Safe & Gentle Movement
Central Coast Seniors Fitness
Falls are the leading cause of injury among Australians aged 65 and over — yet many of these incidents are preventable through strength, balance and mobility training. True Form Fitness, based in Gwandalan and servicing the Central Coast, provides tailored seniors fitness programs specifically designed for older adults. These sessions are delivered in-home, outdoors or online by a qualified trainer with a Certificate IV in Master Trainer and specialist accreditation in aged care.
Whether clients are new to exercise or managing chronic conditions, each program is created to support long-term physical function, independence and confidence.
All exercises are low-impact, adaptable and focused on real-world movement. That means improving coordination, joint stability and postural strength in a way that enhances day-to-day activities like walking, climbing stairs, or rising from a seated position.
Sessions are paced to suit the individual’s comfort and medical considerations and may also include cognitive and breathing exercises to promote overall wellbeing. To learn more about our seniors fitness services or to schedule a consultation, call 0408 892 758 today.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of exercise is best for seniors?
The best exercises for seniors focus on improving strength, balance, flexibility and endurance. This often includes bodyweight or light resistance training, walking or cycling, seated exercises, stretching and balance drills. Low-impact routines reduce strain on joints while maintaining functional capacity. Programs should always be tailored to the individual’s age, fitness level and medical conditions to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Is it safe for older adults to start exercising later in life?
Yes, research shows that it is both safe and beneficial for older adults to begin exercising at any age. Regular movement can help improve heart health, reduce the risk of falls, and manage conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure. A fitness professional with training in aged care can create a safe program that starts slowly and progresses at a comfortable pace, even for those who have been inactive for years.
How often should seniors exercise each week?
Health authorities generally recommend older adults engage in at least 30 minutes of moderate activity most days of the week. This can include walking, strength training, flexibility exercises and balance practice. However, the frequency and intensity should be adjusted to match the individual's condition and goals. A personalised plan from a qualified trainer ensures consistency without overexertion, especially for those managing medical concerns.
Individual Focus
Promoting Health Through Movement
Every seniors fitness program begins with an informal consultation and movement assessment to identify personal goals, mobility limitations and any existing health conditions. From there, we create a gentle, progressive training plan that builds strength gradually, without overexertion or discomfort.
Depending on the client’s needs, sessions may include resistance training, balance drills, core stability work, stretching, and light aerobic movement. All exercises are selected for safety and relevance — not just fitness, but function in everyday life.
This approach is especially effective for older adults managing arthritis, osteoporosis, Parkinson’s disease, or general age-related deconditioning. It’s also ideal for individuals who haven’t exercised in years and want to improve quality of life without risking injury.
In-home and mobile options make participation easier by removing transport and accessibility concerns, while online support provides consistency for those living remotely or preferring virtual sessions. For expert-guided training that supports independence and wellbeing, give us a call to get started.
