In this episode of Fit For Life Radio, Gary and Will break down the Coastal Strength & Fitness 2025 training program—and how it aligns with the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans.

They cover why only 1 in 5 Americans meet the recommended activity levels, the long list of health benefits that come from doing so, and how Coastal’s program structure is designed to make it as easy and effective as possible for adults—especially those in Newport News and the surrounding area—to finally build strength, boost cardio, and stay consistent.
