Nifty after Fifty

What do I like about this gym? We're all adults over 50, we all join to exercise. Here we find ourselves made welcome and comfortable with our personal issues like me using a walker. Here's a place that you can exercise in a small friendly atmosphere. Rene and Angelic, at the front desk, give me a warm welcome and send me home with a friendly "goodnight". They are kind, warm hearted and greet me warmly. You'll see manager Jon there once in a while as he makes his rounds through the various locations. Fernando handles everything in the gym room. He's wonderful. He's the personal trainer on each machine; he makes sure that you know how to use each machine properly. He gave me a machine routine according to what I wanted to focus on. We change or add on machines as my needs or wants change. Fernando also tallies the points and runs after the ball when we play "sit-down volleyball". We have a LOT of fun. He's invaluable. There is a movie of the month with freshly popped popcorn. Fun. Anyway, the entire place is kept clean; bottles of hand sanitizer and paper towels are placed in several places around the gym and hand sanitizer is readily available in the welcome area. There is a small room where jigsaw puzzles are worked on by various people throughout the weeks. Help yourself. The gym is part of the company Encore. In another room is doctor ordered "physical therapy". You'll find both Quan and Dolores professional, knowledgeable and friendly. They are focused on your recovery and well-being. I've been there several times after surgeries and other injuries. Nifty-After-Fifty is small and will give you the personalized assistance needed. One of our members, who brightens every room she enters, just turned 80! She brought us cookies to celebrate. (You can bring chocolates.) Come join me. Check it out. I'm there most Tuesdays and Thursdays going through my exercise routine and enjoying the friendly conversation and playing "sit down volleyball". We'll add a chair for you. There's also a morning game on Mondays and Fridays. Tell Rene, Angelic and Fernando that I sent you.

I love going to the gym and the staff are so polite and the ladies at the front desk are the sweetest and Fernando is the best with helping us with our workouts, he looks out for us all.

The staff is excellent but my Physical therapist didn't work on the area that i really needed help on. He felt his way was better then my needs and pain, if he just pay more attention to my area of complaint, i would have stood, but i truly needed 2 separate sections done, or 2 hrs of One for back, and Neck and shoulders.. that insurance pays for two separate areas or actually 3 i was getting 2 out 3 but Rush in a hr time. But what really bother me was being kick me out in cold pouring rain while they closed for lunch, after i meantion I'm waiting for Uber. Remember its Nifty after 50.. So only ages older then that can come. Maybe stagger lunch hours or have common decency to allow a person handycap and over 50, allowence to be left in warth a few minutes during there lunch Hr, and maybe 🤔 let them stay warm especially in that freezing cold rain that hit. Its a clean and nice place just needed a couple adjustments. Wish it work out! 😪 Hopefully this review and some adjustments will truly help our next seniors.

Very nice place for seniors to get in a little exercise. Very clean. Fernando is very helpful. He is always willing to help. Machines are geared toward seniors.

I am coming here for therapy but not too comfortable they keep more than 3 people at times when I was told it was one per hour. If continue seeing this I will have to STOP coming, this means they don't care for the safety of the patients. And I notice they don't hand sanitation every time they walk away from you or when they grab things. If you are planning to come here take your own precautions, because they don't care if you get the virus. God continue to bless us

Oh yeah, that's where I go to workout.

My mom goes for some therapy and they take good care of her.

I WAS GIVEN A PRESCRIPTION BY MY DOCTOR FOR 6 SESSIONS FOR PHYSICAL THERAPY FOR A NECK INJURY I SUFFERED FROM OVER EXERTION FROM EXERCISE. I AM PLEASED WITH THE SERVICE I AM RECEIVING FRON THE PHYSICAL THERAPIST. VERY COURTEOUS & PROFESSIONAL SERVICES. THE CARING ATTITUDE I RECEIVE FROM THESE PEOPLE IS AN ADDED BENEFIT TOWARDS MY RECOVERY
