Endurance Training with Seniors
Endurance training helps to reduce morbidity and functional decline in old age. The aim of physical training is to maintain a good level of performance that is sufficient for a self-determined life into old age. Performance during training is not a sporting peak performance, but individual performance to maintain or restore health. Endurance training is therefore an intervention that has a decisive positive influence on quality of life in old age.
In this unit, participants learn about the physiological effects of endurance training, which affect both the body and the mind. In the practical part of the unit, age-appropriate tests to determine performance are first presented. Subsequently, the test results will be used to determine training areas and to plan and implement target group-specific training interventions. Possible problems and limitations such as illnesses or chronic complaints are also taken into account.
