Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Who is allowed to participate in Healthy4Him?
Any gender, any size, any age 14+ are encouraged to participate.


Is childcare provided at Healthy4Him?
Unfortunately, childcare is currently not provided at Healthy4Him.


What workout programs are used at Healthy4Him?
We usually start out with a low-impact cardio workout in DVD format from the Walk at Home program. The workouts can be modified for ALL fitness levels.

Sometimes after the cardio workout (which lasts between 30 and 60 minutes), we stay and do a yoga workout, some kickboxing, or a 10-minute abs segment. It is a flexible group and there is always something for everyone :-)


How often does Healthy4Himmeet?
Healthy4Him currently meets once per week.


When does Healthy4Him meet?
Healthy4Him currently meets on Saturday mornings starting at 9am.


How long are the workouts?
The length will vary slightly from week to week; workouts will usually take under or a little over an hour. Occasionally we may offer a "boot camp" challenge, where the overall length of both workouts will increase by 15-30 minutes... this will usually happen around holidays.


Where does Healthy4Him meet?
Healthy4Him meets at River Run Christian Church
in the 4th and 5th grade room in the children's wing. Look for the open doors :-)



What do I need to bring to Healthy4Him?
Generally, you will need the following items for your workout:
  • modest athletic attire
  • comfortable athletic shoes
  • a water bottle (you can fill it up at home or in the church lobby)
  • a towel if desired
  • light handweights or weighted gloves if desired
  • A GOOD ATTITUDE!
  • possibly a workout mat (for yoga or abs)


Do I have to be in shape to participate in Healthy4Him?
No!! The ministry is here for anyone! We hope you will be inspired to ask questions about how to begin a healthy lifestyle. All workouts can be modified to any fitness level.


Do I have to be a Christian to participate in Healthy4Him? Can't I just work out?
No, you do not have to be a Christian and YES, you CAN just come work out. River Run and the Healthy4Him ministry is about connecting people, and we would love to have you. We're interested in meeting all types of people, and everyone (ages 14+) is welcome to attend. We won't preach to you, call you during dinner, or bug you to come to church on Sunday, that's a promise!


What if the workout is too easy?
All workouts can be modified to any fitness level.


Why does Healthy4Him use DVD workouts?
Using DVD workouts allows everyone to exercise fully at their own risk and removes liability from the ministry should someone get injured while performing the exercise. Don't worry, though, should you actually get injured (unlikely), we will take care of you, but we cannot be held responsible for any injuries incurred.
