The YMCA hosted a FREEseniors health assessment to measure various health indicators that contribute to your overall health. Students from the School of Health and Exercise Sciences at UBC Okanagan helped with the assessments!!
“We want to show older adults where to start when it comes to exercise while also providing a supportive community that will help them achieve their goals. Providing a space to be both social and active helps participants stick with a routine,” says YMCA health promotions manager, Adriane Long.
Each assessment is approximately one hour and includes testing of cardiovascular endurance, balance, flexibility, blood pressure, strength, agility, and more. Please wear comfortable footwear and clothing.
