AnnotationInstead of addressing the "mechanics" of planning and implementing an exercise programme, this article focuses on the mental, emotional and social aspects of physical activity programming for older adults. The overarching theme is that professionals who lead exercise programmes can and should guide older adults, based on the individual needs these participants bring to activity settings, rather than having older adults fit the characteristics of set activity programming and/or instructor preferences.
