💪🏽 Why strength training matters at every age?

Strength training isn’t just about lifting heavy or building muscle… it’s about building a body that lasts.

• In younger years, it helps develop strong bones, coordination, and confidence

• In adulthood, it preserves muscle mass, supports metabolism, and protects joints

• As we age, it plays a key role in maintaining balance, independence, and reducing fall risk

At every stage of life, strength training:

✔ Improves bone density
✔ Supports joint health and posture
✔ Helps manage chronic conditions like diabetes and heart disease
✔ Enhances mental health, energy, and overall quality of life

Cardio helps you live longer while strength training helps you live better!! 🤩

And it’s never too early (or too late) to start 🤷🏽‍♀️

💪🏽 VIV’S GUIDE • ‘Returning to exercise after a period of off training’

1. Start below where you left off (~50-70% of max loading) and progress gradually.

2. Warm up with purpose and extend warm up if necessary (e.g., mobility and ‘activation’ exercises to meet session demands).

3. Prioritise movement patterns (e.g. movement control vs early loading) to avoid risk of injury.

4. Expect muscle soreness in the first few weeks. This is normal for neural adaptions and muscle growth. However, if you experience sharp pain, swelling, joint pain, seek assistance.

5. Recovery is important - “Listen to your body”. Sleep, nutrition, and hydration are key for recover and growth.

6. Set goals to help motivation.

➕ See an EP if you require an individualised exercise program for a safe and successful return to exercise & to meet your health or fitness goals.
