The greatest wealth is health ~Virgil

Residents got the chance to change their fitness routine this week, as Greenview Place was happy to host Mallory Scholze PT, DPT, a physical therapist from LifeStyle Physical Therapy & Balance Center. Our guest reminded the class that, “It’s never too late to start exercising.” After a warm up and some stretching, the class practiced strength and balance moves to help tone muscles and improve gait.
Staying physically active is an important of daily life. Several studies suggest that exercise is a fantastic way to help keep bones, joints, balance, flexibility, endurance, mood and cognition healthy.
At Greenview Place we offer workouts six days a week. On the week days we hold a group class that is focused on bodyweight resistance moves, calisthenics, stretching, and resistance band work. Then, on Saturdays, the group does a special Tai Chi routine. Stay tuned as we welcome senior Tai Chi professional Mr. Eckart, to Greenview Place for a special session on August 24th.
