Why It’s Important to Get and Stay Active

In the final installment of his “Active Grandparent Hypothesis” video series, trainer Steve Messman highlights the work of another one of his clients. At 78 years old, Ron is keeping active to hike, remain stable, and have more stamina. With clients of his ranging from 65 to 82, he’s seen first-hand the progress anyone can make with just a little hard work.

“Many of my customers have come to me exclaiming how they can suddenly feel real muscles in their legs,” Steve says in the video. “You can definitely get stronger… It takes work. It takes sweat. It takes dedication.”

By taking Steve’s advice our bodies can remain strong and agile well into our golden years!
