Why Low Impact?
Low-impact exercises are a blessing for seniors! They are easy on the joints, reducing the risk of injury, which is especially crucial given the various
festivities and active lifestyles we have in India. They also help maintain mobility and build strength without causing any strain.
Walking is Wonderful
Walking is an excellent low-impact exercise. A brisk walk for 30 minutes daily can improve cardiovascular health. Consider walking in the park or near your home. Invite your friends or family to join you and stay active together.
Yoga for Flexibility
Yoga is a gift! Gentle yoga poses help improve flexibility, balance, and strength. Find a class nearby or follow online tutorials, keeping in mind traditional Indian practices. Remember to start slowly and consult a yoga instructor if needed, to ensure safety.
Swimming's Soothing Touch
Swimming is like a dip in coolness! It’s easy on the joints and provides a full-body workout. If a pool is accessible, take advantage of it. The water supports your weight, making exercise comfortable. It also offers a great opportunity to socialise.
Home Workouts Anyone?
Even at home, you can stay fit! Simple exercises like chair aerobics or using resistance bands can make a difference. Many online resources provide tailored routines. Always remember to listen to your body and stop if you feel any pain.
