Description
Give your class members the challenge they need to get stronger, stay independent and keep progressing.
Strength is one of the most important components of healthy ageing, supporting everyday function, mobility, balance, confidence and independence. This practical CPD equips instructors with a whole new set of strength-based exercises and circuit ideas that can be used to progress existing class members or broaden the appeal to reach more men who may be particularly interested in strength, functional fitness and measurable progress.
You’ll learn how to set up and deliver strength circuits that feel structured, purposeful and achievable for older adults, with options to adapt exercises for different ability levels. This CPD is ideal for instructors who want to add more challenge to their classes, support class members who are ready to progress, and develop additional strength-focused sessions within their community.
What instructors will get from the CPD
By the end of the session, learners will be able to:
- understand why strength training is essential for healthy ageing
- deliver a wider range of strength-based exercises for older adults
- set up safe, structured and effective circuit-style sessions

I thoroughly enjoyed the CPD and meeting fellow instructors in person. Sandra and Julie were amazing as always. I loved hearing a familiar word from many instructors, Rewarding, we find it so rewarding, when we see and hear the positive change to so many of our class members. How many jobs roles can offer you so much satisfaction whilst you benefit keeping yourself fit, healthy and happy ?
