Bone Builder Exercise Program at the NPAA Clubhouse

Naples Park Area Association is please to announce a new partnership between NPPA and the AmeriCorps Seniors Collier County Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) to offer Bone Builders at the NPAA Clubhouse.

 

What is RSVP: The Retired and Senior Volunteer Program or RSVP is national volunteer program that is a federally funded by AmeriCorps Seniors. AmeriCorps Seniors is open to individuals 55 and older who want to volunteer. Locally, the RSVP program is administered by Collier County Government and since the start of the program over 2,600 volunteers have contributed 1.6 million hours of service, and approximate value of $45.6 million. One of the programs offered by RSVP is Bone Builders.

 

What is Bone Builders: Bone Builders was developed from research from Tufts University. This program uses low impact, low weight exercises to increase bone density and when done correctly and consistently can reverse the effects of osteoporosis. According to the National Osteoporosis Foundation an estimated 10 million Americans over 50 have osteoporosis and another 44 million have low bone density placing them at increased risk of breaking a bone and developing osteoporosis. RSVP recruits and trains volunteer instructors to lead Bone Builders classes at several different community sites throughout the area.

 

Who can participate: Almost anyone! It’s not too soon for any adult to work to prevent osteoporosis and improve their balance. AmeriCorps Seniors/RSVP requires four documents to be completed before you participate including Medical Clearance from your doctor and a Medical Survey in addition to the usual waivers. All of these forms are held in confidence by AmeriCorps Senior/RSVP. NPAA will have you sign a waiver when you come to the clubhouse.

 

Cost to participate: There is no fee for the Bone Builders program. As with all NPAA activities at the NPAA clubhouse, a small activity fee is collected to help defray the costs of maintaining the NPAA facility: $1 /session for NPAA members and $5/session for non-NPAA members.

 

When and Where: This program will be offered at the NPAA Clubhouse 654 104th Ave N on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday 9:30-10:30am starting May 23, 2022

 

Do I need to sign up: No! Having your forms completed and with you will allow you to start the first time you arrive. The required forms will also be available at the NPAA Clubhouse.

 

Feel free to share this information with your family and friends. We hope to see you building bones with Bone Builders at NPAA soon!
