Oak Hammock residents have 24/7 access to an extensive Fitness and Wellness Center that was renovated and refurbished in 2025. The Center includes two indoor pools (exercise and lap) and a hot tub, an exercise room with state-of-the-art machines and a well-equipped room for exercise classes conducted by experienced and well-trained staff.
The 2025 renovations included ten new air-propelled HUR exercise machines. Developed by Helsinki University Research and manufactured in Finland, these machines are specifically designed for seniors, supporting strength, cardio and balance training. Each user controls resistance with a personalized magnetic wristband, allowing for a safe and customized workout. The user’s wristband automatically loads personalized training information and adjusts settings on each machine. The system also records and tracks each resident’s activity and progress. The machine room also includes various cardio machines and free weights.
The fitness calendar includes many scheduled activities and classes, some of which occur multiple times per week:
- Aquacise class
- Aqua yoga/water walking
- Boxing for life
- Cardio moves
- Floor Pilates
- Full body stretch
- Gentle yoga flow

Additionally, Oak Hammock residents and team members are deeply involved in community outreach and actively supporting awareness initiatives and participating in causes such as the Walk to End Alzheimer’s and Gainesville Senior Games.
