THE COACH APPROACH®

Start Small. Aim High.

97% of Americans struggle to complete regular exercise each week, even though we know how important it is for our health and well-being.

Ask yourself the following 2 questions:

  1.  Do I exercise 2-3 days a week?
  2.  Have I done this consistently (every week) for 6 months or more?

What Your Answer Means.

If you answered no to either or both questions, we would like to invite you to participate in THE COACH APPROACH®.  We're implementing this exercise support process designed to teach new and returning exercisers how to start and stick with their exercise programs. And we're redesigning our wellness floors with three distinct sections to fit your comfort-level - health seeker, step up and athlete. At NO additional charge, you will be paired with a YMCA personal wellness coach who will help you work through your exercise-related challenges. If you have not been exercising 2-3 times a week for 6 months or longer, then THE COACH APPROACH® is right for you.

It starts with a personal assessment and an easy-to-follow plan that helps you: • KICK THE INACTIVITY HABIT • BUILD YOUR SUCCESS AS AN EXERCISER AND FEEL BETTER • SHAPE YOUR WORKOUTS AROUND ACTIVITIES YOU ENJOY • STAY ON TRACK EVEN WHEN YOUR SCHEDULE THROWS YOU A CURVE BALL
