How Do You Improve Fitness With Regular Seated Chair Exercise?
Because the goal of exercise programs for older adults is to increase strength and improve mobility, for those who may find standing difficult, seated chair workouts may be the answer. Workouts while sitting in a chair can help individuals to improve muscular strength, cardiovascular health, as well as coordination and balance, and should include gentle stretching and range of motion exercises. Not only can chair exercise be fun, it is a practical fitness option for senior adults who may have balance problems or limited mobility. Stretch and tone your muscles. Regularly exercising your arms and legs helps to keep them strong. Increased muscle strength also leads to better circulation. Even warm-up stretches and breathing exercises can be done sitting in a chair. You can benefit from simple movements like lifting your arms over your head, tapping your toes, lifting your heels or kicking your legs out in front. Improve your range of motion, which helps to relieve muscle and joint pain. R
