Emiko Jaffe – Personal Trainer for Active Women over 50
If you’re looking for a female personal trainer who really understands what it means to be Midlife Fit, you’ve found her. I know how important it is to get stronger (while protecting old injuries and preventing new ones), increase stamina (without workouts that leave you feeling sore and exhausted), move with more suppleness (while relieving aches and stiffness), and express on the outside the youthful, vibrant version of YOU that you feel on the inside.
Personal training for Menopausal women
As our bodies and life priorities change in midlife, exercise is no longer a “nice to have”– it’s a necessity to delay–and even reverse–the negative effects of aging which include bone, muscle and strength loss. But one-size-fits-all “busy work” workouts won’t cut it for us when it comes to maintaining and improving our health and fitness. Nope! For that, you need a thoughtfully and strategically designed program, ideally, tailor-made just for you with nutritional, sleep and stress management support.
Personal training for perimenopausal women
Perimenopause can bring a myriad of physical and emotional changes, making it crucial to have a fitness regimen that adapts to your body’s fluctuating needs. My approach focuses on increasing your physical capacity to enjoy your favorite activities, managing stress, and maintaining energy levels so you can stop relying on that second (or fifth!) cup of coffee to get over those mid-afternoon slumps. With smart programming created just for you and supportive coaching, I help you navigate this transitional phase with confidence and vitality.
Personal training for postmenopausal women
- Take fewer rest breaks and see more art when you visit the Louvre on your Paris vacation.
- Enjoy the views and wildlife with your family on a hike and not fall behind on the trail.
- Maintain athleticism in your favorite sport while decreasing your injury risk.
- Slow down the effects of aging (and we’re talking way down) so that you get more life out of your years.
