Successful Aging YXE

Give your Dad the gift of Functional Fitness this year. 25% off all packages!

Functional Fitness is more than just in the gym. It's helping people engage (or maintain) their ability to participate in their hobbies and increase their life satisfaction (and longevity 😉). We can train things like balance, core strength, vestibular system, reaction times, etc. like I did with my client below so he could keep riding horses and go hiking without the fear of falling and possible injury.

I am more than willing to join your loved one right where they want to be to keep them engaged, challenged, and thrilled by life. I want everyone to live with the least amount of pain, disease, and as much joy as freaking possible. That's why I do what I do. . . Because everyone deserves to age successfully!

Here is my client Jenny being interviewed by Igor, who I have subcontracted for since 2020.

Jenny’s Results
Over her time with us, here are the improvements in Jenny’s bone density:

· Her lumbar spine improved by 3.1%

· Her femoral neck improved by 4.7%

· Her total hip improved by 5%

This is equivalent to turning back the clock by about 2 years. Yes, there’s more work to do, but considering Jenny achieved this despite significant setbacks, this is pretty good. How do those bone density improvements translate to her T-scores?
​

· Her lumbar spine T-score improved from -4.2 to -4.0

· Her femoral neck improved from -2.7 to -2.5

· Her total hip improved from -2.5 to -2.3 (that took her from the osteoporosis range to the osteopenia range)

And a major side benefit: her cholesterol improved dramatically. Although Jenny came to us for help with osteoporosis, she also had high cholesterol (yeah, despite not being overweight, and doing yoga, plus walking on a regular basis). As a result, here are the changes in her cholesterol levels:

· Her total cholesterol went from 230 mg/dl (6.0 mmol/l) to 170 mg/dl (4.4 mmol/l)

· Her LDL cholesterol went from 142 mg/dl (3.7 mmol/l) to 91 mg/dl (2.4 mmol/l)

· Her HDL cholesterol stayed more or less the same, since it was good to begin with

​

This is all without any medications. Big surprise to her – not a surprise to us, since strength training the right way can decrease total and LDL cholesterol by about 25-30%.

Oh, and one more bonus: Jenny gained about 4-5 pounds of muscle, and unsurprisingly, improved her balance.
