  1. ELDERLY EXERCISE A Perspective By My Guardian

  2. Physical activities are good for everyone, and the older age is not the reason to avoid training your body. In fact, aging is a strong argument for taking particular care of your heart, joints, and muscles. Age alone does not make you weak and sick. Your attitude towards aging either lets you become stronger, healthier, more confident and free in movements or limits you from any development. With a positive attitude, all you need is a good start with the help of a personal care assistant and according to the recommendations of your aged care provider. If you want to maintain a healthy lifestyle, exercising your body is one of the musts. There are four types of physical activity that should take place in your schedule.

  3. ENDURANCE ACTIVITIES Jogging Swimming Dancing Biking Such exercises increase your breathing and make your heart beat faster. Doing them regularly will boost your endurance, develop your lungs, and strengthen your heart.

  4. STRENGTH EXERCISES (ANAEROBIC ONES) Like weights lifting and training with a resistance band. If you need to strengthen your back or neck, to build local muscles or just get stronger, such exercises will definitely help.

  5. BALANCE EXERCISES Like yoga, tai chi, Wushu, and others. Aging bones become fragile, and simple falling may cause breaking a bone. Taking care of your body balance and wearing safe shoes helps prevent accidental slips and falls.

  6. FLEXIBILITY EXERCISES Like yoga and stretching. These exercises stretch your muscles and make your body limber. As a result, it becomes resistant to the muscle and joint injuries like a torn ligament, dislocated joint, pinched nerve, etc. To gain important health benefits, older adults need around 1.5-2 hrs of moderate-intense endurance activities every week in combination with strengthening exercises.

  7. As for the balance and stretching exercises, you can do them every day - in the morning, watching TV, warming up before any cardio exercises, etc. If you have a personal care assistant, he or she may help you when you need support in your daily exercises. If you have a personal care assistant, he/she will help you with the exercises that you can do at home.

  8. If you have never been active, start slowly. Moderate intensity of endurance activities means that you breathe harder, your heart beats faster, and you are still able to talk (but not to sing). There are no measures of the intensity of your exercises except for the way you feel. Remember this and don’t overwork yourself. Be attentive to your body, it signals if your activity becomes harmful. If you feel soreness in muscles and joints, you should lessen your exercise intensity until your body gets used to it.

  9. Consult with your personal care assistant and make changes in your diet according to the recommendations of your elderly care provider. As you start being active, you need to eat accordingly even if you have excess weight.

  10. Never do exercises being sick or feeling Drink more water, it will maintain your unwell. If you have a sore throat or caught flu, metabolism in a good condition and don’t do exercises for a while. If you missed increase your endurance. two weeks or more, start slowly.
