Functional fitness – movement for better ageing
The main benefit of functional fitness is that it helps your body cope with the demands of daily life, which is particularly important as we get older. Activities that once felt easy – like bending down to get dressed or carrying heavy bags of shopping – can get more difficult as we age.
More generally, functional fitness helps to build mobility, stability, strength and balance, which can help us prevent injuries, age well and stay independent for longer.
