Free Online Fitness Session

for older adults

Jordan’s session 24 February 2021

Led by Jordan, this 30-minute fitness session is for over 60s who are looking to work on their strength and conditioning.

In today’s session, you’ll have the opportunity to challenge yourself using the AMRAP format: ‘As Many Rounds As Possible’. Against a timed clock, you’ll be working through three exercises for a set amount of reps. At the same time, you’ll be aiming to do as many rounds as possible. You’ll be encouraged to work at your own pace and to rest whenever you need to. With the option to try and match your score from the previous round, you’ll work against the timed clock three times. The three movements consist of a functional exercise, a strength exercise and a cardiovascular exercise. Together these will help improve your strength and conditioning, making you stronger, fitter and ready to take on everyday tasks.

We’d love to have your comments on this 30-minute fitness session. Don’t forget to subscribe to the Fit For Good YouTube Channel! To help us continue to provide FREE sessions, please do consider donating to Fit For Good.

What is Fit For Good?

Research supports the fact that regular exercise is vital to good health and helps control the ageing process. Fit For Good is a programme specifically designed to help men and women over 60, of all abilities. It allows them to take more control over how they age and enjoy becoming more mobile, more stable and more socially active.

Although we all understand that exercise is essential for living well into old age, it’s hard to find a way to make it part of daily life. Fit For Good sessions aim to help you enjoy healthier, happier ageing. Our professional trainers guide you. You gain strength, balance, flexibility and stamina during each workout. You work at your own pace and your own ability – although it’s always good to push yourself just slightly to gain maximum benefit.

MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR SESSION

Fit For Good online sessions are a convenient, enjoyable way of improving your fitness and helping to increase your strength, stability and balance.

To make the most of each session:

  • Position your computer, laptop, iPad or phone on a stable surface near where you will be working. If you can get YouTube on your television, that's another option
  • Check the floor where you are exercising is not slippery and that there is nothing you could trip over
  • Wear loose clothing and comfortable trainers or shoes
  • Keep a glass or bottle of water to hand to ensure you stay hydrated
  • Have a chair or other stable object to hold onto if necessary
  • Place your weights - whether they are actual dumbbells, cans of beans, bottles of water or whatever works for you - where you can easily reach them, but won't trip over them
  • Exercise within your comfort zone, pausing the video whenever you need to rest or hydrate
  • Play background music if it helps you relax
