Photo by Masonic Village at Sewickley resident Pam Braden Chuck Clark has always led a very active lifestyle, and thanks to Masonic Village at Sewickley, he can continue to focus on living well at his own pace. He credits his good health at age 83 to physical activity. He initially leaped into his fitness journey when he was a gymnast in high school, and he’s been conscious of health and wellness ever since.
“I think exercise is very important in keeping our bodies and minds fit. It allows us to reach these ages that we’re at,” Chuck said.

Chuck and his wife, Patricia, have lived at Masonic Village at Sewickley for over three years, and during this time, they’ve had the opportunity to develop personalized regimes at the Barley Wellness Center. “When I first started going up to our wellness center, the people working there helped me get into a pattern. I go in and walk on the treadmill for 15 minutes at two-and-a-half miles per hour,” Chuck said. “They have program sheets for us, so when we complete things, they check them off. It’s nice having a record of what we’ve done and when.”
