Course Overview

More than qualified. Build your career.

Training older adults requires a different level of awareness. Not less intensity, but more intention. This course is designed to help you understand how ageing affects the body and how that should shape your approach as a coach. You will build a clear understanding of the physical, physiological and bio-mechanical changes that come with age, and what that means in a training environment. From there, the focus moves to application. How to communicate effectively. How to assess needs and set appropriate goals. How to design and adapt programmes that reflect the individual, not just their age. You will also learn how to work around common medical conditions, manage risk and create sessions that feel both safe and purposeful. By the end of the course, you will be able to coach older adults with more confidence, delivering sessions that support long-term health, movement and independence. This is about helping people stay capable, not just active. Accreditation: Industry-recognised CPD.
