Humana Inc. Selects Silver&Fit(R) Fitness and Healthy Aging Program for Its Senior Members in Arizona and Pennsylvania
American Specialty Health (ASH), a personal health improvement company,
announced today that Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM) has selected the Silver&Fit®
fitness and healthy aging program for its senior product members in the
states of Arizona and Pennsylvania.
Upon enrollment to the Silver&Fit program, Humana members in Arizona and
Pennsylvania receive a no-cost membership at a nearby participating
fitness club. The Silver&Fit membership includes all of the standard
amenities offered by that club’s basic
membership, plus Silver&Fit customized senior-specific exercise and
healthy aging classes at some clubs. Members may also participate in
social activities that help seniors meet other seniors.
Silver&Fit members in Arizona may receive no-cost individual personal
training sessions at participating Silver&Fit clubs.
"The long-term health benefits of regular
exercise for senior adults are compelling,”
said Debbie Smith, regional president of Senior Products for Humana’s
Western Region. "In addition to helping
seniors stay physically healthy, Silver&Fit also offers a great way for
them to socialize, meet new friends and have fun.”
Humana members in Arizona may also choose to participate in the
Healthyroads Coaching™ Program for Weight
Management and Healthy Living, a telephone and online coaching and
education program that coaches members on fitness, activity, nutrition
and weight loss.
Seniors who are not able to participate at the fitness club or simply
prefer to work out at home may participate instead in the Silver&Fit@Home™
program. Upon enrollment, seniors receive an Exercise Kit and a Walking
Kit, which include tools to help them perform exercises at home.
Silver&Fit@Home members may receive DVDs or Internet access to the same
classes offered at the exercise facilities.
Silver&Fit members receive a quarterly newsletter, access to the
SilverandFit.com Web site, and a toll-free hotline to provide
information and answer questions about the program.
"Silver&Fit provides health programs that can
transform a senior’s life,”
said ASH chairman, president, and chief executive officer George
DeVries. "Humana is taking a proactive step
in ensuring a healthier life for its members in Arizona and Pennsylvania.”
Silver&Fit was developed to assist seniors in beginning or continuing a
regular exercise program. Regular exercise has shown to be an important
element in preventing some medical conditions, including high blood
pressure and heart and lung disease. Cardiovascular and strength
training can also help seniors improve their balance and become more
flexible, preventing common slips and falls and speeding up the recovery
period from such injuries. Access to the network of exercise facilities
is provided through ASH subsidiary American Specialty Health Networks,
Inc.
