes seems a long way away, especially if you're starting early. However, oftentimes when beginning an exercise program, the positive side effects can be felt right away. This helps us get through that early stage of beginning a program.

And, unlike retirement investing, with exercise you don't have to look at a statement to see how you're doing. Taking two steps at a time, increasing your weights on the Circuit, running that 5K, increasing resistance in Group Ride, dancing at your grandchild's wedding, going a little farther on the treadmill, trying that new group exercise class and having a terrific time, all signs that you're investment in yourself is paying off.
