senior fit

Ultimately, as we grow older, time with our kids and grand children become more and more precious. A stronger mind and body means more meaningful time with the ones we love. 

We all need 6 essentials for well being as a child, an adolescent, an adult, and as senior citizens. At every stage of our life, these 6 essentials will always serve a purpose. 

The Six Essentials

Resistance Training- This type of exercise strengthens bones and connective tissue such as ligaments and tendons. It's the number one activity to prevent osteoporosis. ​

Proprioception Training- This fitness training develops the ability for the brain to know where its limbs are in space. Balance and coordination exercises stimulate the brains ability to prevent falls, as well as reducing the risk of dementia. 

Cardiovascular Training- These are exercises that will elevate the heart rate as muscles throughout the body require more oxygen. The heart and lungs become stronger while the increased circulation delivers more nutrients to all the cells in the body. The end result is better equipped body to reduce the chance of heart disease and strokes.

Stretching- A stretching routine will enhance the body's ability to maintain mobility, posture, as well as helping to reduce arthritis. 

Social Interaction- Group fitness classes are a great way to smile, laugh, and encourage new friends. The power of group interaction has long been known to improve happiness and motivation in toddlers to seniors, and everyone in between.

Nutrition- A diet consisting of foods that support a healthy immune system and rich in micro-nutrients is necessary for keeping the mind sharp, the body strong, and helping to prevent disease.

Senior Fit is an exercise class at Bodies in Motion that is centered around these Six Essentials.  ​​
