At EASTSIDE LONGEVITY CLINIC in Kirkland, WA, personal training is part of a larger strategy for healthy aging. Dr. Frank Marinkovich, M.D., takes a longevity-based approach that goes beyond traditional workouts—focusing on functional strength, mobility, stability, and energy systems that help adults stay strong, independent, and injury-free for years to come.

Why Traditional Workouts Fall Short for Aging Adults
Most gym routines don’t account for joint changes, muscle loss, or recovery needs
Random exercises may increase risk of overuse or injury
High-intensity or trendy workouts can exhaust energy without building real-life strength
Why it matters: Training for longevity means training with purpose—your goals, your risks, your future.
What Personal Training for Longevity Really Focuses On
Functional Strength: Movements that help you lift, carry, push, and get up with ease
Mobility & Joint Health: Keeping full, pain-free range of motion
Balance & Stability: Reducing fall risk and improving postural control
Cardiovascular Resilience: Improving endurance and heart health without overexertion
Recovery & Adaptation: Matching exercise to your body’s pace and recovery needs
Tip: The goal is to stay strong for life—not just look strong today.
Benefits of a Longevity-Focused Training Plan
