Whether you are young and eager or approaching middle age and beyond, starting an exercise routine has been proven time and time again to add longevity to your health. But, if working out isn’t your bag, maybe learning about the latest physical fitness trends will help motivate you to get going.
• Wearable technology such as fitness trackers, smart watches, heart rate monitors and GPS tracking devices are a must have if you are wanting to get more exercise.
• Strength training with free weights, incorporating the use of barbells, dumbbells and/or kettlebells offer benefits for all ages and skill level.
• Fitness programs for older adults focused on the aging population and their unique needs. Here are some local offerings from the YWCA that are specialized for older adults. Visit: https://elpasoymca.org/senior-lifestyle
• The City of El Paso manages 11 Senior Centers that offer a variety of programming including Swimming, Walking Trails, and other recreational activities. See what’s in your neighborhood: Visit: https://www.elpasotexas.gov/parks/centers/senior-c...
• Outdoor activities such as group walks, bicycle rides or organized hiking — short events, day-long events or planned multiday excursions— led by health and fitness professionals are more popular than ever – especially with the beautiful hiking trails in our Franklin Mountains.
