Physical decline throughout our lives is not inevitable
Many people associate declines in strength and balance with aging and assume these changes are inevitable. While some individuals may experience a perceived decline in musculoskeletal health from their 30s onwards, it’s crucial to recognise that this pattern isn’t an inherent consequence of normal aging. Rather, it is often a reflection of lifestyle choices and behaviours adopted over time. The typical trajectory involves initial signs of change in the 30s, gradual loss of muscle mass and bone density in the 40s, accelerated changes in the 50s, and increased vulnerability in the 60s and beyond. However, this pattern is not inevitable, and it is not solely dictated by the passage of time.

What to Expect/The Process:
Why is maintaining your strength and balance vital?
Ensuring strength and balance throughout our lifetime is crucial for sustaining an active and fulfilling lifestyle. As we age, maintaining muscular strength and equilibrium becomes increasingly vital to prevent falls, injuries, and the gradual decline in mobility.
Neglecting these factors can lead to a host of problems, including reduced bone density, compromised posture, and heightened susceptibility to injuries. Without proper attention to strength and balance, individuals may experience limitations in their daily activities, hindered athletic performance, and a higher risk of musculoskeletal issues.
Muscular strength, especially in the core and lower body, contributes to better balance and stability. This reduces the likelihood of losing balance and experiencing a fall, particularly during activities that involve changes in direction or uneven surfaces.
Strong muscles help support and stabilise joints. This is particularly important for joints like the knees and hips, where maintaining strength can alleviate stress and reduce the risk of joint-related issues.
Endurance in muscles, joints, and bones is essential for sustaining physical activities over time. Improved muscle endurance supports extended periods of walking, standing, and other daily activities, reducing fatigue and the likelihood of falls.
Maintaining bone strength through weight-bearing exercises and resistance training helps enhance bone density and thus contributes to a lower risk of osteopenia or osteoporosis. Stronger bones are more resistant to fractures in the event of a fall, reducing the severity of potential injuries.
Our comprehensive assessment empowers you with the knowledge and exercises needed to safeguard your body's stability, promoting a lifetime of optimal health and well-being. Invest in your future by scheduling your Strength & Balance MOT today – because a stronger, more balanced you is a healthier you.
