LIVESTRONG AT THE YMCA

20111208 2107 hr RGB

LIVESTRONG at the YMCA is a FREE twelve-week, small group program designed for adult cancer survivors.

Our goal is to help participants build muscle mass and muscle strength, increase flexibility and endurance and improve functional ability. Additional goals include reducing the severity of therapy side effects, preventing unwanted weight changes and improving energy levels and self-esteem. A final goal of the program is to assist participants in developing their own physical fitness program so they can continue to practice a healthy lifestyle, not only as part of their recovery, but as a way of life.

In addition to the physical benefits, the program provides participants a supportive environment and a feeling of community with their fellow survivors, Y staff and members. Y cancer exercise trainers work with each participant to fit the program to their individual needs. Trainers are trained in the elements of cancer, post rehab exercise and supportive cancer care. Classes will be offered weekdays with daytime and evening classes.

The LIVESTRONG at the YMCA program includes:
• Two 75 minute classes per week
• Full access to the Y seven days a week

NEXT SESSION: To be Announced

CRITERIA FOR PARTICIPATION

  • Strong personal desire and commitment to participate for the full 12 weeks; twice a week for 75 minutes to strength train and cardio.
  • Complete the LIVESTRONG at the YMCA Medical Clearance Form for participation from doctor.
  • Complete a confidential health assessment intake interview.

To learn more about LIVESTRONG at the YMCA, contact Christina Murphy, Lead Instructor of LIVESTRONG, E cmurphy@cccymca.org
