Do you find yourself saying, "I'm not as young as I used to be." Don't you really mean, "I'm not as strong as I used to be?" Well, now you can turn back the hands of time. You've just found the Fountain of Youth.... Geri-Fit® - the first workout with weights available on DVD, VHS and now group classes in your area!
The Geri-Fit® strength training series of exercise programs and workout DVD's offer superior results for shaping the body, improving cardiovascular conditioning, increasing bone density, and even preventing osteoporosis.
All of our strength training programs and DVD's require just a set of 2 to 5-pound (each) dumbbells. Any age and fitness level can do these workouts... simply work out at your own pace.
These strength training exercise programs and DVD products are designed to shape and tone the body without building muscular size or bulk. Geri-Fit® is highly recommended to those enrolled in a weight loss program because strength training will help to retain lean muscle tissue while it boosts your metabolism which helps you to burn calories at a faster rate.
The strength training exercises are easy-to-learn and fun to do. They are performed stationary thus having no impact on the joints -- unlike aerobics, step and dance-type workouts. Participants also see results three times faster because weights are used to stress the muscles. The Geri-Fit® strength training exercise DVD's and series of exercise classes have also been found to help prevent and oftentimes reverse osteoporosis.

One of the questions we often receive is how Geri-Fit® differs from aerobics and step classes. Besides the obvious - no dance routines, jumping, jazzing, steps or embarrassing doggie leg lift exercises -- strength training, not aerobic exercise, is the most powerful activity in the fat battle.
Strong, toned muscles increase your metabolism and burn calories far more than aerobic dance sessions, pilates, yoga, tai chi, walking or stair climbing. And although these activities are valuable for strengthening the heart and lungs and increasing flexibility, they are minimum contributors to weight control. With Geri-Fit®, you receive a cardiovascular and a fat-burning workout.
Here's a chart comparing Geri-Fit® to aerobics.
Our Certified instructors will teach you the proper way to work out with weights while providing expert one-on-one instruction. It's like getting a personal fitness trainer, every time you work out!
Some benefits of Geri-Fit® include:
- superior muscle shape and tone
- cardiovascular conditioning
