Maintain Muscle Mass & Strength
As people age, they naturally experience sarcopenia, or the loss of muscle mass. Strength training helps seniors maintain and even improve muscle strength, allowing them to perform daily activities more easily and independently.
Enhance Bone Density
Regular strength training can increase bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis, a common issue in older adults. Stronger bones help prevent fractures and falls, improving overall quality of life.
Support Balance & Mobility
Strength training improves balance, coordination, and mobility in seniors, reducing the risk of falls and injuries. This increased stability can help seniors stay active and engaged in their daily lives.
Boost Mental Health & Cognitive Function
Participating in strength training can help improve mental health by reducing anxiety, depression, and stress. Additionally, regular exercise has been linked to better cognitive function, which may help delay or prevent age-related cognitive decline.
I help people manage chronic pain through low-impact exercise. I am passionate about disability exercise through pre-surgery & post-rehab strength training. I also design personal programs for weight loss.
