About this event
Welcome to Practical Strength!
Clemson Extension in South Carolina offers online, weekly strength training classes every Tuesday from 9:30 - 10:00 AM (Eastern Time Zone) with Health Extension Agents Ellie Lane, MS, RYT, CPT and Camden Bryan, CHES, GFI. All levels are welcome and beginners are strongly encouraged to join! Modifications are offered to suite all ages and mobility levels, with the option to participate from a comfortable seat or standing.
Why Join?
Many people think that strength training is only important when you are young, that it is only for men, or that you should only do it when you are trying to bulk up your muscles. This is simply not true. All people can benefit from strength training at any age, and it is easier to start than you think. This program will help you understand why strength training is important and beneficial, give you guidelines on what exercises to do, and provide ideas on how to make strength training practical in your everyday life.
Attending weekly strength training classes can help you take charge of your health and happiness. A little goes a long way - 30 minutes of simple, yet effective movement is enough to keep you feeling your best. A consistent strength training practice offers many great benefits such as enhanced quality of life, stronger muscles and bones, improved weight/ chronic disease management, greater self-confidence and improved cognitive skills. These are just a few of our favorites!
Join us this week to develop the strength you need to live life your way!
