Most of the residents at Nazareth struggle with serious mental health issues, a by-product of that is that 80% of our residents smoke and are sedentary, although we have acquired basic gym equipment, such as an exercise bicycle and treadmill it is a constant struggle for our residents to improve their physical health without professional support. Knowing that numerous studies have concluded that exercise helps prevent and improve high blood pressure, diabetes, arthritis, anxiety and depression, we started the’ The Health & Hope’ in November 2013.. This was designed in conjunction with Sam Maniatis President and Founder of Total Home Training, the focus is a walking program and light resistant training presently twice weekly for 24 weeks. Some of the results we are measuring are reduction in weight and inches, increased flexibility, and reduction in medication and smoking. Also a less tangible measure is the relationship development for our resident and the trainer. The walking program is also advantageous for a few of our residents who cannot walk alone due to complications of their mental illness (paranoia).
