Fun Fitness at Latham Centers with Personal Trainer, Jamie Hoffman
February 22, 2017
Beads of sweat rolled down the smiling faces of our residents as they participated in a workout circuit last night at the Great Hill Residential Home. Jamie Hoffman, co-owner, and personal trainer of Fitness Revolution in Orleans, visited Latham Centers for the fourth time from 5:30-6:30 pm. Jamie and our residents have enjoyed working with one another immensely, and this time Jamie created a full circuit of 16 exercises (plus alternative exercises) to be utilized by or residents and staff throughout the year.
Jamie and staff were impressed by our residents’ stamina and attention throughout the process. Beginning with a half-hour tutorial of the different exercises and ending with stretches, the residents were captivated by Jamie’s enthusiasm and support. Jamie encouraged our residents to push themselves to the best of their ability, but to take breaks as necessary. Below, we list 16 exercises, or “stations”, of the circuit.
