Community Fitness Trail

The Community Fitness Trail features warm-up stretching, aerobic exercise guidelines and cool-down stretching stations designed for a thorough exercise routine. Use of the trail is free.

There are eight different stations, each with exercise apparatus and posted instructions on how to use the equipment. At the beginning of the trail, there are instructions on how to take a “10-second pulse rate” that will be used during the cool-down phase following exercise.

For those who have never walked the trail, instructors at the Wellness Center can give a quick orientation to the stations. If used properly, the trail can provide an excellent total body workout that includes both cardiovascular conditioning and strength-training benefits.

Some users prefer to bypass the exercise stations and simply jog or walk the tree-shaded paths that wind and loop through the park-like setting. It’s a great stress reliever, and it’s fun.

We encourage hospital visitors to take a break from the waiting room and walk the trail. It gives them something to do besides just wait. Visitors are welcome to use the Wellness Center for changing and showering.
