Course Detail
I am a senior working with and for seniors, and I need your help!
I don't have a group of computer people working for me to build this program, it's just me, and I want this to be as user friendly as possible. Only other seniors can help me accomplish that.
Your current level of fitness does not matter. Whether you are new to fitness or experienced, this site is for you. I will show you:
What I do, How I do it and Why I do it.
If you join me, I will show you how to adjust the workouts to your fitness level, so
We can 'Raise Our Aging Curves' together!
In return I ask:
- that you participate in the on-line fitness training (includes exercise and nutrition).
- participate in the community by sharing how you feel as you age.
- give me feedback on content and methods.
- provide suggestions you think will lead to improvements.
When you join me, your welcome email will contain a link to download my app, (My Library), which contains the course materials.
The app contains all the content, you can put the app on your phone or tablet. and you can take it anywhere!
Or if you prefer paper, all workouts are available for download, which you cna then print.
Part 1 - Get Ready for Fitness
(beginners)
is a 3-month program for the very unfit, who no longer want to be in that category. It is repeatable if necessary.
The goal is to improve your fitness to a level where you can be mobile and exercise for 20-25 minutes a day, 4 days a week.
I show you what to do, how to do it, and why you should do it!
We start with basic body movements and simple walking.
Our bodies are meant to:
- bend and lift,
- push and pull
- Rotate
- Stride
If you have not been active for many years, you cannot expect to get fit overnight. But, you can expect to see rapid improvement and to be able to measure your own improvements.
Can you:
1) Stand from sitting without using your hands
2) Walk briskly without getting winded
3) Balance on 1 foot for 10 seconds
4) Get down on the floor and back up again easlly
5) Carry a bag of groceries without effort
6) Climb a fight of stairs without stopping
If the answer is no, then this is the place for you to start.
If necessary, you can repeat the same course a second time at no additional cost.
The workouts are intended to get you improving in each of the 6 basic types of human movement listed above.
Walking is a cardiovascular (cardio) workout that improves the ability of your heart and lungs (your engine) to properly aerate your blood with oxygen and circulate it throughout your body as needed.
Other exercises will be introduced in each area at a level that suits your ability. This will help you build your strength and improve your range of motion.
You can do this in the comfort of your home with little or no equipment.
Weekly video meetings will be held to discuss your progress and to share what you are doing and feeling.
I have priced this so anyone can afford it. If you know someone who wants this course but really cannot afford to pay, you may buy it as a gift. You will need their name and email address to purchase in their name.
This is the first part of 'Work Out with Ron'.
Part 2 - Workout with Ron
(everyone else)
This is simply working out with me. You do what I do.
In "Workout with Ron", you work out along with me, and I help you adjust the workouts to make them easier or harder, whichever suits you.
I show you what to do, how to do it, and why you should do it!
This is for everyone!
It's an annual Membership that includes:
Functional workouts for all fitness components, strength, flexibility, agility, mobility, balance, posture, cardio, body composition and 'Common Sense Nutrition'
Each fitness component listed above contributes to your ability to maintain your independence. All workouts are designed by me, a senior, for seniors. These are my actual workouts. Remember my age (now 78) and that I am a senior too!
If I can do these, so can you.
- New Workouts are opened for you each week.
- We work with and without equipment, and focus on functional movements. These are the things you find yourself doing in your daily life.
- I show you how to do every exercise and tell you how to make them harder or easier. This allows you to adjust the degree of difficulty to your individual ability.
- The course includes a very practical approach to nutrition, from:
1) My course work at 'Precision Nutrition',
2) The Colin Campbell Foundation at Cornell University.
3) What I learned after Open Heart Surgery, a stroke and Cancer.
4) What I am learning as I work to get off prescriptions for High Blood Pressure and High Cholesterol. I have been told I need these for the rest of my life and I don't accept that!
- There is lots of yoga in everything I do
- I have an app for your mobile device so you can take your workouts anywhere
- Weekly Video meetings to discuss your progress, keep you focused and motivated.
My motto is to : Move Better, Feel Better, Look better!
WorkOut with Ron is for all Seniors and boomers.
If I can do this at 78, so can you!
