Benefits of Functional Fitness Training for Older Adults
Functional fitness training focuses on exercises that prepare the body for real-life movements and activities. For older adults, this type of training is particularly valuable as it helps maintain independence and makes everyday tasks easier.
Regular participation in functional fitness classes like Golden Group can help:
- Improve balance and reduce fall risk
- Enhance mobility and flexibility
- Build strength for everyday activities
- Boost cardiovascular health
- Provide social connection in a supportive community
The circuit-style approach means exercises can be modified to suit individual needs, making it accessible while still providing effective results. Group training also offers motivation and accountability that many find helpful for maintaining a consistent exercise routine.
For many Kiwis, these classes provide the perfect balance of guidance from qualified instructors and the enjoyment of exercising with others in a similar life stage. The functional movements practiced in class—like squats, reaches, and balance exercises—directly translate to improved performance in daily activities.
