Personal trainer an option for baby boomers looking to stay healthy

Tweet

Connie Festo Lafond, a certified Pilates mat instructor and trainer, recently wrote in Massachusetts' Wakefield Observer that personal trainers can benefit baby boomers and those on the verge of senior citizen status.

After 40, physiological changes occur in bodies of all types, which can lead to stiff joints, longer recovery times and less elasticity in tendons and ligaments, in addition to a loss of muscle mass and bone density. A personal trainer can develop a regimen that combats these occurrences, Lafond wrote.

“No matter what area you look to, be it heart disease, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, research shows that being physically fit into your senior years will keep you healthier and active longer,” Cedric Bryant, Ph.D., chief exercise physiologist at the American Council on Exercise, told the news source.

Baby boomers and senior citizens looking to add years onto their lives will want to adopt healthy lifestyle choices and exercise programs as soon as possible. Additionally, they will want to care for the financial future of loved ones and dependents with an effective life insurance policy. Comparing life insurance quotes is an effective tool in obtaining the best policy at the right price.
