Silver Lining Senior Program

About

The Program

Our senior fitness program focuses on the population aged 65+. Our trainers are specialized in working with individuals looking to become more active in their everyday lives. This program also provides guided assistance for clients who may suffer from various medical conditions such as Arthritis or Osteoporosis, have
physical and mental limitations such as being a fall risk or suffering from dementia, and individuals who are going through physical therapy or have been released from therapy to work out on their own. In this program, you will improve the following:

Stability & Balance

As we grow older, we lose physical strength, bone density, and our sense of balance deteriorates which can increase the risk of falling. To decrease these incidences and others from occurring, stability is a crucial part of your workout regimen.

Mobility

Factors leading to immobility in older adults are low physical activity, obesity, impaired strength, and balance are some examples. Developing more mobility allows seniors to move around more freely and with ease without the risk of injury.

Flexibility

Staying limber and flexible becomes more and more important as we age. Flexibility increases our range of motion so we can complete everyday tasks easily like bending down to tie our shoes or reaching to get a dish from a shelf.

Core Strength

Creating a strong core helps stabilize the body, providing better balance and posture. There are many benefits to having a strong core such as preventing falls, decreased back pain, helping maintain independence, etc.

What To Expect During A Fundamental Assessment

This assessment will be at the beginning of your session. The main purpose for this is for the trainer to get a better understanding of the client’s fitness level. In four separate parts, the trainer will assist the client in demonstrating specific, guided movements and exercises with each part. All exercises and movements performed during this assessment should be at a beginner’s level. Modifications for specific clients’ needs should be made accordingly.

Practice standing on one foot (assistance as needed)

Squatting just below 90 degrees, using the TRX straps or bench

Holding a forearm plank (modified as needed)

Three to four stretches that will assess your flexibility
