Blog: fit20 recommend that you ‘use it or lose it’

In the latest of our series of blogs by fit20, an innovative exercise and fitness session provider, based in Hipperholme, they look at why consistency matters and why it’s important to “use it or lose it”!

Consistency is Key!

As the saying goes, ‘use it or lose it’. Want to be as strong aged 65 as you were at 50?  Sounds pretty good right? We know, regardless of age or gender, the strength you gain with fit20 is maintained by continuing your weekly sessions.

Caroline Abrahams, Director of Age UK says; ‘Even small amounts of physical activity can make a difference to a person’s health, lowering the risk of developing serious conditions such as heart disease, stroke, and certain cancers. Along with lowering risks of dementia and maintaining thinking skills in later life, performing exercises that improve muscle strength can also reduce the risk of falls by improving posture, coordination, and balance.’

fit20 is great for keeping you consistent and here are 5 of the reasons why:

  1. 20 Minutes! It’s sustainable, we don’t ask for hours of your life. Just 1 session, once a week!
  2. Appointment! You schedule it into your life at a time that works for you, no changing clothes, no need to shower, no queuing, no waiting. You’re in, you’ve done your session and you can carry on with your day.
  3. Personal trainer! This means you get the most out of your sessions. So, when you’re here you’re working hard, in a safe and consistent way.
  4. Positive change! We keep track of your progress, you can see this for yourself. Our high-tech machines track the tempo, rhythm, and range of your movements during each exercise. You see your progress every week with your quality scores, and you feel the benefits physically.
  5. Motivation! We’ve all been there, you make a promise to yourself, eat less, exercise more, and when you break that you feel rubbish. Well with us you don’t break your promise to yourself. Our personal trainers keep you motivated and the easy to schedule sessions mean our members stick to their weekly training routine.

Our personal trainers play a key role in consistency and keeping you safe. Having a personal trainer can be immensely beneficial for anyone. As we age, we lose muscle and this leads to mobility, metabolic and general health problems. But with the right training and approach, anyone of any age can build muscle. We have clients that are complete beginners and those who are seasoned gym goers or take part in other sports.

If you’re worried about ageing and losing muscle fit20 can help you.
