Free fitness clinics offered in Mt. Clemens

Good Form Walking Clinics -- where participants learn principles to help them run or walk easier, faster and healthier – will be offered free at McLaren Macomb in Mt. Clemens on Friday, Feb. 7 and Friday, March 28.

Both events will run from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. at McLaren Macomb, 1000 Harrington Blvd., Mt. Clemens. Free parking is available in the out-patient parking lot at the east end of the hospital.

For many, walking and running -- the two most common and accessible forms of exercise – are often painful; but they don’t have to be. Trainers from the Playmakers Fitness Foundation will teach participants the four simple principles of good form.

Space is limited. To reserve a spot for one of these sessions, call 1-877-926-8300 at least two days prior to the event.

The clinics are sponsored by AARP Michigan, McLaren Macomb and Playmakers Fitness Foundation.
