Program details

Ageing is a natural process that impacts our lives in many ways. We naturally experience gradual reductions in bone mineral density (BMD), Muscle Atrophy (muscle loss) and cognitive function just to name few. These changes have I dramatic impact on our quality of life and potentially life expectancy.

Exercise has been proven to play a critical role in managing and potentially reversing these elements, whilst minimizing many associated comorbidities. The evidence clearly illustrates that a combination of Resistance, Balance, Cardiovascular and mobility exercise is critical throughout our lives.

This is the reason for the development of our own Activ8 Ageing Group Class.

Exercise physiologists & Physiotherapists will administer all sessions. Patients are required to book an Initial Assessment before attending the group sessions, which can be done online via this link (https://rb.gy/nsooma), by contacting our club at (02) 8544 0487 or info@activ8.club
