THE 55 FITNESS BENEFITS
The future is here, and it’s happening faster than you think. The over 55 population in America has been on an upward trend for years now with almost 500,000 people turning 55 every year! However this population does not have a fitness center designed for their specific wants and needs. Until Now!
A recent poll found that approximately 95% of individuals 55 and older would prefer to work out in the company of others their own age. This same poll also showed the #1 reason nearly 50% of respondents did not work out was because they are not comfortable in existing fitness centers since they tend to cater towards young adults.
