Here at Tennessee Fitness Spa, we still take the time to educate you on safe, effective exercise involving weight training and an assortment of aerobic activities. To maximize results, while avoiding overtraining, we recommend you participate daily in: two aerobic activities, one resistance (weight) training activity, one stretch class, and at least four abs classes per week. To ensure that your exercise preferences and capabilities are met, we provide a wide variety of classes. Class offerings differ slightly from week to week and season to season.

Aqua Abs and Aqua Noodle Workout
These classes alternate daily between focusing on the abdominals and the major muscle groups. (approximately 15 to 30 minutes)

Aqua Aerobics
This class format emphasizes cardiovascular conditioning and toning. It is a great choice for those who enjoy water activities, seniors and physically limited participants. Although the water reduces orthopedic stress on ligaments, tendons, joints, bones and muscles, it is definitely not a “powder puff” workout.
