Fitness for Life©, presented by the Mercy Preventive Health Center, combines the latest technology in exercise, sport sciences, and preventive health with the latest in cardiopulmonary diagnostics to accurately measure health status and fitness.
Our program is physician supervised and, in some cases, may be covered under managed care health insurance policies. Everyone from the marathon runner to those advised by their physician to start exercising for health improvement can benefit from Fitness for Life© because it isn't a single, cookie cutter approach.
Program components can be done singularly or can be combined to suit personal needs and wants. The testing procedures and computerized analysis yield information to allow us to design an individualized exercise prescription allowing you to become the best you can be, safely.
