What Strength Training Can Do For Seniors
Personal training in Newport Beach incorporates strength
training for those seeking the benefits. Strength training is an
important part of every fitness program, regardless of your fitness
goals and regardless of your age. There are many health advantages for
seniors who engage in strength training; to name a few…
- Stronger bones. Weight-bearing exercises increase bone
density (and so fight conditions like osteoporosis), right the wrongs
of aging and inactivity, and make bones stronger, more able to support
you and less likely to break.
- Increased muscle mass. Muscle mass is known to decrease
with age. Fight the decrease by engaging in strength training exercise.
You'll be stronger, more stable, more flexible, have more endurance,
fall less, and function better overall, maintaining your lifestyle and
independence longer. Our personal trainers in Newport Beach specialize
in helping increase muscle mass.
- Heart health. Cardiovascular exercise isn't all you can do
to improve heart condition and fight off one of the number one killers.
Leaner muscles (achieved through exercise and strength training) lower
body fat and strengthen the heart.
- Lower blood pressure. Blood pressure rates at rest are
decreased through strength training.
- Reduce pain. The pain associated with many of the illnesses
associated with aging are reduced through the fitness and muscle
function gained by strength training. In part this is the result of
disease prevention and in part it is a strategy for managing symptoms
by increasing strength and flexibility. Arthritis, osteoporosis, joint
pain, and back pain have all seen a reduction in pain through strength
training.
- Prevent and treat chronic disease. Many of the ailments
associated with aging can be better managed and sometimes completely
prevented by maintaining overall muscle and body strength. In addition
to heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis (previously mentioned, but
worth repeating), and arthritis all respond to strength training.
- Lean and mean. No need to be mean if you don't want to (not
necessary with personal training in Newport Beach), but you can stay
thinner by strength training. Muscle increases metabolism and burns
more calories and fat, and so helps ward-off weight gain.
- Rest easier. Sleep disorders like insomnia improve as
strength and fitness improves. Strength training is known to help
seniors as they experience changes in sleep patterns.
- Improve your mood. In part this is due to improved sleep,
but strength training also helps seniors stabilize mood and decreases
the incidence of depression.
Clearly, seniors stand to gain a lot from strength training.
As the body changes with age, though, the body's ability and response
to strength training changes, too; It is very important to seek
professional advice through personal training in Newport Beach when
starting a strength training program as a senior. If you have never
trained for strength in the past, a personal trainer can help you learn
how to exercise properly and at a level that is both safe and
beneficial for you.
If you have been a strength trainer in the past, personal
training in Newport Beach can help you make accommodations for your
current age and fitness level, introduce you to new, more appropriate
exercises and equipment, and ensure that you are performing ingrained
exercises properly. For everyone, a strength trainer will monitor
progress and adjust your strength training program as you go.
