Training

In this section is an online workout menu, comprising videos of exercises, with written instructions, which combine to make an all-over workout.

The training exercises are all very traditional-style exercises, very effective and which can be performed at home or in a gym. Many of the exercises are body-weight exercises, but a few use some wieghts. Always start with a weight that is too light for you and work up to heavier weights gradually.

 

There are several exercise programmes which have been designed as a General Conditioning work-out, a Lower-Body workout, an Upper-Body workout and a Cardio workout. Or you can choose to follow your own programme and combine the exercises as you see fit.

 

There is also a whole series of "warm-down" stretches to be done after exercising to minimise aches and pains, and to increase flexibility and suppleness.

 

Also in this section are articles about training for Silver Greys. These will provide help getting fit, and keeping fit, how to avoid injury, etc.

 

If you are new to training and working out, you might find it useful and informative to read our Guide to Working Out.
