Here at the YMCA we believe that the health and fitness of the Tucson community is of utmost importance in this fast-moving world.  We offer a wide array of exercise and weight training equipment, along with knowledgeable staff who can provide you with the tools you need to start (and stay!) on the path to wellness.

The YMCA of Southern Arizona has 4 full service branches; Lighthouse, Lohse, Northwest and Ott. Each of these facilities offers up-to-date treadmills, elliptical machines, and stationary bikes along with other cardio equipment.  Free weights and weight training machines are also available -along with basketball courts and, at our Ott Family YMCA, a skate park.  For help in beginning your health and fitness journey, speak with someone at your YMCA about scheduling time with a Wellness Specialist!

Personal Fitness Program
When you join the YMCA of Southern Arizona, we offer you a free orientation to assess your fitness needs and goals. After your orientation we will create a fitness program that is structured specifically for you.  Throughout the progression of your routine we will update your personalized program in order to make sure that you meet your goals.  A 12 week personalized program is included with your membership.

Fitlinxx
Would you like to be able to keep track of your health and wellness progress to keep you motivated and excited about your workouts?  Our Fitlinxx system can transform your workouts and help you achieve your goals!  Member workout information is stored in the computer database located at each branch location and, once a member is in the system, they can track their progress and even manually log activities that were done outside of the Y.  Your Wellness and Fitness instructors will also be able to monitor these workouts so as to better serve each member individually.  The best part is, this program is FREE with a paid membership!  Learn more at your branch's customized Fitlinxx website (Lighthouse, Lohse, Northwest or Ott).
