Most of us know a family member that has experienced the ageing process. It can be difficult for the individual and family members. Not knowing how to help a person through this process can be troubling. The Forever 51 program will help seniors achieve successful ageing. Alex attended Lindenwood University where he received his bachelors in exercise science and health and wellness. During his internship with an independent living facility he felt inspired by his clients success and new found ability. Clients increased strength, balance, flexibility, and improved their independence. Some were able to reduce dependence on walking aids, and reduce fall risk. Several clients reported less depression during the program too! Being physically and mentally ready for the challenges that ageing may bring starts with exercise!
