Our therapeutic training program includes:
- A research-proven baseline functional assessment to evaluate your current functional status and to observe your movement quality. Good outcomes are the result of an effective exercise prescription; and an effective exercise prescription needs functional assessments to know which areas to target.
- An individualized exercise prescription based on your assessment delivered to you on our app where your progress is tracked in real time. Train online either inside the gym or in the comfort and security of your own home. Your customized balance training routine will be the most effective combination of the physical factors. Research has shown that these exercise domains should be the foundation of every adult’s balance training program.:
- Exercise videos of each exercise displayed in HD that demonstrate the movement with the correct form and posture if you’re not sure how to perform the prescribed exercises.
- Two-way messaging (texting) for support, motivation, to answer questions, provide feedback, and keep you accountable.
It’s important to perform a new exercise program consistently for 12 weeks, so that your body – specifically the CNS (central nervous system), muscles, and metabolic pathways – can adapt to the exercise stimulus.
Your Balance Training Experts
Exciting News! I am very pleased and honored to have recently partnered with Dr. Christian Thompson. We share a lifelong mission to promote mobility, increase longevity, and improve quality of life. I couldn’t be more excited to join forces. Dr. Thompson is a respected professor in the Department of Kinesiology at the University of San Francisco and an affiliate researcher in Neurology at UCSF Medical Center.
He published many scientific articles on exercise program design for older adults in peer-reviewed journals, such as Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, Journal of Aging and Physical Activity, and Journal of Applied Research, and advises leading industry groups, including the Functional Aging Institute. Dr. Thompson’s mobility videos are integrated in my fitness app and will add a well-researched, science-based dimension to your balance training prescription.
Exercise gives you the ability to change the way you age.
