2) At Gym Tonic, seniors are provided with customised training programmes where workout loads are adjustable based on the individual’s fitness level and condition.
3) Using modern hydraulic exercise machines that are less stressful on the joints along with a user-friendly interface, seniors are able to perform the exercises with ease.
