Let's Talk About Age and Exercise: A Note Just for You

Hey there,

I've heard it more times than I can count: "I need a coach who understands what it's like to work out at my age." It feels like your age should dictate everything about how you exercise, right? Well, I'm here to share a little secret with you: that's not how things work. And believe me, this is good news!

It's All About You, Not Just Your Birth Year

Here's the deal—everyone's body is unique. Your needs, goals, and capabilities are influenced by a whole lot more than just the year you were born. I've worked with folks who share your birth year but have wildly different stories when it comes to fitness. Some are just starting their exercise journey, while others have been active their whole life. That's why we ditch the one-size-fits-all approach, especially when it comes to age.

Age is Just a Number (Really)

Your body's ability to adapt and grow stronger doesn't clock out once you hit a certain age. Whether you're 25 or 65, the right exercise program can work wonders. It's all about finding what works for you. I've seen it firsthand: individuals crushing their fitness goals, finding new strengths, and sometimes even surprising themselves, all because their program was tailored to their personal needs, not their age.

Real People, Real Success

Over the years, I've seen some incredible stories unfold, like Ralph, who started strength training in his 60s after a ski accident and was able to stop using his cane after a few months. Or Kris, at 50, thought she'd never ski again after ACL surgery – 90 days later, she had a new confidence and was ready for the mountain that ski season. Their secret? A personalized approach that looked at their abilities, health, and lifestyle to create something that was just right for them.

It's More Than Just Physical

There's something else that matters a lot in this journey—how you feel about it. Staying motivated, confident, and mentally engaged makes a huge difference. It’s more than just the physical exercises. It's about creating a space where you feel supported and understood no matter what year you were born in. 

Here's the Bottom Line

Your age doesn't define what you can do in the gym or anywhere else. What really matters is finding an approach to fitness that's as unique as you are—having a physical practice that will fit into any lifestyle and schedule. Trust me, it's never too late to start, improve, or transform so you can live stronger, longer. Let's leave the age thing at the door and focus on what's really important—you.
