Rosealind and Gail's Story - LIVESTRONG Participants

I joined LiveStrong in reference to my advisor after having weight surgery. I had and fought cancer also. Working on my health at my age was important.

This group did not allow me to give up. Not only that, I found wonderful friendships. I became stronger physically and emotionally.

Thank you for this group.

The LiveStrong program offered at the YMCA is for those who are looking to rebuild strength, balance and increase stamina.

I was looking for ways to rebuild my strength during and after months of chemo and radiation treatments. The LiveStrong program is a safe place to learn fitness plans while feeling the support from the personal coaching and group instructors.

The class offers a variety of activities from yoga, water exercise, weight machines, nutrition and more.

Going through the program added to my quality of life both physically and mentally. The relationships built by cheering each other on and sharing personal experiences are very gratifying.

Gaining strength through the program was a steppingstone to more physical activities like bicycling, kayaking and yoga class.

I highly recommend the YMCA LiveStrong program!!!
