Functional Fitness with Aging

Your first paragraph ...My cell phone started buzzing; it was my Dad calling. He was eighty years old and calling to talk about his shoulder and back pain. He wanted me to explain some exercises over the phone, so he could loosen up and get some sleep.

My Dad was the greatest; growing up, he was our baseball coach! As the years went by, functional fitness was not part of his day; during his later years, he was sedentary.

The last part of his life was in an assisted living facility. It was during this time that he had two serious falls. One was in the middle of his living room, and the next was in the bathtub; he was helpless until help finally arrived.

I'm a seventy-year-old Functional Fitness Specialist, enabling clients over the age of fifty to enjoy the activities they always wanted to do in life.

What is Functional Fitness? It’s a fitness regimen centered around the kind of movements you do every day.

                                   ***************************************************************

My athletic experience includes playing college football to the level of signing a professional contract in the Canadian Football League.

My competitive experience and education have always been assets for me as a coach, trainer, and Functional Fitness Specialist. Understanding the intensity of what it was like to be a high-level athlete is unique. My degree in Psychology, Physical Education, and Coaching has been the foundation of my coaching business.

As an aging fitness coach, my passion is to inspire you to stay active, be consistent, and excel in your activities, enabling you to have the quality of life you deserve!

My approach is to make fitness training fun and educational, carefully moving and aligning your load joints (ankles, knees, hips, and shoulders) before progressing you to a slightly more vigorous pace.  

You would feel fabulous if I could inspire you to change, achieve a goal, or solve a problem! The improvement in your confidence, self-esteem, and functional fitness would enable you to take care of yourself for many more years, rather than someone taking care of you in a facility.

How much would that be worth to you and your loved ones?

How would you like to hike in the mountains with your children and grandchildren? How would you feel, knowing you could keep your balance and take pride in yourself for having the strength and energy to finish a long walk or workout?

As a Functional Fitness Specialist, I offer you the most innovative balance program in the industry. I will inspire you to change for the better, offering balance, flexibility, and strength routines that will enable you to function, feel great, and do the activities you always wanted to do.

If you have had cancer, stroke, or cognitive decline, we can team up and improve the quality of your life! My aging and fit program includes pain assistance activities and Tai Chi classes that will present meditative-type movements to reduce stress and anxiety!
