YMCA of Middle TN

Wellness

The YMCA movement and its commitment to health and wellness is so strong, it created the sports of basketball and volleyball, as well as YMCA methods for swim instruction that have become the standard in teaching people how to swim. However, fitness is just one part of a larger whole, not a separate activity of the YMCA's other programs and services. The YMCA has never focused on the body alone, because for over a century the Y has recognized that person has achieved total health when his/her spirit, mind and body are balanced.

Aerobic & Conditioning Classes
Monthly class schedules are available at the member service desk. If you are new to a class, please let the instructor know before the class starts. For specific class dates and times, see schedules below or contact the Sumner County Family YMCA at 826-YMCA (9622).

Group Fitness
Class Descriptions

If you are new to class, let your instructor know so that she/he can help you get the most out of your workout!

Equipment Orientations
Equipment orientations are for all YMCA members and are FREE. An equipment orientation gives the member the opportunity to become more knowledgeable and comfortable with the fitness equipment in both the machine and free weight areas. A trained YMCA Fitness Team member will show you the proper techniques on using certain strength training machines and cardiovascular equipment. We suggest that the equipment orientation is broken down into three appointments, but they can be structured to meet the needs of the member. Each orientation will take approximately one hour to complete. Please wear workout clothes and shoes. Make your appointment now at the member service desk.

Microfit® Evaluations
A great place to start! An evaluation is a great motivational tool that provides a baseline of knowledge in developing your exercise objectives. Each individual receives a computerized printout with their results. The fitness evaluation includes height, weight, resting heart rate, blood pressure, body composition analysis using skin fold calipers, cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength and flexibility. Please wear loose-fitting clothes such as a T-shirt and shorts, women should wear a sports bra under their shirt. By appointment ONLY made at Member Services.
