Weak bones and loose teeth associated with old age? Take a look at the 73-year-old Arnold Schwarzenegger and think again.
One of the biggest myths about senior citizens is that they cannot workout and maintain a good physique. Gyms and physical exercise are in no way meant just for the young. In today’s fast-paced world, the ones usually left out are senior citizens. We are here to show how Primus cares about senior fitness and caters to their needs. While conventional fitness routines are not recommended, seniors require thoughtful fitness programs that make sense for their bodies.
Benefits of Senior Fitness:
- Mental health: Seniors at Primus enter the gates leaving behind all stress to lead a happy life. The release of endorphins when partaking in the fitness activities at Primus helps keep mental health in check.
- Heart health: Seniors are often susceptible to heart conditions. Physical exercise is proven to be beneficial for cardiovascular health.
- Strength: Old age is associated with weak bones and fall risks. The senior fitness care at Primus helps create a workout regime that builds all the strength you’ll need.
- Lower risk of dementia: Multiple studies suggest that seniors who are physically active have a lesser need for memory care.
Understanding the benefits of senior fitness, we have catered our amenities specifically for it:
- Hydro-pneumatic gym: Unlike regular gyms, our gym here at Primus is hydro-pneumatic making it ideal for seniors. Fitness activities at Primus are a space for socialising, a healthy way to kill time, and stress-busting.
