Age On - The Gym for Older Adults

09/11/2026

What if your next continuing education session gave you something useful for Thursday’s patient instead of information that stayed in your notes?

Jake Raecker, PT, DPT, GCS, is leading a practical session on using High-Intensity Interval Training with older adults. The discussion will move beyond whether HIIT can help and focus on how to select, modify and progress it for different abilities and clinical needs.

Participants will explore:

- Evidence-supported benefits for older adults
- HIIT frameworks for different functional levels
- Work-to-rest ratios and exercise selection
- Modifications for chronic conditions, frailty and mobility limitations
- Safe intensity progression in clinical practice

Join us Wednesday, September 16, from 6:15–7:45 p.m. CT.

Make your mind an asset not the enemy.

Had some fun today presenting to Iowa Family Medicine, Family Medicine-Psychiatry Residents, and PA residents. ⚫🐤👩‍⚕️

We talked about how many older adults see exercise and movement as a threat or something to be feared. Older adults can do really hard things, and can improve their strength, endurance, and capacity.

The way we talk about movement, educate about the benefits it can provide, and help our patients build collaborative strategies to address barriers are responsibilities everyone in the health-care environment has some stake in.
