Senior Fitness
Personal training is not one size fits all. The type of training and the care that needs to be taken when training changes as we age. Not every trainer has the experience and knowledge to help seniors improve the areas of their physical fitness and do so safely.
My training program for you will be designed to help you maintain an active lifestyle. Restorative exercise will help you will gain energy and get stronger. You'll reduce your pain and lower your blood pressure. You'll prevent or delay chronic illnesses which are commonly associated with inactivity such as diabetes or heart disease, as well as the other limitless health improvements that come along with an active lifestyle and optimal physical health.
I will help you:
Strengthen: to build muscle mass
Stronger muscles will help you move safely and efficiently so you can continue the activities you enjoy. You will be able to keep walking, biking, playing with your family and grandchildren, and living independently. Muscle strength also preserves bone density to prevent osteoporosis and improves balance at any age.
Aerobic: to improve cardiovascular performance
When you feel tired or like you have little energy it is easy for inactivity to set in. Regular aerobic exercise increases your ability to take in and use oxygen, which then produces energy and increases stamina. With improved endurance, your health wont be something that stops you from living as active of a life as you want. It also reduces the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, diabetes, and obesity.
Balance: to stand strong and prevent falls
With over a decade of experience in fall prevention, I have developed unique balance training programs and equipment designed to improve muscle strength, stamina, flexibility, and good sensory feedback. Improvement in balance helps to significantly reduce your risk of falling or injury.
Flexibility: to improve posture and joint motion
My flexibility training programs are designed to improve posture and range of motion. Good posture when standing and walking also helps prevent falls, and improved flexibility helps rid the body of stiffness and makes moving and staying active easier.
