60-year-olds now lifting weights? Indian gyms are getting a silver makeover!

    Share on

Indian gyms are witnessing a "silver revolution" as people in their 50s and 60s increasingly join fitness centers to regain control of their health.

Once seen as a youth-dominated space, gyms now cater to older adults dealing with issues like diabetes, high blood pressure, and joint problems. Strength training is no longer taboo for seniors - doctors and fitness experts now recommend it to combat muscle loss and improve quality of life.

Post-COVID awareness around immunity and longevity has further driven this shift.

Influencers like Ashu Jain and Dinesh Mohan have also inspired older adults to start fitness journeys. Personal trainers play a crucial role in ensuring elderly clients exercise safely, with customized plans and posture correction. With family support and expert guidance, more seniors are lifting weights, using resistance bands, and embracing active aging.

It’s proof: it’s never too late to get stronger and healthier - gym time is no longer just for the young.
