My name is Jade and throughout my career, I have witnessed first-hand the barriers that prevent people from living a healthy lifestyle. The main thing I’ve noticed is people start to become more sedentary with age.
I want to motivate and educate seniors about the benefits of exercise and a healthy lifestyle. I aim to persuade people that retiring to the couch is no longer a viable option if they want to live the best life they can.
Throughout this book, you will learn how to improve your strength, stability, and flexibility in older age.
• I’ll start by covering what strength training is and why it's so important for seniors. You'll learn how strength training benefits us physically and mentally in the short and long term.
• Next, you'll learn about motivation and discipline. I'll cover what to do to get physically and mentally prepared for the journey ahead.
• I'll cover how different lifestyle practices can aid your journey to a healthy lifestyle. In this section, I will go over nutrition, sleep, and mindset.
• Once we're done with the basics, I'll move onto the exercises. I've listed a range of exercises that target multiple joints, upper body, lower body, core, and mobility. Each exercise has a detailed description, training tip, modifications, and advancements.
• After covering the exercises, you'll see a 12-week progressive strength training plan. The 12-week plan can be broken into three phases and each phase will have a different focus so we can progress with intention.
• Finally, I'll end with a section on sustainability and progression of your training beyond the 12 weeks.
With this book in your hands, you will have a clear go-to guide to not only get fit but stay healthy and learn new workouts you have never heard of before. This book will motivate you to develop an on-going practice of working out.
