Club Z embracing age-friendly online workouts

- CONTRIBUTE­D

Club Z is opening the virtual door with its online workout classes designed with an age-positive approach.

With profession­al instructor-led workouts, adults who are 50 and older have the opportunit­y to get one-on-one coaching during their workout sessions from the comfort of their own homes, creating a welcoming space for people of all fitness levels and abilities.

The instructor­s bring their knowledge as physiother­apists to the classes, helping members move more safely and confidentl­y during the workouts.

Laura Lundquist, founder of Club Z and an instructor, has seen first-hand how it’s making a real impact.

“When we designed Club Z, we believed in its power to create meaningful change in people’s lives,” says Lundquist.

“We have been thrilled to watch those changes happen for our members.

Whether it’s throwing the stick further for the dog, getting back to activities they thought they had to give up or simply moving through the days with greater ease, our members are delighted with their progress.

These success stories are fuelling our desire to grow our Club Z community to help more members achieve their health and wellness goals.”

Club Z’s online workout classes offer several key benefits, such as building mobility, improving strength and balance, as well as making everyday movements easier so members can get back to doing the things they love most and stay motivated.

With four membership levels — Digital on Demand (full access to Club Z’s online fitness video library), Essential (five online live classes per month), Essential Plus (five online live classes per month and full access to the fitness video library) and All Access (unlimited online live classes and full access to the fitness video library) — it’s designed to be accessible and accommodat­e different lifestyles and budgets so fitness goals are never off limits.

There are five locations where members can get in-person quarterly assessment­s to monitor their progress: Halifax, New Glasgow, Kingston, Toronto, Ont., and St. John’s, N.L.
