JACKIE O'S STRENGTH TRAINING WORKOUT

Exercise for Every Stage of a Woman’s Life.

Strength Training promotes good health and defends against the aging process! Our exercise methods include:

Strength Training
We specialize in full-body strength training that can be done with minimal equipment at home, in the gym or on the road, conveniently and efficiently. We make it more of a sport by using a variety of equipment – free weights, toning and stability balls, stretch bands and tubes.

Functional Fitness
Our programs feature exercises that train your body in functional fitness, movement patterns that reinforce the way you perform your daily activities. The “4 for Life” exercises pictured here provide a basis for good body mechanics and a foundation for multi-joint exercises that strengthen the body. (click on image for details)

Unique Programs
We create innovative routines drawing from a wide range of exercises, including classic strength training, yoga and Pilates. We offer you the choice of programs that suit your mood and your starting level of fitness, as well as the variety to challenge yourself and keep your workouts fresh.

Strength Training benefits you at every decade.

At 20: A 20-year-old woman who does not lift weights will lose about 6 pounds of muscle and gain 5 pounds of fat by age 50.

At 30: By age 30 you’ve achieved your peak bone mass, the most bone density you’ll have in your lifetime.

At 40: At about age 40, most women start to lose bone and muscle mass causing a decrease in metabolism of about 3% every decade.

At 50: The average weight gain during perimenopause is 10 pounds.

At 60: In your 60’s the loss of muscle fibers causes you to slow down, lose strength and vigor.

At 70: In the U.S. 2/3 of women over the age of 75 can’t lift 10 pounds.

You’re never too old for strength training! Contact Joan to develop a fitness program customized just for you.
