L.I.F.E - Longevity and Independence through Functional Exercise.

L.I.F.E. at CrossFit Tunbridge Wells

(Longevity and Independence through Functional Exercise)

L.I.F.E. is our dedicated fitness programme for older adults, or anyone looking for a gentler, more accessible route to getting stronger, moving better, and feeling fantastic. It’s specifically designed to help you stay active, independent, and confident in everyday life—whether that’s keeping up with the grandchildren, swinging a golf club, heading off on a ski trip, or simply moving through your day with more ease and less pain.

This isn’t about smashing personal records or pushing to exhaustion. L.I.F.E. is about you—your goals, your pace, your health. Every session is led by a friendly, experienced coach who will guide you through safe, low-impact movements tailored to your ability. And the best part? You’ll be surrounded by like-minded people in a supportive, welcoming environment where community and connection matter just as much as the workout.

What to Expect

Each L.I.F.E. class includes:

• A gentle warm-up to prepare your body
• Functional strength exercises to support daily activities
• Balance, coordination and mobility drills to help prevent falls
• A short, low-impact workout to improve cardiovascular health
• Cool down and stretching to aid recovery and reduce stiffness

Movements are practical and designed with everyday life in mind: think squatting to sit down comfortably, lifting objects safely, improving balance to avoid trips and falls, and building the stamina to enjoy life’s adventures.

You’ll never be expected to do more than you’re comfortable with, and every workout can be adapted to your needs. Whether you're managing arthritis, recovering from injury, or just haven’t exercised in a while, we’ll help you start where you are and build from there.

Why It Matters

Functional fitness isn't just about building muscle—it's about staying independent and enjoying life to the fullest. The benefits of L.I.F.E. go far beyond the gym:

• Play with your grandchildren without getting worn out
• Stay steady on your feet and reduce the risk of injury or falls
• Improve your golf game, tennis serve, or skiing technique
• Build confidence in your body and what it can do
• Reduce aches and stiffness and move with more ease
• Feel energised and positive in your everyday life

For Adult Children & Grandchildren

Have a parent or grandparent who could benefit from more movement, better strength, and a boost of confidence? L.I.F.E. could be the greatest gift you give them. It’s safe, social, and has the power to transform their quality of life—from keeping their independence to keeping up with the little ones in the garden.

No Experience Needed

There are no prerequisites to join. No need to be “fit” or flexible or familiar with gym equipment. Just wear comfortable clothes, bring a water bottle, and show up—our team will take care of the rest.
