Who we are

Care in Motion gives every resident their own personal trainer, a plan built around them, and progress everyone can see.

Older adults

Staying strong, steady and independent for longer, whatever their starting point.

People with disabilities

Adapted sessions for physical, learning, sensory and neurological disabilities, at any age.

Homes & families

A fully managed service for staff, and real peace of mind for the people who love them.

The science bit

If you don't use it, you lose it

Research is clear: muscle and bone fade when we stop moving, and they respond to training at any age. Regular, guided strength work sets people up to stay healthy, keep their muscle mass, and protect their bone density.

3–8%

of muscle lost every decade

Adults lose muscle mass each decade from their 30s onwards, and the loss speeds up after 60.

10 days

of bed rest is enough

Healthy older adults lost about 1 kg of leg muscle in just 10 days of bed rest.

174%

stronger, in their 90s

Care home residents aged 86 to 96 nearly tripled their leg strength after 8 weeks of strength training.

and it's not just muscle…

Stronger muscles, stronger bones

Supervised resistance training has been shown to improve bone density in women with low bone mass. That's why UK guidance recommends strength and balance activities at least two days a week for older adults.
