Real Strength Castlemaine is a safe, friendly, and welcoming strength training gym located in Castlemaine, Victoria. The gym caters to people of all ages, fitness levels, and abilities, with a special focus on the over 55's. Real Strength believes that it is never too late to get stronger and improve one's quality of life.
Unlike your average gym, Real Strength does not have machines or mirrors. Instead, it offers a relaxed and inclusive space with an eclectic mix of music, lots of celebratory clapping, and many smiling faces. While it may appear to be just about fun, serious life-changing transformations occur within the gym.
Real Strength adopts the philosophy of starting where you are, using what you have, and doing what you can. The gym focuses on three compound movements: the squat, bench press, and deadlift. These movements work every muscle group in the body and are applicable to everyday tasks such as standing from sitting, lifting a child, gardening, and carrying shopping. By committing to just two sessions per week, individuals can see incredible results in under two hours.
There are numerous benefits to strength training that can enhance overall health and quality of life. Strength training at Real Strength can increase muscle strength, flexibility, mobility, and balance. It also improves bone density and can help prevent osteoporosis. Moreover, strength training lowers the risk of falls, bone fractures, and other injuries.
It has been shown to improve memory, cognitive function, mood, and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. Building strength at Real Strength can also boost confidence and self-esteem, improve cardiovascular health, lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels, reduce the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain types of cancer, as well as increase metabolism for healthy weight management.
Real Strength has been featured on SBS's “The Feed” and has garnered positive testimonials from its members. Barb, an 81-year-old member, shares her experience of overcoming immobility caused by rheumatoid arthritis.
