Silverstrong Fitness helps mature adults stay strong, balanced, confident, and independent so they can continue doing the activities they love with family and friends. Our clients are primarily women 60 , and our mission is to help them remain active, engaged, and living life on their own terms.

As we grow in 2026, we are seeking a warm, patient, and encouraging personal trainer who specializes in working with seniors. This is an opportunity to do deeply meaningful work where your coaching directly improves our clients’ quality of life.

Who We Are

• Strength training to reduce frailty and improve bone density

• Balance training to reduce the risk of falling

• Functional mobility and flexibility

• Cognitive and dual-task training to support brain health and improve reaction time

Our clients value compassion, encouragement, and personal connection. They stay because of how we make them feel while they become stronger.
