Over 60? Weak Glutes Can Ruin Your Balance — Do These Chair Moves First

Описание: 🪑 Over 60? Weak glutes can quietly destroy your balance — even if you walk every day.

Most seniors believe balance problems start at the feet or knees.
But fall-prevention specialists and physical therapists know the real truth:

👉 Balance starts at the glutes.
After 60, glute muscles don’t always get “weak” first —
they stop activating at the right time.

That delay is what makes:
• Standing up feel shaky
• Weight shifts feel unsafe
• Walking starts feel unstable
• Confidence slowly disappear

🚫 Walking alone does NOT fix this.
In this video, you’ll learn doctor-recommended chair moves that activate the exact glute muscles responsible for balance, stability, and independence — before you walk.

These movements are commonly used in:
• Fall-prevention programs
• Senior physical therapy
• Post-rehabilitation balance training

✅ WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
✔ Why weak or inactive glutes ruin balance after 60
✔ Why walking misses the muscles that matter most
✔ How chair-supported movements safely activate glutes
✔ How to improve balance without floor exercises
✔ How specialists train stability before movement
