This is the program almost everybody here trains in. You work with a coach who chooses every single exercise for your body and your goals, and you do it in a small group where the room expects you. Personal coaching, without a one to one price.
Strength Training for Adults 40+
Strength work is the middle of every program we write, because it is what protects the next thirty years. You lift real weight, progressively, with a coach setting the load and keeping your knees, shoulders and back out of trouble.

Update to my original review: Soon, I'll have been a member of Aion Personal Training for three years. My wife saw how positive the experience was for me, and she joined and has been there for over a year now. I'm 55 years old now. Compared to just three years ago, I am stronger. I am in far better shape for simple everyday things like climbing multiple flights of stairs instead of taking an elevator. Most important: I feel more confident that I will retain a stronger, healthier body as I get older. It's not that I never have setbacks. At one point, I strained a muscle in my arm. At another point, my knee started giving me trouble. The important thing is, in response to these things, the amazing coaches at Aion worked closely with me to modify my workouts and perfect my form to mitigate discomfort and strengthen vulnerable areas to protect me from a recurrence. It works! Now here's my original review, all of which still applies: I spent the first 50-ish years of my life vacillating between being active and fit, and overweight and sedentary. Dieting had me losing weight and then gaining it all back, and then some. At 40, I worked with a personal trainer who got me in great shape but weighed me weekly and shamed me whenever I gained a pound or two. Then, parenthood happened and I stopped exercising altogether. By the time the COVID lockdown ended, I could hardly make it up a single flight of stairs. I was in the worst shape of my life, and scared for my future. But I always had excuses: too busy, no time, and worst of all: why bother because I know I'll just let it go again? Then one day, I was walking down Colorado Blvd. when Aion Personal Training's sign caught my eye. A gym for people 40+? And only a short walk from my workplace? I had no excuse not to try. Marcus, the owner, was welcoming, non-judgmental, and had a straightforward sense of confidence that I could get fit and improve my life if I just... showed... up. Over the two years I've been a member, I've come to know the coaches and many of my fellow clients, and to appreciate the sense of community that's been created. The coaches have a positive energy and, during my semi-private (small group) workouts, there's an amazing level of personal attention to check my form, offer advice, and encourage me to push past where I was last week. It's a long game, and the folks at Aion Personal Training know it. My plan is to be with them for the long haul. I highly recommend that you set up a consultation if this sounds like it could be a good fit for you.
