How Older Adults Can Get Started with Exercise. Exercise and physical activity are great for your mental and physical health and help keep you independent as you age. Here are a few things you may want to keep in mind when beginning to exercise. Start Slowly When Beginning Exercise.It’s best to start off with a simple balance exercise for seniors.
Here’s how you do this one: stand behind a steady, solid chair (not one with wheels), and hold on to the back of it. Lift up your right foot and balance on your left foot. Hold that position for as long as you can, then switch feet.Stork: One of the simplest exercises to improve balance is to stand on one leg, keep your arms at your side with your Nose toucher: Stand with your right leg approximately 24 inches in front of your left, bend your knees slightly, and try Heel raises: Hold on to a sturdy chair for balance and.

Before starting any exercise program, talk to your doctor to find out what activities are right for you. It’s important to start slowly, and build gradually. Doing too much, too soon can result in injury. Even a five-to-ten minute walk is a good starting place, and you can build from there.
Exercise has many benefits for seniors with dementia Exercise is an excellent, non-drug way to improve well-being and reduce challenging behaviors in seniors with dementia. The important thing is to find exercises that are enjoyable and safe for their ability level. Staying active improves sleep, strength, flexibility, and circulation.
By combining different types of exercise, seniors can develop an effective exercise plan.

The most common type of endurance exercise is walking.5 Tips for Starting a Senior Exercise Program. Avoid the dangers of a sedentary lifestyle by finding a senior exercise program in your area.
If it’s been a while since you hit the gym, don’t get discouraged if you can’t complete a full 30 minutes of exercise at first.

Great workout! You did an awesome job…… keep up the good work……Kudos to you!
Thanks so much.. I feel so much rejuvenated.. truly… you are amazing…
This video of yours was very motivating, cheers, I walk and bike ride, but have a torn shoulder so its really holding me back, I have been doing my own exercises for it and with covid 19 I cant get to see anyone about it, do you have a suggestion for some exercises, I also have damaged my bursa. Im 73 female
I just subbed your channel I’m 72 years young pretty active but have a weak core need to work on that thank you so much for helping us older group ������im trying to learn how to do a postal squat not to good at it but will keep trying lol I also want to learn todo a pull up need to strengthen my upper body so I have a ways to go for that lol I do run and walk 5 to 7 miles daily any suggestions would be great ����������
Turned 40 this year, thanks for giving me some inspiration!:)
I am 71 and I can’t kneel on my kness, they complain too much after. Is there an alternative way of strengthening the core? Thanks.
This is true hero! Sharing your gift and talent to help people that less fortunate and alone, is a true gift and a caring spirit. May God continue to grant you spiritual wisdom and strenght to help many. Bless your heart and soul!
Man that good morning’s felt good
I have very weak back and it really does work
i love it, thank you, kind of a big help to a 65 senior like me who still strive to go strong and fit. God bless you and more power! Amalia Colcol Catangui from Philippines.
Will this be safe for my patient who has unstable SI joints? It looks like it would work.
Not interested working out rates just get on with the exercise at my age I could be dead by the time exercise starts.lol
I was able to walk through our apartment with little to no pain. Thank you
At almost 56 it’s not the crouching down that’s the problem….it’s getting back up.
The back and the knees are feeling it these days.
Aside from that I’m ready for the Olympics.
As you can see I have retained my sense of humour.
These exercises are great options for seniors to try at home. To better understand what contributes to balance loss in seniors, this article is helpful: https://www.ngcare.com/archives/senior-balance/
Here’s a good one if you don’t want to run or walk outside. Just walk up and down if front of the tv(this takes your mind off the exercising)I walk forwards and backwards(for 20 to 30 minutes)timesoon goes believe me! Even with weights if you want.
Also sit up and down from your sofa 10 to 20 times.
Let your imagination run wild,there’s all kinds of exercises you can do in the house.Walk up and down the hall.
Just keep moving!
I’m 66 and I still go jogging or walking in the morning at 6.00 am or 7.00 am in winter. Love what this man is doing. God bless you.
Thank you! I’ve been WFPB macrobiotic vegan for 47 years. Wanna look that good at 91!
You shouldn’t encourage people to work out in flip flops. The woman at the start of your video could have had a really bad slip. I agree that walking fast is still the best exercise because it uses all muscle groups.
Thank you so much-really well thought out and informative ��
Thank you so much. Your exercises are very help plus you are super friendly!
I thought when I saw it was for older people, great but I can’t do any from mon to Friday due to covid 19. Am in Scotland uk, am in what is called the shielded group, not allowed to go any further than my garden, due to underlying illnesses in my case my lungs.. Public places like pools r closed here., you haven’t taken covid into consideration in your work out.����������������������������
Pools are great because you can move in all different positions and stretches with no gravity.
I really like this video, because it gives me easier options. Thank you
Hi I am from India
Today I have watched your video
It is really very good
I am 63 years old
I will start from tomorrow
Then I will let you know my experience
Thanks
greatly encouragedto get started withthe program. instructions are clear and mindful of safety of seniors. thanks.
Yes good workout for senior people. Absolutely I will try this out for my additional workout as I’m been doing my yoga for exercise stretching. As we get older the joint become stiff if we are not mobilize on the joint then. Walking is the best therapy for everyday too. I’m stroke patient at age 45 and paralyze in 2012. I recovered the same year by changing life style, food taken and also being a vegan too. I’m glad I get over it at the age of 53 now year 2020. Thanks god. Aamiin. Just keep it up with routine exercise with walking and stretching. It’s really light up my day of life����keep active.
I can do some but not push ups with heels on it������too much talking though
Thanks, this is helpful! Have always tried working out but get off routine very easily
Turned 62 in January and just broke my foot last week. I can’t put weight on it for a month, but your system will help me get back to it when I can! Thanks! ��
Enjoyed your videos. I cannot get on my knees on the floor. I have rhemstoid and osteoarthritus. I have Lupus and shojogens (probably not spelled right). Do you have more exercisrs that would do the same thing where you do not have to get on the floor?
is this a joke?? i am 55 + no way i can get on the floor!, my knees are knackered and i fall a lot!!
Really good!! I m 55 and and looking for exercise for my age..shall try these..explained very nicely.thanx…
Where is the food link? I am interested. Really good video. I’m pretty ill digestive, neuropathic pain over whole body. My Dr says “I can’t help you”? I am 83 and just want guidance to help myself.
hey, thanks for these videos/workouts. i will be 66 in just a couple monthes. have become concerned with my increasing inability to walk very far without becoming winded and legs exhausted. one good thing about our current lockdown/quarantine is im getting serious about exercising. following you 5 days a week. my question is “how many videos/workouts do you suggest i do each day? i can do 2 now. thanks!
Thank you so much for these great exercises. I am 83 years old and feel good with your exercises. God Bless you. You help people a lot with you exercises
Thank you dear….♥️… Your video is really helpful.. I am going to be 54 this month end…and I was sceptical of starting a workout….. but your video showed me the simple exercises…. which I can do easily…. ��
Ryan…you need to modify this. A lot of us seniors cannot easily get down on our hands on knees! In my case (age 72) I’ve already had three torn knee meniscus surgeries and don’t want to rip whatever is left in the joints by putting all my weight on my knees! Then there is also the problem of finding it difficult to get up once I’m on the floor!
I can still do a headstand at 64 as long as I ve done dolphins first
Waste of time if you are totally unable to kneel because it is so painful. Been years since I could kneel.
Great exercises for sarcopenia, some r balancing ones n they r also yoga postures. Excellent video
I do yoga and zumba incorporating HIIT moves and am over 65. If you have the will, you can do it!
Really enjoyed this and have noted some tips I can incorporate into my routine. I walk and have a goal of 10k steps daily but will confess that I don’t do Resistance exercises often.
The video is very good and useful resources of Excerise I rate the video above standard. Those movement that you was demonstrate Ryan,Practice become perfect, I just turn 58 years and I Excerise on a daily basis jumping rope, Hula Hoops on my neck, take it off with my hands pass it from hands putting the Hula hoops under my two feet,I bend down lay my hands on top with my fingers tip on the ground for few minutes until feeling pressure into my legs.Another Excerise I lay flat on my back and do movement with my feet as fast as I can as if I am riding a bicycle. I also love walking long distance as Excerise.Excerise on a daily basis is very good and healthy eating habits, Drinking plenty of water.I just turn 58 years finishing raising Kids and I keep up myself looking good doing Excerise and eating healthy foods fresh fruits and Vegetables No red meat.God bless everyone stay safe and Be well.
also I have a new hip so dont know if I can do the leg bending up?????? thanks
You’re so nice! Thanks you for doing this and for your motivation I really need it ❤️
Excellent explanation. It can be very confusing today if you are challenged and older. There are so many choices.
First thing l noticed was the lady in the black robe wearing flip flops or thongs, no gym shouldn’t mean jo sense. She could slip out of such silly shoes. Best barefoot or trainers.
Just for motivation: I started at 51 with light calisthenics, mostly pushups and crunches, two years later I was doing pullups and dips and building muscle after 50. You can do it too, never give up.
GROW YOUNG…..so…ooooooooo good exercises for seniors “I M 68 YRS INDIAN LADY. I LIKE THIS SIT TING EXER…….THANKS A LOT LOT….& CONGRETUIA……✌✌✌✌✌
I’m in the older adult category and I can’t put any weight on my wrists, shoulders or knees due to arthritis, so a lot of this is not possible for me.
Definitely a “Like”..but more like a yyayy \o/ Ryan! Just watched your “Top 10 {Calisthenics} Celebrities ” at the close of your vid you mention looking to present something that’s different. How about if you can feature some more Seniors, say aged 64 65 and any who are much older? I’m early 60’s and just getting more serious with body-weight routines. A few more role models who are my age would be fantastic! Love your work and you’re a delightful young family man. Thank you! Cudos to the spouse too. Be sure to tell ’em.
Thanks for this video. Great exercises to work all parts of the body. Easy to follow. Two points that could improve, though: the background music is too annoying; and the use of housework metaphores is not really appropriate-I’d rather forget about work and think about improving my health. How about some more inspiring ones instead of washing tables and cabinets? I can do the exercises without sound but it is not as much fun. Again, thanks for your useful exercises.
СПАСИБО! MULTUMESC! ��❗️‼️THANKS FROM MOLDOVA, KISHINEV( CHISINAU) ( THE FORMER USSR )
Could you make a series of exercises based on targetted areas? Like for leg day, arm day, back day, core day, etc.
OMG! Bro (T-T) thank you soo much i will share this with my mom so she can be un shape again she is 61 <3
I really enjoyed this video.I now feel really relaxed.I thank you so so much.my new year resolution is to follow you every day,and hope to become more supple.❤️
THANK YOU AGAIN THIS HAS HELPED ME SINCE MY GRANDDAUGHTER AND I WERE IN A.T-BONE CAR WRECK LAST YEAR APRIL 6 2018, AND THANKS TO MY CHIORPATOR DR WAGNER TOO BROKEN ARROW, OKLAHOMA AND SPIRITUAL HEALING PRAYERS BLESS YOU ALL IN OUR CREATOR NAME
Finally a reasonable workout routine for older adults. Just started at 56, but think it is something that I can stick with. I like your explanations are easy to understand and see.
Haven’t watched it yet, but I really like the idea behind this video, so you deserve a Like nontheless
I go to the gym for my cardio. I have been looking for a doable easy work out and this looks great! After seeing that gymnast I guess age is only a number and being 58 is not an excuse! Thanks!
Your channel inspires me to not quit with my channel. Thank you and keep it up.
Great video, I see a lot of workouts that say beginner and they have high impact moves like box jumps and I dont understand how these people writing these can call themselves fitness experts. You actually know what you are talking about and I appreciate that. Let me ask you a question. I see a lot of workouts that say use 2 chairs and broomstick but it doesnt seem like a safe or stable set up to me, what do you think of those exercises?
I have been doing this with my 82 yr old grandmother 2x a week for the past 2 weeks. She hates/ loves it! Thank you!
Thank you so much for these basic exercises and the gentleness with which you do them!
I love the exercises. Thanks for sharing. I need these coz i have ostheoarthritis. God bless you…
very nice workout. I have a bad foot and it is nice to be able to workout and not put pressure on it.
Excellent exercises set! Great explanation, everything on point with rhythm, tempo, physiology of elderly person and positive energy:)
I am over seas and since we are home because of Corona virus, this was the best exercise for my parents. Thank you so much
I just turned 70 this year and I want to go back to the Gym. I’m in excellent condition and eat very well but I want to tone up like I did last year.What routine do you suggest for me to use at the Gym
