As we get older the body does start to deteriorate, and without regular exercise the body can start to suffer from a slower metabolism, leading to back pain, obesity, diabetes, heart disease and other degenerative problems. That’s the bad news out of the way! If you are of a vintage age, it isn’t too late to build your fitness back up.
Cardio Work – One of the first ports of call for your personal trainer will be to help develop your cardio fitness as a lack of exercise over time can dramatically reduce this aspect of your health. This is a benefit to your mobility in later life.
Flexibility and Balance – With weight training and stretching you can help reduce stiffness and injury in the joints, as well as improving motion and mobility. Balance exercises help you avoid injury from slips and falls.
Strength and Conditioning – Not only for the elderly, this type of resistance training helps you to maintain strength and muscle mass, increasing your mobility and endurance.
