Volunteers will have a pre-training and post-training fitness assessment performed, including the following categories:

  • Blood pressure
  • Body composition
  • Cardiovascular fitness
  • Muscular strength
  • Balance
  • Flexibility

Following the pre-training assessment, participants will undergo a 10-week personalized fitness training program two days per week with each session lasting approximately one hour.
