| Waist management boot camp for older adults |
| Older adult fitness instructors or animators are not qualified to tackle the complicated field of nutrition. However, we can certainly guide and motivate our clients on how to balance their macro nutrients, the energy-in versus energy-out equation, the myths and fads of dieting, and certain marketing half truths. Adults, sixty-five years and older, tend to have specific issues regarding waist size and activity. Attend this lecture and you will learn how to implement a successful program for your mature clientele. |
