Ageism in fitness is often subtle, but its impact is significant. In this clip from a recent webinar, Erin Eleu, host of the AGEnts of Movements podcast, highlights how these beliefs can quietly lower expectations, reduce confidence and create environments where older adults feel overlooked or underestimated. When exercise professionals shift their lens and recognize aging as a dynamic and highly individual process, it opens the door to more effective coaching, stronger relationships and better long-term outcomes for clients.
In the Overcoming Ageism in Fitness course (worth 0.1 ACE CECs), you will learn how common assumptions about aging can shape everything from the way we speak to clients to how we design programs and market our services. This course also equips you with practical tools to identify and address these biases with your clients and in your practice. You will learn how to use inclusive language, apply simple reframing strategies and design adaptable programs that support safety, progression and adherence across a wide range of abilities. Led by Eleu, this course helps you build movement experiences that foster psychological safety, connection and trust while positioning you to better serve the growing population of older adults.
If you are looking to elevate your coaching and create more inclusive and empowering spaces, this course offers a clear and actionable path forward.
