Your heart structure can change as you age…

There is an increase in collagen and decrease in elastin which both contribute to a stiffening of the blood vessels. This can increase blood pressure, so making healthy lifestyle choices becomes increasingly important as you age.

By age 40, bone mass starts decreasing more rapidly and can lead to osteoporosis or fractures if not handled properly. Luckily, the best treatments are following a healthy diet and regular exercise!

We can help you to achieve both!

Take another look at your plate today!

Do you have enough protein? When you pass age 50, your body’s need for protein increases to maintain muscle!

The recommended amount for this age group is 1.0-1.2 g protein/ kg body weight per day. If you are very physically active or have a chronic condition, this value increases to 1.2-1.5 g protein/ kg body weight per day.

As you age, insulin resistance becomes a common risk, increasing the risk for type 2 diabetes.

The body’s ability to control the amount of glucose (sugar) in the blood is impaired, as it cannot enter the other body’s cells as easily.

A lack of physical activity can expedite this process, making it even more important to keep your body moving!

As we all have gotten more connected with our phones and computers, its important that we remember the importance of our posture!

Hyperkyphosis can result from an overuse of technology without a focus of good posture. This can result in weak back muscles and decreased balance, leading to an increased risk of falls in elderly individuals.

With our unique system, we test and analyze over 40 different areas and risk factors involved in the aging process. These include mobility, strength, heart function, and body composition analysis to get an overall picture of your health, to monitor progress, and know how we can best help you!

We customize every program to fit YOUR goals & needs!

It can be easy to take for granted our flexibility and how useful it is in our daily tasks! Without these abilities, being able to do simple tasks like bending your arm to brush your teeth, extending your shoulder when changing your clothes, or bending over to grab something off the floor would be near impossible chores.

Especially after age 70, there are significant drop offs in these values so it becomes increasingly important to continue to stretch regularly.

At Be40Strong, we recognize the importance of flexibility and implement it into each program. After each exercise we have you stretch to reduce muscle soreness and work to increase your range of motion!

Do you or anyone you know suffer from these conditions?

We can help! Each program is designed specifically for you, with your needs and goals in mind.

Increase in fall risk can be greatly tied to decreased muscle strength & walking speed. It can be one of the biggest indicators of continuing independence in the aging population.

A study done in nursing home residents found that the group with an added progressive resistance exercise training program over 10 weeks experienced an increase in 113% in muscle strength & function, gait velocity of 12%, and stair-climbing power of 28%.

These are great stats to show the importance of resistance-based training and its role in keeping you independent as you age!
