💪Why Does Increasing Your Muscle Strength Matter?
When your muscles don't have adequate strength you can experience so many problems with your physical health; increased body fat, weight gain & slow metabolism, weak muscles = poor posture leading to back, hip, knee & neck issues/pain, increased risk of injuries & falls, poor blood sugar control, joint pain, stiffness, low energy.....

I'm teaching 5 Strength Training Technique Masterclasses at First Place Fitness in September.
Learn exercises, correct form, safe technique, how to adapt, progress, what weight is best for you to use.
Get personal attention & feedback in my 90 minute Masterclass.

The benefits of having stronger muscles are a major factor for aging well & physical & mental health...
Here's My Top 5 Benefits
1- Boosts Your Metabolism-
More muscle mass burns more calories & aids with fat loss goals & weight management.
2- Improved Insulin Sensitivity-
Helps regulate blood sugar & lowers the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
3- Joint Support-
Strong muscles protect joints & reduce the risk of injury or pain.
4- Better Bone Health-
Strength Training promotes increased bone density,
helping to prevent osteoporosis.
5- Slows The Aging Process-
Maintain your mobility, independence & quality of life.
Makes everyday activities easier, better posture, balance,
increases your ability to deal with stress, enhances speed, agility
& reaction times.

➡️From Pain to Independence: Moira's Quick Journey of Recovery Through Chair Exercise- For anyone dealing with knee, hip, back problems...
Facing surgery...
Managing symptoms to avoid surgery...
Recovering from surgery...
✈️ Share with anyone you know that needs this motivation...
Moira went for surgery late in the day on 1st July 2025...
Shopping in the supermarket 10 days after...
Walked back into classes 14 days after...
"Quick Recovery & Minimal Painkillers Tracy!
I put my recovery 100% down to the groundwork done in your classes"...
🟨 MOIRA'S JOURNEY FROM WAITING LIST TO WALKING WELL:
I was put on a waiting list in 2023. I was told to ‘get fit’ for the op so I joined Tracy’s chair exercise classes January 2024.
Click 🔗 to see Chair Exercises Classes here ⬇️
https://www.tracydixonmindandbodyfit.com/chair-based-exercise-class-kendal
🟨 FEELING THE BENEFITS:
My hip was a problem; it also affected my knee & my general well-being.
From the start of me attending classes on Tuesday & Friday each week,
I started to feel the benefits.
The range of movements covered over all joints gave me a real balance & to how I started to feel.
Working with the ball & resistance bands strengthened & stabilized my knees & helped my hip a lot.
My hip movement remained good & minimized pain so that I hardly used any pain killers!
🟨 VALUABLE & PRACTICAL LESSONS:
Tracy worked on our core strength & balance.
We learnt how to lift & support our own body weight.
This was the most beneficial of all exercises.
Lifting oneself up from chairs, beds & being able to move about with that level of independence was liberating!
That lesson alone was the one I valued most.
I believe it this ought to be taught prior to all knee & hip surgeries.
On top of all the wonderful practical skills Tracy teaches in her classes, Tracy herself has a positive attitude. Her happy, informative classes are a joy & testament to my quick recovery.
I had my operation late 1st July- home on the 2nd.
Walking around shopping 10 days later
Back in classes with full participation 15th July.
I’m so pleased- Thank you Tracy,
Your support & classes are wonderful & have made such a difference.
I can’t recommend your classes highly enough.
- Moira

What Moira has achieved is really inspiring.
Thank you so much for sharing it with us.
It will resonate & touch so many people.
Planting a seed for what is possible with the right support & exercises for prehab & rehab & what that means for recovery & quality of life.

“What if I told you one workout could ease joint pain, rehabilitate muscular weaknesses
& strengthen your core -all at once? It’s not too good to be true. It’s Pilates!
I can 100% vouch for this personally & so can countless other people I have taught, supported & helped in classes & 1-1 over the years.. (you can see how in case studies on my web-site 🔗below)
Pilates is a smart workout class choice giving you a lot of mind & body benefits in one hour.
I’ve been teaching Pilates since 2000. It isn’t just hype.
🧠Here’s the science bit:
✅It improves core strength- key for posture & injury prevention
✅Reduces lower back & joint pain- studies show real relief
✅Boosts flexibility & mobility- great for every age
✅Enhance mental health- reduces stress & improves mood
✅It’s low impact with high impact results!- ideal for different fitness levels & capabilities
