However, I only saw the 'active' people. Those who thrive on social interaction, those who are in relatively good health, those who recognize the importance of staying active in order to remain independent. That's when I start to wonder about the thousands of other older adults who live in the Sun City community who would rather exercise alone, in the comforts of their home. What are they doing?
I wonder what type of Senior Exercise Videos the people in Sun City are watching in their homes. Are they participating in up-to-date, scientifically researched seated exercise routines developed by fitness professionals or are they following the same 'ol routine using the same 'ol weights? If so, they may be hurting themselves and here's why....
No matter what age, the body adapts to the demands of exercise by getting stronger, more flexible, and improving balance abilities. When a person does the same stuff, the body doesn't have to adapt which is why you have to keep your body guessing so it can react and adapt. If you have been doing the same seated exercise routines year after year, you are not improving your physical well being.
Don't get me wrong, some movement is better than none but it's time for a change. A safe change. It's time to Take 5 to Exercise. My series educates you about why you need to do the movements then demonstrates how to do stretching and strengthening fall risk reduction exercises, all while seated.
Visit Take 5 to Exercisew today and order a copy of the most up-to-date fall risk reduction videos out there. Edu-tain-ment. Be educated while you are entertained.
