Why? Because everyone needs real training! Unfortunately, hardly anyone is aware of this. The consequences of a sedentary and comfortable daily life are not considered. If that were the case, the decision to train regularly would be made earlier and more consciously.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">From the age of 25, the human body begins to lose muscle strength if this process is not actively counteracted with strength training. First, the body loses 1-15% of muscle mass, in the following years it is already 40-50%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The first sign that something is wrong is pain. On average, the pain becomes really annoying at the age of 40. At this point, people are often already used to the wrong movement patterns because certain daily activities can only be performed to a limited extent. Movement becomes increasingly difficult and painful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">At retirement age, normally a time for enjoyment, we become dependent on outside help \u2013 not only because of physical but also because of mental decline.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The WHO has recognized Sarcopenia, the progressive loss of muscle mass and strength as we age, as a clinical picture. They indicate that there is only one cure: strength training. We believe it is our duty as an industry to make everyone aware of this. Everyone is capable of achieving a better quality of life with targeted, individual training. And that up to a very old age. The graph below shows the loss of muscle strength based on age and how this can subsequently affect the quality of life of everyone. Take action in time and grow old vitally.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">More quality of life at every age<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">People move less and less. Our society is focused on comfort. If you want to live without physical and mental limitations at an older age and want to keep your quality of life high, there is no other alternative than good training. The basis of good training consists of three things: muscle, mobility and brain training.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Exercise alone cannot save you from age-related muscle and cartilage breakdown. For that, you need strength training. Targeted and controlled strength training with measured growth stimuli makes everyone stronger and healthier.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Muscle strength alone does not protect against pain. Sitting for hours, for example, shortens the muscles and fascia. Regular mobility and muscle length training will help keep the fascia and muscle chains flexible and supple, thus preventing pain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Every physical training session taxes the brain, more than, for example, your daily work behind the computer, or solving crossword puzzles. Regular physical training contributes to the prevention of dementia and helps to maintain independence and freedom of movement into old age.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Curious about the benefits our approach can have for you?
