Additional Information

ABOUT THE COURSE: Exercise and physical activities provide a wide range of health benefits with no upper age limit and are integral to maintaining health and wellbeing at all stages of life. Despite this - participation rates in older populations are extremely low. Personal trainers should see this as an opportunity to broaden their market - offer a valuable service as well as positively contribute to community health. This course provides an introduction to what makes training older adults unique - how to motivate and support them as a PT - as well as tailored training guidelines for testing and programming.
