Free and fitness are both good things.

At Georgia Gwinnett College (GGC), you can have both by volunteering to participate in a free, 10-week exercise program. The exercise science and physical education team is conducting this program to accomplish two things. First, it gives volunteers a free fitness assessment and personalized training program. Second, GGC’s exercise science students can sharpen their hands-on skills while gaining experience in a practical fitness setting.

Volunteers will have pre- and post-training fitness assessments performed that will include:

  • Blood pressure
  • Body composition
  • Cardiovascular fitness
  • Muscular strength
  • Balance 
  • Flexibility

Following the pre-training assessment, participants will undergo a 10-week, personalized fitness training program on Monday and Wednesday from 5:30-6:30 p.m.  

To participate, volunteers must:

  • Be healthy adults between 45-65.
  • Not have any major health complications.
  • Not currently be participating in regular exercise.
  • Be available Mondays and Wednesdays from 5:30-6:30 p.m.
