Combative Fitness SA for Seniors

While Combative Fitness predominantly focuses on the different styles of Martial Arts i.e. boxing, Kickboxing, Karate and Stick fighting, as a qualified Personal Trainer Combative Fitness also offers programs to all levels of fitness and ages.

Senior adults tend to believe that weight bearing exercises may cause injury and therefore stay away from gyms. However, research has shown that weight training can increase bone mass, which lowers the risk of developing osteoporosis and fractures. Strength training adds more weight to the skeleton by building muscle; this stimulates the bones to strengthen and grow to bear the heavier load on the muscles.

It is the only type of exercise that can slow, and even reverse, the declines in muscle mass, bone density, and strength that were once considered inevitable consequences of aging senior adult. Weights provide so much resistance that muscles gain strength from only a few movements. Resistance is usually provided by free weights or machines, but individuals can also get stronger by exercising in water.

It is also well known that once achieved, much of the gain can be maintained through weight-bearing endurance activities such as brisk walking, stair climbing, and aerobics. Resistance exercise can also help older people live independently by giving them the strength they need to perform everyday tasks. There is even evidence that resistance exercise can help people sleep better and can improve the mood of mildly to moderately depressed individuals. And because proper strength training doesn't apply stress directly to joints, it is ideal for people with arthritis; indeed, rheumatologists often recommend it.

Although it cannot reverse arthritic changes, lifting weights helps alleviate symptoms by strengthening the muscles, tendons, and ligaments that surround joints.

This program is offered on a one on one basis or small groups of 5 - 10 people.
