Humana Sponsors Seniors Fitness Workout To Highlight Need For Physical Activity - Update [HUM]

6/30/2007 7:01:50 PM Humana Inc. (HUM) said Saturday Richard Simmons led the world’s largest senior-workout organized by the company during the 2007 National Senior Games at the Broadbent Arena in the Kentucky Exposition Center.

The event was held during the 2007 National Senior Games to highlight the need for physical activity among seniors, as well as to show them how easy it is to exercise. Simmons designed the workout to show seniors how to incorporate easy moves into their daily routines and not feel discouraged about complicated cardiovascular exercise.

The workout, which was customized by Simmons for this specific event, consisted of aerobic activities and exercises.

Humana said it has developed a fitness book with low-impact exercises to help seniors jump-start their fitness.
