After 15 years as a personal trainer, I can confidently say that working out is possible for almost anyone—no matter your age or fitness level.

If you’re over 65, you may have valid concerns about beginning an exercise regimen. Stepping into a gym full of heavy weights and machines can be overwhelming, and balance or mobility issues may prevent you from performing certain movements.
