Harmless Stumble

Lifting weights is one of the most powerful tools we have for protecting health.

• It reinforces bones.

• Keeps metabolism firing on all cylinders.

• Prevents falls.

• Lowers risk of chronic diseases.

Every squat, press, row, and weight you carry is putting gentle stress on the skeleton- a great thing!

For older adults, one of the greatest fears is falling.

Falls are the leading cause of injury-related ER visits for people over 65..Once people fall they tend to lose confidence in moving freely.

The best defense is better balance - which is a combination of how quickly we can react, coordination and strength in the lower body and core.

This can be the difference between a harmless stumble and a life-altering fall.

Good news is we can improve strength, coordination and the ability to react faster in as little as 2-3 training sessions a week.

I want you to be able to catch yourself from hitting the pavement if the uneven sidewalk crack jumps up and trips you.

I want you to be able to joust with your grandson (I was at a kids birthday party once and watched a grandpa run up and down a field with his grandson like they were knights).

I want you to be upright, balanced and strong so you are less likely to fall in your older years.

I want you to be an active, strong older citizen - not elderly!
