Description
This video focuses on Strength Training for Walking, designed for Seniors and beginners at all levels. It features exercises for seniors over 50 at beginner and intermediate levels that will build muscle in your glutes, legs, and core.
Just getting started with strength training? Work out with my mom. All of her leg and core exercises are done standing with up to 10 repetitions, just perfect for beginners. Or ready to ramp up your weight lifting? Challenge yourself with me as we add more reps and do two moves on the floor at the intermediate or advanced level.
This workout for seniors over 60 can be done with or without weights. We use dumbbells but you can use anything that's easy to hold such as water bottles, cans or bags of beans.
Here's the format: We do three sets of 5 strength exercises to really challenge your body and build muscle!
