What is Optimal Aging?
Optimal aging is a science-based approach to bone health, strength, and longevity, designed to help adults age with confidence, independence, and resilience. While aging is inevitable, how you age, especially your bone density, muscle strength, and balance, is highly influenced by the right kind of exercise.
At Serban Wellness & Fitness in San Diego, we specialize in evidence-based strength training for bone health, osteoporosis prevention, and healthy aging for adults 40+.
As we age, many people experience:
- Menopause and hormonal changes affecting bone density
- Osteopenia or osteoporosis
- Joint and back pain
- Loss of muscle mass and strength
- Decreased energy and stamina
- Weight gain and metabolic changes
These changes are common—but they are not unavoidable.

Our system is designed to support:
- Bone density improvement and fracture prevention
- Safe strength training for osteoporosis and osteopenia
- Personalized, attainable health goals
- Long-term mobility, independence, and confidence
Through education, awareness, and structured progression, we help clients make informed decisions about their health, so they can continue doing what they love as they age.
Aging happens to everyone.
The difference is whether it happens by default or by design.
Why Choose This Approach?
In Debbie's own words
The best part of my work is that I learn something new every single day and I get to bring that knowledge directly to the people I work with.
What I love most is watching clients grow stronger than they ever thought possible. I see confidence return. I see fear soften. I see people surpass what they were told by doctors, experts, or even themselves was achievable.
I’ve always been drawn to creativity through movement. Early in my career as a recreation therapist, I worked with children and adults with a wide range of abilities, using movement and play to help them navigate real-life challenges. That experience shaped how I see the body, not as fragile, but as adaptable and capable.
Earning my Master’s degree in rehabilitation deepened my understanding of how the body changes over time and strengthened my passion for working with people who thought their situation was “too complicated.” Together, we build a clear, supportive path through aging, one grounded in strength, education, and trust.
I work with clients in their 30s through their 90s, including individuals in their 90s who are strong, confident, and fully engaged in life. They are living proof that aging does not mean shrinking.
It is never too late.
