Workouts For Seniors Who Want To Regain Their Youth

Chair Squats Are A Great Leg Exercise

SFSportSpinePhysicalTherapy

Practising squats with good form can help build strength and muscle in the thighs, hips, and glutes. To begin, stand in front of a chair with your feet shoulder-width apart. Bend your knees, putting weight on your heels, then stick your hips back and arms straight out to gain better balance. Sit down until you make contact with the chair. As soon as you feel the chair, slowly stand back up. Try to do so without rocking or swaying. Repeat for twelve to fifteen repetitions.

To modify the workout to make it easier you can place your hands on your thighs, or if you need the exercise to be a little bit more difficult, do it while holding weights or a medicine ball in your hands.
