Elderly and Aged Care Services
Looking for a personal trainer who understands the needs of older people? As we age, personal training becomes less about getting ripped or running marathons and more about maintaining muscle mass, functional strength, balance, energy levels, and most of all independence.
​
We train at your home and we bring all the necessary equipment to improve your general fitness, mobility, strength and vitality. We also offer personal training at gyms and health clubs at aged care residencies.
How We Can Help
We provide friendly and professional support to older adults from beginners to former athletes to those wanting to recover more quickly from a setback or injury.
Tailored Exercise Programs
Our personal trainers design an exercise program tailored to their specific needs and goals. They take into account any medical conditions, limitations, or injuries and create a safe and effective program that will help improve strength, balance, and mobility.
Safety and Proper Form
Our personal trainers ensure that exercises and movements are performed safely and with proper form. This reduces the risk of injury and ensure that the exercises are effective in achieving the desired results.
Improve Balance and Stability
Our personal trainers provide motivation and accountability to ensure they stick to their exercise program. They provide encouragement, support, and guidance to help stay on track and achieve their goals.
Benefits of strength training for older adults
There are many benefits of strength training, especially once you are over 50, including:
​
-
Reduced risk of heart disease and stroke: Regular exercise helps lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and improve cardiovascular health.
-
Improve strength and function: As we age, we naturally lose muscle mass, which can lead to a decrease in strength and mobility. Training helps slow down this process by building and maintaining muscle mass.
-
Reduced risk of osteoporosis: Weight-bearing exercises, such as strength training, increases bone mineral density.
-
Reduced risk of dementia: Regular exercise has been shown to improve brain function and cognitive function to reduce the risk of developing certain neurological conditions.
-
Alleviate depression and anxiety: Regular exercise has been shown to have a positive impact on mental health and helps reduce the symptoms of mental health conditions.
-
Reduced risk of falls and injuries: Regular exercise, including stretching and balance exercises, helps improve balance and flexibility.
