"Elderly
and senior strength training exercise?"
That
is the response I get when I tell people I use elderly strength training for seniors,
men and women in their 50's to 90's.
Yes,
they can be frail and have low energy reserves but most respond well to
moderate sessions of weight training.
Numerous
studies have shown that strength training for seniors done regularly not only
builds up bone and muscle but counteracts the weakness and frailty that usually
comes with aging.
Exercising
your muscles will increase not only your muscular strength but also your
muscular endurance which is the ability to repeat a movement over and over
again.
Start
an elderly and seniors strength training program today!
Check
with your doctor and ask if there are any precautions you should take.
Generally
most seniors and elderly can safely begin a fitness program.

5. Gliding Discs
Okay
not a machine but I can do a set of hill climbers to lunges to saws to roll
outs in my house. There aren’t to many products that give you this many
functional movements for only $15 per pair. Sometimes the simpilest things are
the best.
