7 In Home Care Exercises for Seniors
2
There are more than 54 million adults over the
age of 65 in the U.S. Whether youre in that
group or love someone who is, youre learning
more about elderly care. To some, that means
exploring nursing options. And perhaps the way
you want to go is in home care. Its not just
about finding the at home nurse, though.
Maintaining your health means incorporating a bit
of exercise, too. The best moves for you will be
challenging, but low-impact gentle enough on
your body, but enough to keep you at your best.

If you need help building a fitness routine, look
no further than these seven exercises. You and
your provider, family members or nurse can do
them together!
CHAIR YOGA
Yoga has so many health benefits youve
probably heard practitioners sing its praises.
You can boost your flexibility, increase strength
and center your balance without putting too much
strain on the body.

CHAIR SQUATS
On that note, you can build up leg and glute
strength with the help of a chair, too. This is a
good one to try when you have in-home care or a
nurse with you. You can reach out for support if
you need it for this balance and muscle-building
move.
All you have to do is put a chair behind you and
slowly lower yourself into it.

WALL PUSH-UPS
Now, lets work on some upper body strength all
you need is a wall. Stand up to two feet away and
place your hands shoulder-width apart on the wall
in front of you.Then, bend your elbows, just as
you would doing a push-up on the floor. Youll
move closer and closer to the wall until its
time to push yourself back up to a standing
position. A few reps on a regular basis will
make your chest and arms stronger.

SINGLE FOOT STAND
On that note, stand behind a chair and hold it
with one or two hands. Then, lift your left foot
and put it onto your right. Hold it there, then
return your left foot to the floor. Repeat
back and forth, alternating which foot you lift
and move. You can do this move in place of the
flamingo. Or, you can use it as a way to build up
your strength and hold one foot in the air at a
time flamingo-style.

RESISTANCE BAND WORKOUTS
If youre willing to invest in a few fitness
accessories for your in home care, then
resistance band workouts could be perfect for
you.With resistance bands, you can easily adjust
your workouts so theyre lightweight or a bit
more strenuous. Either way, they make for a
gentle strengthening workout.
