 NEW YORK (AP) - Marshall Kahn attends a gym with yoga, tai chi and Pilates classes, weight training and treadmills. It also has a driving simulator, where members can keep their skills from deteriorating.
The gym, Nifty After Fifty, is one of many fitness centers popping up around the country aimed at serving older clients.
"I'm 80, my wife is 48. So I have to stay fit," said Kahn, who signed up at one of the company's four Los Angeles locations earlier this year and pays about $50 per month to work out three times a week. "I joined a gym about three or four years ago, and I didn't like it at my age — it was young, noisy and frenetic. They were doing all these crazy things I couldn't participate in. Here, I'm not intimidated. I'm more inclined to go."
