Full disclosure: I have not been a life-long gym-goer. Earlier in life I preferred to stay active with recreational activities and work outside. But in my early 60s, I noticed some of my friends going to Ames Fitness Center, and decided to try a small group class focused on strength and balance. To my surprise, I found I could learn and do something new – and actually enjoy it! I have come to value training for the benefits it brings me in improved flexibility, balance, strength, and cardiovascular ability. Importantly, staying consistent with my training helps me stay active outside doing both the things I want to do for fun, and have to do for work or home maintenance. My goals now as a trainer is to provide ways to guide and encourage others to experience the benefits of strength and balance exercise. We are not too old to learn new things, and we must do so because the world still needs us. Aim to “stay in the game” and Feel the Best You Can Be.
