Have you been less active than usual during the Christmas period?
Why not go for a walk today? Regular exercise is particularly important as we age and our metabolism slows down. We need to burn more energy than we consume, and a daily walk can help us achieve that. A brisk walk can also strengthen your heart by increasing your heart rate and reduce the risk of heart disease. Walking can also strengthen bones and prevent the onset of osteoporosis. Moreover, it's an excellent way to boost your mood and improve your overall well-being.

Christmas songs from next week or leave them until week commencing 11th December??

Gwen Ackland, please can you message me regarding the 1.30pm class. Thank you 😊

It's World Mental Health Day tomorrow. We tend to emphasise good physical health whilst not always thinking enough about our mental health.

Fresh air is a great way to free up your mind and, combined with some physical activity or social contact, it can enhance your well-being.

Our Move it or Lose it sessions are a great way to meet others, distract you from other things on your mind and get you moving in a positive direction.

How are your cuppa routines going?? Remember, whilst the kettle is boiling, you can be doing some heel raises. Whilst you're waiting for your cuppa to cool down, you could do some side arm raises.
When you get up from your chair to fetch something, why not sit down, then stand up again. You could repeat that a few times - just don't forget what it was you stood up for in the first place 😅

As I was saying in classes this week, stretching is important to do on a regular basis. We always stretch at the end of our sessions and you can see below how this can help in daily life 😊

We are using handweights this week for bicep curls, wrist curls, hammer curls and other moves 😊

Exercise with weights linked to lower risk of early death, study says Older adults could benefit from routine including aerobics and strengthening activities, according to researchers

There won’t be any classes at The Hayridge in Cullompton on Monday 19th September.
We will be back there on Monday 26th. Look forward to seeing you then.

No classes today. See you next Monday 😁

Warning for the car park users at The Hayridge in Cullompton. Apparently the resident seagulls have been attacking users (protecting their young) so please take care!

We love this quote 💛

We can help you to wind it up again!

Did you know that by the time you turn 65, you could have lost a quarter of your muscle mass? This is called sarcopenia and leads to a reduction of strength and balance which ultimately increases your risk of falls. This is why we include strengthening exercises in our classes to help you stay fit for life. To find your local class, go to

Our classes will be running as usual this week but will be being very mindful of the temperature! Please keep yourselves well hydrated and protected from the sun 😊

We'll be keeping cool at our classes on Monday and Tuesday. Please bring your bottle of water but chilled water will be available for top ups.
Bring your summer scarves too so that we can waft ourselves 😁
See you after the weekend 😘
