Silver Stars Fitness is an NYC fitness company/studio that helps men & women over 60 get stronger, move, feel & look better WITHOUT having to be in a typical “GYM” environment
You might have noticed that once you turned sixty, your balance isn’t as good as it was a decade ago. You might not feel as confident going up/ down steps, navigating obstacles, or being in a crowded environment.
You think twice about getting into a bathtub for fear of not being able to get up or losing your balance while trying to get up, or you’re not comfortable going down and getting up from the floor or playing with your grandkids, especially when you’re on the floor.
You go on vacation, and sometimes you’re unable to participate in an activity because of the fear of falling.
Lack of balance affects our quality of life, robbing us of the confidence to move freely and do the things we love.
Unfortunately, if you feel like your balance is declining, you’re not alone.
