Strong at Sixty Plus

What this session offers

A small group for older adults focused on the things that actually preserve independence: leg strength, grip, balance and getting up off the floor. The pace is unhurried and the loading is real — the biggest mistake in training older adults is going too light. Everything has a seated or supported version and nobody is asked to do anything they are not ready for. Medical conditions welcome and worked around, not ignored.

Ilse Vermeulen

Strength and Movement Coach

I train people who have decided, usually somewhere in their thirties or forties, that they would like to be strong. Not lean, not shredded. Strong, in the sense of being able to carry things, get off the floor easily, and still be doing this at seventy. That means barbells for some people and bands and bodyweight for others, and I genuinely do not mind which. What matters is progressive load, consistent attendance, and technique that holds up when you are tired. I am blunt about the fact that this is slow. Strength is one of the few things in wellness with an unambiguous evidence base and an unambiguous requirement: you have to keep turning up.
