Heritage Community Fitness

Heritage Community Fitness Healthy People | Healthy Communities We believe healthy people create healthy communities. What does “integrative health” mean to us? Your health is our care.

Heritage Community Fitness is a locally owned Carleton Place integrative health facility that combines a state-of-the-art fitness centre, group fitness classes, and physical rehabilitation services under one roof. It’s a new approach that formed through the belief that good health is a combination of factors – one that includes both fitness and rehabilitation. Fitness
We opened our fitness centre

in 2007 to create an environment that encourages people of all abilities to take an active role in nurturing good health. Our 22,000-square-foot fitness centre includes cardio equipment, a full inventory of free weights and strength-training equipment, fitness accessories, and group fitness classes. We have something for everyone. Rehabilitation
Our Collaborative Care Centre has evolved since opening in 2014 to include 14 health care specialties. These health care services include chiropractic, concussion management, counselling, exercise rehabilitation, naturopathy, nutritional services, physiotherapy, paediatric physiotherapy, pelvic floor therapy, prenatal massage therapy, registered massage therapy, and TMJ therapy. Our practitioners collaborate to ensure clients receive the best care possible. You’ll often see our team with clients in our fitness centre creating rehabilitation plans to support sustainable recovery. We are the largest integrative health facility in Ontario to offer this combination of complementary services. You can also find us at:

Fit Club for Girls starts in just a few weeks!

Designed for girls ages 9 to 12 and led by Kerry McCormick, this eight-week after-school program combines games and active play with conversations about general health, nutrition, mind/body awareness, and body image.

We want girls to be strong, confident people with the tools to nurture healthy self-esteem. We created Fit Club for Girls to create an atmosphere where girls can connect, express themselves, and celebrate what makes them unique. We want girls to know they can define their own ideas of success and beauty, and to feel comfortable with themselves and confident in their abilities.

Proper Form: Chest Press

The chest press strengthens your chest, shoulders, and triceps, helping you build the upper-body strength needed for everyday pushing movements like opening heavy doors, pushing a stroller or shopping cart, and carrying.

👉 Set-up
Choose a weight that feels challenging while allowing you to maintain proper form throughout the movement.
Adjust the seat so the handles will be at mid-chest level when your hands are on the grips.

👉 Proper Form
Keep your elbows slightly bent at the end of the movement.
Shoulders should stay down and relaxed.
Maintain control throughout the full range of motion.

🎯 Movement Cues
Sit with your back and head supported against the pad.
Push the foot pedal to bring the handles forward into the starting position. Once the handles are in place, position your hands with a neutral wrist and maintain a comfortable elbow position.
Place your feet securely on the footrests and keep them stable throughout the movement.
Keep your chest lifted, core engaged, and shoulders down and back throughout the movement.
Press the handles forward in a smooth, controlled motion while keeping your wrists straight and elbows pointed downward.
Control the return of the handles after each repetition.

After your final repetition, press the pedal forward to safely release the handles back to the starting position before exiting the machine.

The Fourth Trimester is a four-week program designed to support and empower you as you rebuild strength, restore confidence, and reconnect with your body after childbirth.

The series offers a unique opportunity to prioritize your own health and well-being while bonding with your little one in a welcoming, supportive environment alongside other new moms.

Led by Kerry McCormick, each 60-minute session combines progressive strength training with functional movement to help you safely regain strength, improve endurance, and build confidence in everyday movement. Using a variety of equipment—including resistance bands, dumbbells, bodyweight exercises, and other training tools—you'll develop a strong foundation while progressing at a pace that's right for you.

Optional: For an additional level of personalized support, you may book a physiotherapy assessment before the program begins. Following the assessment, your physiotherapist and Kerry will collaborate on a customized exercise plan designed specifically for you. Your individualized plan will guide your progress throughout each class. Moms must be at least six weeks postpartum before the assessment.

The series runs 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. on Wednesdays beginning October 7. Please drop by our front desk or call us to register.

The cost of the series is $156 (program only) or $286 (program plus physiotherapy component -- check with your insurance provider as the package option can be covered under some extended health plans).
