Paris, Tenn.–Kelsey Arthurs, personal trainer and manager of Ultimate Fitness, presented a program to Paris Quotarians at its recent meeting at the Paris Academy for the Arts.
Ultimate Fitness is located behind Trolingers and is open 24 hours, 7 days a week. She emphasized the importance of walking for digestion, blood pressure and other health benefits. There are five basic exercises that women over 50 should participate in — squatting, hinging, pulling, pushing and bracing. She demonstrated each of these.
Daily movement is critical and strength training helps with bone density. Arthurs may be contacted 8am – 3pm for training or designing an exercise program that is right for each individual.
