Recapture Your Youth and Live Life Again

Do you remember what it was like when you were young? In your teens, 20’s and 30’s? You played sports, kicked a ball, went surfing or bike riding and hiked through the bush for days at a time. It was amazing, wasn’t it? You felt alive, you loved what you were doing, and you could have kept going and going.

But then someone told you that all this health and fitness is for young people only and who do you think you are kidding to be able to do all this now that you are over 50? Right? Well, no, they were wrong then and they still are.

With the right mindset and a sensible attitude to your health and fitness, there is every reason to keep going with these things you love as you grow older. Ok, maybe you won’t be running a marathon, or riding the big surf as you once did, but you can maintain the thrill and joy of doing these things into the future if you invest in your body today.

Invest in Your Health as if it were Your Bank Balance

Investing in your health is like investing in your financial well-being.  Investments made over time have a compounding effect. This means that every dollar or hour invested today increases the baseline for what you add in tomorrow, and each day after that.  Just like financial investments, effort invested in your health today will reap real rewards in the future. And when you are over 50, these health investments will provide substantial benefits to you as you grow older.

For people over 50, exercise classes will translate into benefits when you are in your 60’s, 70s or 80s because you will still be able to continue doing the things you love. People who exercise regularly continue to live life to its fullest and these are the people who don’t have any plans for stopping anytime soon. Their goal, and your goal should be to live to reap the benefits of your compounding interest in your health and overall wellbeing.

Exercise Classes for Over 50’s

By updating your views on ageing, body maintenance, and health in your over 50’s years you become the beneficiary of that input as you get older. Research shows how much of what we’ve been taught in recent decades is wrong. That means how you approach fitness needs to change, too. And the best way to start your investment in a healthier you is to attend fitness classes for people over 50.

Health and Fitness is Much More than Just Weight Loss

For some people, exercise is all about weight loss. And indeed, exercise classes may lead to weight loss, but it’s about so much more than that, especially as we get older. In fact, many of us are not at a healthy or unhealthy weight based on the amount of exercise we get or don’t get. For instance, you may know of someone who is very active, yet significantly overweight. Or, you may know people who are at a healthy weight, but don’t attend exercise classes at all. But this doesn’t make them “lucky”.

The truth is, particularly for people over 50 years, exercise, especially exercise classes, is important for many different health outcomes, and those other outcomes become more important as we get older.  

Turn Exercise Classes into an Investment in Your Future

Invest today for the rewards you earn tomorrow and beyond. Starting earlier is always better, and the good news is it’s never too late. Even better news, you don’t have to go it alone. At Renewed After 50, our fitness classes will deliver a wellbeing outcome that will directly benefit you. Our goal is to become your reliable training partner for life and support you in your journey to stay healthy and fit. Remember: grow old but stay young – and keep doing the things you loved to do when you were young.

Investing in your health and wellbeing in your 50’s through exercise classes will not only yield the benefits of avoiding the old-age stereotype, it will also allow you to age gracefully. And the benefits of ageing gracefully go way beyond your physical health and strength – they extend to your social, mental and overall psyche and will become a source of pride that will be visible to all those around you – your family, children and grandchildren, and your friends.

So, when your grandkids ask, “What would like for your birthday, Poppa?” you can reply by saying, “A tennis racket would be nice, thank you darling.”
