Set yourself new targets at 50

Most of our clients who have been through this, openly admit to discovering energy levels that they have not had for many, many years, and feeling so much healthier and younger. Indeed the most remarkable improvements of all our clients are made in this age group.

We also have many clients over 50 who have exercised regularly but realise that they are not realising their full potential or are experiencing problems with recurring injuries. This is because they are exercising incorrectly and need professional guidance. New targets can be set, and new goals achieved that you may have thought were out of reach. You may be 50, but massive improvements to your fitness can still be made.

You will be amazed by how quickly strength and endurance can be improved as well as balance, posture and flexibility.

An initial assessment is made and a realistic programme is scheduled to fit around your own commitments which may well be an already hectic business and personal timetable. But a minimum schedule of 2/3 sessions of one hour each per week are needed to see real rewards. After a few weeks considerable improvements are usually experienced; and for most, things just keep getting better.

Initial assessment of fitness levels

The initial assessment of fitness levels will give our trainers an idea of where the client is currently at and what progress we can make together.

Identification of goals

Talking through what you want to achieve from training at White Room Fitness a series of small, sensible, and achievable goals will be devised. Once reached, new goals can be set.

Posture and flexibility enhancements

Using the devised core training and stretching exercises, posture and flexibility will be dramatically improved, making everyday activities easier and making those aches and pains a thing of the past.

Core strength exercises

Strengthening the 'core muscles' of the abdominals, glutes and lower back muscles is one of the best ways to rehabilitate injures and keep them away. In later life the lower back becomes a problem area, keeping the core strong will mean that won’t become a problem.

Jog, walk and run routines

If jogging, walking or running is a hobby or something you would like to achieve but have never been fit enough to do, White Room Fitness can help. We can plan a programme that will have you reaching your target in a safe way.

Upper and lower body work

Working both upper and lower body using free weights and resistance machines, a perfectly balanced programme is achieved whilst meeting your targets.

Body sculpting

Focusing on the whole body, sculpting and firming is essential for training over 50's. A firm body with the health benefits of fighting off osteoporosis will mean you look better, but will also provide your body with potentially life saving training.

Dietary advice

After consulting with a White Room personal trainer, a sensible, achievable eating plan will be devised just for you that will give you extra energy and provide you with the platform to achieve your goals.

Weight loss

If weight loss is your goal, then White Room can help you achieve it. By integrating intelligent training whilst educating on the weight benefits of good nutrition, weight loss struggles can be a thing of the past.

Special stretching techniques

As we get older, it is only natural that the muscles become stiffer. White Room trainers understand the need to adapt stretching techniques to work the muscles in a different way and increase your flexibility whilst easing muscle tension in the body.

Strength and conditioning plus flexibility

Using intelligent resistance training, we condition the body and muscles to be stronger and to gain flexibility through using a full range of movement and specific stretches tailored to your needs and to target any areas of particular stiffness.
