FORT RUCKER, Ala. -- Hectic schedules often leave little time for fitness, but Fort Rucker's physical fitness centers offer a service to help make a healthier, active lifestyle more attainable.

Well Beats, a service billed as a virtual presentation and live experience, offers a wide range of formats customizable with various intensity levels and time lengths through video instruction, according to Lori Ciranni, Fort Rucker sports, fitness and aquatics manager.

"Not everyone can spend one or two hours in the gym," Ciranni said. "We understand life can be busy, especially for military families. Well Beats allows patrons to find the format that works best for their fitness level and schedule.

"Participants can select the intensity level that works best for them," she added. "If you haven't been to the gym or worked out in a while, then Well Beats can help you get back into a routine. Maybe you are in good shape and simply want to push yourself to the next fitness level? This program can help you reach that goal."

People of all levels of fitness can find just the right program to fit their desired goals and challenges, Ciranni said.

"There really is something here for everyone," she said. "The program offers formats for many different age groups. It covers activities ranging from yoga and dance to weight training and cardio. If you are looking for a new fitness routine or a way to get back in shape, this program can help you find a method that works for you."

According to Ciranni, the program offers more than a dozen different fitness formats customizable to fit 20, 35 and 50-minute time frames. Formats will be updated quarterly.

"The ability to select different time lengths for the workout will allow everyone to find the time for fitness and to decide what works best for their individual goals," she said.

Group fitness schedules are available at the front desk of both PFCs or online at http://rucker.armymwr.com/us/rucker/programs/fitness-centers/.
