What happens in the supervised exercise classes?
At the start of the class, you will be given a heart rate monitor (or you will bring your own) and your blood pressure reading will be taken. At that time, the exercise physiologist will provide your exercise prescription for the day. You will then proceed to the gym to begin exercising. The exercise supervisor that is on-site during the class will come by to check your heart rate and provide you with education and guidance during the class. Supervised classes prepare individuals to exercise on their own and provide both structured guidance for exercise and support.
