Total Body Strength

Service Description

*BRAND NEW* Class Details Our new Total Body Strength class will help you build strength from head to toe. Resistance training is extremely important to keep muscles strong to prevent injuries. As we age we lose muscle tissue faster, so it's important to pay attention to it and incorporate strength training into your fitness regimen. Muscles support your joints and provide stability for your body. A Few Health Benefits of Resistance Training: * Improved muscle strength and tone – to protect your joints from injury. * Maintaining flexibility and balance, which can help you remain independent as you age. * Weight management and increased muscle-to-fat ratio – as you gain muscle, your body burns more kilojoules when at rest. * May help reduce or prevent cognitive decline in older people. * Greater stamina – as you grow stronger, you won’t get tired as easily. * Improved posture. * Decreased risk of injury. * Increased bone density and strength and reduced risk of osteoporosis. * Improved sense of wellbeing – resistance training may boost your self-confidence, and improve your body image and your mood. * Improved sleep and avoidance of insomnia.
