Imagine sprinting towards the finish line without the fear of a pulled hamstring. Picture yourself conquering that final ascent on the trail, knees strong, and lungs clear. Envision gliding effortlessly through the water, feeling the freedom of movement, even in your golden years.
This, my friends, is the power of intelligent age-in-place living.
I'm not just talking about staying in your house but thriving there. This is a sanctuary you've built, filled with memories and laughter. Why leave it when you can transform it into a haven of strength, vitality, and joy?
Now, let me introduce myself:
My name is Alan Pruitt, and I'm your guide on this fantastic journey. I'm not just a fitness fanatic or a health nut (though I'll admit to a severe case of both). I have a deep understanding of how our bodies work and adapt across all stages of life.
But wait, there's more! I'm an Adjunct Faculty Professor in the Wellness and Physical Education department at Arizona Western College, crafting courses like "Exercise for Special Populations" and "Strength & Conditioning" to empower diverse individuals. I've also spent countless hours in the trenches as a Certified Personal Trainer, Strength & Conditioning Coach, Adult-Learn-To-Swim Swimming Instructor, and Fitness Instructor.
My credentials might sound impressive, but my passion lies in helping people like you. From young athletes to seasoned veterans, I've witnessed lives transformed through movement. And now, I want to share that transformation with you. My personal mission is simple…I like to help humans move better, live longer, and play smarter.
