Exercise for seniors and after pregnancy, shown at home
For a parent or grandparent, the work is getting up from a chair, climbing the stairs and not falling. During and after pregnancy it is gentle, supported and cleared by the doctor first. These are the movements a coach uses most for both, always with a hand close by.
Every photograph here is a generated illustration of what a coached session looks like. None shows a Fit Bud client or a result.
