Does two hours of strength training a week reduce the risk of dying early? Regular weight training can help you keep fit and strengthen muscles to live longer, research suggests.

From the Times Newspaper ⬇️

Working out during a heatwave is much harder than working out in cooler weather.
Reduce the intensity, keep hydrated, but keep moving slowly😀

Move how you like — stand tall or sit,
A wiggle, a stretch, a tiny bit.
No need to mind what others say,
Your body, your pace, your joyful way.
Every lift, stretch, twist or tap
Still beats dozing in a cosy nap!

REASONS TO COME TO A CLASS 😀

Research findings from safe, social, sustainable exercise that people actually stick with.

Take-home points:

➡️ “Exercise doesn’t just slow ageing – it can turn things around.”
People who kept exercising long-term maintained or even improved fitness compared to what’s normally expected with age.

➡️ “Consistency beats intensity.”
Regular attendance over time mattered more than doing anything extreme or high-impact.

➡️ “Community exercise really works.”
Exercising with others, in a supportive setting, helps people keep moving for longer – and that protects independence.
