SilverSneakers Get Moving Today with the Help of SilverSneakers® There is no magic pill when it comes to wellness. If you want to keep moving, you have to keep moving. Mobility will never come in the form of a pill, or a shot, or any genetic intervention. It comes from personal desire. It comes from determination. It comes from dedication. It comes from positive lifestyle modification through the help of programs like SilverSneakers. The leader of the pack is Richard Ashworth, president and CEO of Tivity Health, the parent company of SilverSneakers. Its mission is simple: “It's to keep moving,” Ashworth said. “We have over 16 million members who have access to community fitness programs, to mental stimulation programs, and to social connection programs. And we think the key to longevity is to keep moving, to keep engaging, and to keep mentally stimulating yourself.”
