New Jersey, Nevada, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania,
South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Virginia and Washington. Fitness 19 is

family-friendly facilities.
The SilverSneakers Fitness Program engages participants in active behavior
change through access to a variety of physical activity venues. The program is
available to Medicare beneficiaries through many Medicare Advantage plans,
Medicare Supplement carriers and group retiree plans. Prime Fitness is
Healthways commercial well-being fitness program, inspiring participants to
take charge of their own health and fitness by providing tools, resources and
incentives they need to stay motivated and active. Based on years of proven
science and outcomes, the programs result in members adopting more active
lifestyles.
Any increase in physical activity levels can improve overall health. Physical
activity guidelines suggest that in order to achieve health benefits, American
adults should try to accumulate 2 ½ hours per week of moderate physical
activity (or 1 ¼ hours of vigorous activity) and engage in activities that
strengthen the major muscles of the body twice per week^1. Physical activity
can also mitigate health-related risks and improve the quality of life for
those who already have chronic conditions.
“Fitness 19 is an important addition to our network of fitness centers, and
this collaboration will provide our members with greater access to a
supportive and inspiring fitness environment,” stated Bruce Jerde, Vice
President, Provider Network and Data Administration at Healthways. “Our
members appreciate the quality experiences and the fitness amenities our
extensive network provides.”
The Healthways fitness center network offers convenient access to more than
15,000 participating fitness and wellness facilities nationwide.
