The Importance Of Fitness As We Age
We’ve all heard the expression ‘move it or lose it’, but this concept becomes increasingly pressing as we get older. For individuals aged 40, 50 and beyond, a focus on building strength, fitness and functionality can be the determining factor for a good quality of life.
Specialised Training In A Safe Space.
At OMC we understand that busy gyms, and a cut and paste approach to fitness often miss the mark for many over 40 year olds who are wanting to improve or maintain their health. Instead, we create a personalised training program that is unique to you, regardless of what your health and wellness goals are.
Our state-of-the-art MedX machines, specialised trainers, and relaxed and friendly atmosphere allow us to work one-on-one with you to transform those goals into reality.
How We Address Your Changing Health Goals
As we age it’s not just our bodies that change, but often our health goals too. Below is a list of common health and wellness objectives that our clients over 40 and 50 years of age express to us. If any of these resonate, then a personal training session at OMC would be a good fit for you too.
- Get fitter
- Lose weight
- Improve mobility
- Enhance posture
- Reduce risk of injury
- Enjoy a better quality of life
- Reduce pain and discomfort
- Increase strength and power
- Increase flexibility and agility
- Improve endurance and stamina
- Improve overall fitness and conditioning
- Support or improve sport performance (e.g. golf swing)
Personal training that’s tailored to you and your unique health goals, giving you results without the risk of injury.
The Personal Training Difference
As we get older our health requirements, physical capabilities and fitness objectives often become more varied. Group exercise and fitness classes are rarely capable of addressing these unique factors, and we become more susceptible to injury if we’re not practising correct form and technique.
This is why it’s imperative to work under the guidance of an experienced trainer, especially as we age.
At OMC we incorporate MedX equipment with functional fitness exercises that follow your body’s natural movements. This unique approach is built into your personalised program to help restore your body’s movement in a safe and controlled way, whilst also reducing your risk of injury.
The functional fitness knowledge of our experienced trainers means your program can be designed in a way that meets you where you’re at. We then incorporate the MedX machines as these are the best way to isolate and strengthen the exact muscles needed to create a fitter, more functional body.
Our tailored, personal training approach to your health and wellbeing, is what allows us to help you increase strength, enhance posture, improve stamina, and generally provide a better quality of life.

Expert Trainers + MedX Machines = Life Changing Results!
About 4mths ago I was advised I had a pinched nerve, due to a combination of bad posture while sitting at a desk all day, no doubt holding a bit of stress in my shoulders and a lack of muscle strength in my lower to mid back, my right shoulder blade had rotated forward and pinched a nerve. I stared visiting the Optimum Movement Centre once a week, they were very accommodating with a variety of session times that I could choose from to fit in with my work schedule. I’m happy to say that my shoulder has not only made a full recovery but I’m also feeling stronger in my body in general, I’m no longer getting pins and needles during the day or pain down my arm and I can sleep through the night. Through strengthening my core and my back I have also noticed I’m no longer suffering from as many migraines as I used to. I’m very grateful for the opportunity to attend the Optimum Movement Centre and for the patience and knowledge from Nick who has educated me on the use of the machines and helped me improve my overall strength and fitness.
