Strength and Balance - Gunnedah Fun N Fitness offers a variety of fitness programs tailored specifically for individuals over 50, over 70, and those with disabilities. The classes are held at the Gunnedah Services and Bowling Club or can be brought directly to you. One popular class they offer is called Golden Oldies, a 45-minute session focused on improving balance, increasing strength, and boosting activity levels for older clients. The best part? All exercises in the class can be modified to suit individual needs, ensuring it is suitable for maintaining independent living or simply getting back on your feet. Plus, the first class is absolutely free! It's not just about the exercise though, it's also a fantastic opportunity to meet new friends or reconnect with old ones. All participants are advised to wear comfortable clothing and shoes. Join the fun and enjoy the class at The Carter Room for just $7 per session. Sessions are held at 1.30pm every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Regular participation can greatly benefit individuals by helping them maintain or improve their leg muscles, supporting independent living. Don't just take our word for it, hear it from the satisfied participants who have experienced the enjoyment and fun these classes bring.
Apart from the Golden Oldies class, Gunnedah Fun N Fitness also offers Small Group Training specifically designed for individuals over 50. This training includes Cardio Circuit sessions and Resistance Training sessions. The Cardio Circuit session is a 40-minute class that consists of a 5-minute warmup, 25 minutes of cardio exercises, and a 10-minute cooldown. This circuit-style training incorporates a variety of exercises done as quickly as possible with regular rest periods. It caters to participants of all fitness levels, providing not only an effective cardio workout but also loads of fun and laughter. On the other hand, the 45-minute Resistance Training session includes a 5-minute warmup, 30 minutes of resistance training, and a 10-minute cooldown. This class utilises a stick connected to your feet by bands, varying in weight. It's perfect for increasing muscle and core strength, improving balance and coordination, and enhancing flexibility. Similar to the Cardio Circuit session, the Resistance Training session is suitable for all fitness levels. Both of these training sessions require bookings and cost $15 per casual visit.
Small Group Training offers the benefits of working with a personal trainer at a lower cost, while still enjoying the camaraderie, support, and fun of group exercise. Each session has a limit of 2–6 people to ensure everyone receives personalised attention and proper exercise instruction. There are package options available for purchasing and booking sessions. The first option is buying and booking one session a week for five weeks, which costs $70 and comes with a free health appraisal and an exercise program for the five weeks. The second option is buying and booking two sessions a week for five weeks, priced at $135 and also includes a free health appraisal and an exercise program for the five weeks. If the existing group session times do not fit an individual's schedule, they have the option to create their own group with 2–4 people per session. Starting at $50 per hour, the pricing for creating a custom group may vary based on specific needs. Additionally, gift vouchers are available for all the programs offered by Gunnedah Fun N Fitness, making them a thoughtful and ongoing gift for someone special. Whether it's for Christmas, a birthday, anniversary, a newborn baby, or simply to show love, a Gunnedah Fun N Fitness program is a gift that keeps on giving.
