As we get older, our health and well-being become priority, but it may not be as easy to complete exercises and workout as it once was. Physical exercise carries many benefits for the body that not only will help you to stay stronger and healthier but can also help to ease symptoms and pain from certain chronic medical conditions where a positive impact can be shown for individuals suffering with cholesterol issues, diabetes, arthritis, Parkinson’s disease and stroke recovery.
At First Class, we take your health very seriously where we assess your needs to build a tailored diet and fitness plan that can make a huge difference in your life. Our senior fitness programs are much different to regular ones as we focus on how we can best incorporate exercise that works with any injuries, illnesses or diseases you may have while providing you with motivation, detailed instruction and accountability. Our senior fitness programs include areas of exercise that will target your posture, strength, agility, balance and flexibility where our qualified and expert personal trainers can carry out these regimes directly in your home!
Why Choose a Personal Trainer as a Senior?
Your body is a temple and should be treated as such. Walking into the gym can be daunting or intimidating, especially as a senior where you may lose motivation or confidence to complete your workouts by yourself. With an at home personal trainer, you will be given guidance and personal training during a time that is suitable for your lifestyle with exercises that are appropriate for your age, body and health, in your home.
You can be assured that when you work with our personal trainers you will be given the most appropriate exercises and training to boost your immune system, ease the symptoms of any medical conditions you may have and remain healthy in your lifestyle to improve the quality of your life. Our in-home personal trainers will help you to feel strong as they work with you to improve your health and mobility so you may remain as active as you can during your day-to-day routine. By working with your lifestyle and health needs, your personal trainer will develop a personalized fitness and diet program that will help you to build your confidence, develop a stronger immune system and maintain good health.
Benefits of an In-Home Personal Trainer for Seniors
There are many benefits to hiring an in-home personal trainer including safety, age-appropriate exercises, one on one training as well as improved mobility and better health against chronic diseases. Before beginning any type of exercise or tailoring a plan, your trainer will take note of your medical history and any issues you may be facing that can be alleviated through fitness. By considering your age, the condition of your body and your lifestyle, our in-home personal trainer will assess the best form of exercise and diet that will work for you.
As we get older, we may be limited in the type of exercises that we are able to carry out as we face unique challenges that younger people may not have. Without a trainer, you may run the risk of completing exercises incorrectly where it is important to avoid further injury, especially at a delicate age. Our trainers are experts in creating age-appropriate exercises that target areas such as balance, coordination, strength and mobility to address your specific needs. By focusing on the technique and form of each well-rounded exercise, your trainer will accommodate your needs by helping you to safely carry out each workout during your session so they may be performed to the best of your ability with maximum results.
Our personal trainers are fully dedicated to you and your needs during each and every session where they will motivate you and hold you accountable for your health. We understand that staying motivated can be extremely difficult, especially when you are elderly where it is extremely important for trainers to provide motivation and consistency for you to feel confident when completing each exercise. The long-term guidance you will be provided with by your personal trainer will allow you to develop skills, knowledge and motivation to exercise effectively on your own.
Working with a personal trainer not only provides you with motivation, guidance and age-appropriate exercises but also a diet and workout plan that will prevent chronic diseases and alleviate any symptoms from conditions you may have. Where seniors may find themselves having been inactive for some time, it is proved that long-term physical exercise is a medicine for older adults. With an in-home personal trainer, exercise can become a powerful disease prevention tool to avoid diseases such as diabetes, obesity, heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis and even arthritis.
Hiring an in-home personal trainer can be life changing and significantly improve your quality of life with increased mobility, strength and motivation as well as the enhanced health benefits for prevention of chronic diseases. Our personal trainers want you to feel fully confident during your workouts and will do everything they can to make you as comfortable as you can be, starting with training in your home rather than the gym during a time that is suitable for you. For your golden years, we want you to take advantage of the benefits when working with a personal trainer to allow you to live your life how you want to and spend it with the people you love.
