Can't Stand Long? Seated Exercises for Seniors with Limited Mobility

Описание: Can't Stand Long? Seated Exercises for Seniors with Limited Mobility

Complete seated exercise routine for seniors who can't stand long due to pain, dizziness, weakness, or balance problems. This workout includes six seated exercises: seated leg extension press, seated glute squeeze with hip lift, seated row with resistance band or towel, seated chest press with isometric hold, seated bicep curls with progressive resistance, and seated core rotation with resistance. Research shows chair-based exercises improve upper body strength and lower body function in seniors without requiring standing ability.
Seniors who can't stand long lose muscle at the same rate as those who don't exercise at all because they avoid movement. This seated workout targets every major muscle group used for daily activities while eliminating standing requirements. The routine strengthens legs for better standing tolerance, improves balance from a stable seated position, builds upper body strength for daily tasks, and activates core muscles for stability. Each exercise includes modifications for arthritis, severe weakness, and limited mobility with troubleshooting for common problems like dizziness or back pain.
Perfect for seniors who can't stand more than five minutes, arthritis pain limiting standing exercises, balance problems causing fall risk, dizziness when standing, wheelchair users wanting strength training, recovery from surgery or injury, and anyone needing safe home exercises requiring only a sturdy chair. Subscribe to Senior Healthcare Plus for evidence-based seated workouts helping seniors build strength without standing.
