4 Fitness Tips Every Adult Over 40 Should Know
Getting older doesn't mean slowing down — it means training smarter.�If you're 40+, these are the four training principles that will help you stay strong, pain-free, and energised for life.
1. Lifting Weights Is a Must
From your 30s onward, you naturally lose muscle and bone density — but strength training helps you fight back.�Lifting weights builds lean muscle, protects your joints, and supports your balance and metabolism.�👉 In our Small Group Customised Training, strength is the foundation — tailored to your level, history, and goals.
2. More Isn’t Better — Smarter Is
You don’t need to train every day to see results. Just 3 well-structured, focused sessions per week can improve your strength, mobility, energy, and confidence.�👉 Our programs are built for busy adults — efficient, effective, and easy to stick to long term.
3. Joint Stability & Core Strength Are Non-Negotiable
In your 40s and beyond, muscle imbalances and poor movement patterns can catch up with you.�Training your glutes, hips, and core improves posture, reduces injury risk, and keeps your joints happy.�👉 Every session includes corrective work to help you move well now and age with confidence.
4. Boost VO₂ Max in Under 15 Minutes
VO₂ max is one of the strongest indicators of longevity. And the best part? You can improve it with short, sharp bursts of high-effort cardio.�Just 10–12 minutes of intervals in heart rate zones 4–5, twice a week, makes a real difference.�👉 Our sessions blend strength and conditioning to keep your heart — and your body — working for life.
