As we gracefully age, it becomes increasingly important to prioritize our physical well-being. In the quest for a vibrant and fulfilling life, staying active is key. However, sometimes we might struggle to find the motivation to maintain good physical habits. Sometimes, we simply just have no idea where to start!
Longevity is a 40 minute exercise circuit class focused on full body strength, coordination and balance. It challenges participants physically but also fosters a sense of community, promoting holistic well-being for those navigating the golden years. With the help of a physiotherapist, even in a group class we can tailor each exercise specific to your ability.
We have listed FIVE benefits of our Circuit Classes below!
Muscle Strength:
- The class incorporates resistance training to strengthen major muscle groups, combating the natural decline in muscle mass that comes with aging.
- Increased muscle strength not only enhances daily activities but also contributes to better metabolism and bone health.
Balance and Coordination:
- The circuit includes exercises that challenge and improve balance, reducing the risk of falls – a significant concern for older individuals.
- Enhanced coordination promotes better proprioception, making movements more fluid and controlled.
Flexibility and Joint Health:
- Gentle stretching exercises contribute to improved flexibility and joint mobility, preventing stiffness and discomfort.
- Flexible joints are crucial for maintaining an active lifestyle and engaging in various physical activities.
Emotional Well-Being Boost:
- Engage in a positive and uplifting environment that extends beyond the physical aspects of the class.
- Longevity Lifters is a stress-free zone where you can release endorphins, improve your mood, and build confidence through the sense of accomplishment gained from mastering new exercises.
