How To Start Exercising As You Age—Even If Pain Or Mobility
Is Holding You Back

Here’s everything you need to know & do to get stronger, more mobile & have better balance—while finally getting rid of those troublesome aches & pains.

The pain that shoots through your hip…

... the stiffness in your shoulders…

... the struggle to lift yourself off the couch…

... the loss of stability when walking...

These are just some of the problems most people think are a natural part of aging. 

But that’s a false assumption. 

As we age there is some natural muscle loss, but...

The real reason we end up struggling to do so many things—from carrying our groceries to walking through the park—is that we stop using our muscles as much, causing us to lose way more muscle than is natural. 

This is how The Downwards Cycle of Capability starts.

9  out of 10 aging adults are stuck in The Downwards Cycle of Capability

Are you one of them?

Strong muscles & bones are what keeps everything in your body in place & working properly. The cycle begins when that little bit of muscle and bone density loss allows some slight aches & pains to slip in. 

That’s when people start adapting how they:

  • walk
  • move
  • lift
  • bend, or 
  • reach 

... to avoid the pain. 

But when you do this, you’re not using your muscles properly and start to lose them while also pulling your body out of alignment—all of which causes even worse pain. 

But this cycle CAN be reversed to lessen your pain, improve your mobility, & build the muscle you need to function your best every single day.

These are the 3 components to fitness for older adults...

... and they’re the key to REVERSING the Cycle of Capability

Getting fit & healthy when you’re older is not the same as when you were younger. It’s not as simple as just “popping out for a run” or “pumping some iron” in the gym.

As you age, you need to…

  1. Fix the areas that are causing you pain

  2. Unlock the stiffness that’s preventing your body from moving as it should

  3. Build muscle

And you need to do all 3 at the same time because each part is like a puzzle piece. If 1 is missing, your body won’t be able to fully succeed at doing the other parts. 

But HOW can you...

 ... when it feels like your body can't do what you need it to do to fix the problem?

The secret to successfully getting stronger, fitter & stopping the pain... is exercises that are short, gentle & meet your body where it's actually at

Here's how to get stronger, more mobile & make everyday tasks easier—
while turning pain into freedom

The Better5 All Access Membership
