Strength For Life
Keeping you in shape, on your feet and independent
You may have heard of these popular classes for over 50s (over 40s if indigenous).
They are aimed at maintaining and improving strength into older age, with an individual program tailored to you, completed in a class setting and also involving some group balance exercises to prevent falls.
Falls can be devastating to the independence and health of older people, and can easily result in fractures, complications and even death.
So many falls are preventable, and exercise makes a huge difference to an individual's risk of falls.
There are many risk factors for falls (and injury from falls) in older people, such as:
- Medications
- Diabetes
- Dizziness
- Urinary tract infection
- Osteoporosis
- Pets
- Living alone
- Using a walking aid
- Uneven walking surfaces in the house
- Urgency for the toilet
- Arthritis
- Decreased vision
- History of previous falls
- Can't get up from the floor unassisted
- No plan for what happens in case of a fall
Perhaps you know someone who would benefit from attending Strength for Life classes? Perhaps it's you?

Just started using this gym. I have been very impressed with the facilities and plan to use on a regular basis. Thank you Rachel for your extremely friendly induction.🙂
Great little gym l, very conveniently located on Gulfview, heaps of security camera parking. Equipment is all well maintained and everyone I've seen using the gym has had the type of manners and courteousness you’d hope of a good gym. (Towels, resetting, keeping out of your bubble, etc).Price is awesome as well.
Love that its local people who own the gym. The place is friendly, great staff, lots of variety. The emails and videos are informative and Rachaels recipes are delish. 5 out of 5 from me.
Amazing staff and a great place to train! Very inviting and welcoming especially for people that are t super comfortable in the gym space! Couldn’t recommend this place more highly 😊
Such a welcoming family feeling, all the staff I dealt will were so informative and answered any questions I had. They made sure I was doing all the exercises right and gave me the encouragement I needed to keep going.
Felt very welcomed by all the staff and other members when I started my membership and gym journey last week. All the classes have modifications for new members and the trainers will help if you find anything difficult. All the equipment is easy to use and there’s plenty of space for everyone. I have already recommended BodySmith to friends and family in the area and I’m excited to see my progress in the gym! 😊
