    I’m 65 years old and have been unable to sit for a decade, so I need to keep my legs strong for a life of standing and walking.
    My daily routine - every single day, ten to 15 squats, along with a quick five minute exercise routine right after my shower. I started this 6 months ago and it’s been an absolute game changer.

      Also try kneeling exercises if your knees allow, many older people simply cannot kneel without pain. I kneel regularly and even walk around the bedroom on my knees (carpeted) and this really helps keep my knees in good shape.

    I’m 58 and can’t believe how much my body has changed. I got a work at home job during the pandemic and boom, everywhere started hurting. I just wasn’t moving as much. Old injuries got tighter, new injuries wouldn’t heal. I used to be so active but now it is even more crucial to not only stay active but do daily stretching and strengthening. I skip a day and pay the price. Getting stronger is my goal but exercising daily just to maintain existing progress is required before I can even think about getting stronger! Eating the right foods and sleeping adequately are also necessary to make this new regime work. It’s a lot of work to stay healthy as we age. Those days when I would bounce out of bed and forget to drink water or eat breakfast are over!

    • @MindBodyHorizons
      @MindBodyHorizons  18 днів тому +3

      Thanks for sharing this! I strongly believe movement/exercise is the KEY pillar of health, which can then lead to all the other things: i.e. good diet, sleep, stress. And you are right, without movement and regular activity, things get tighter and new injuries heal much slower

    This is great and I can attest that it works! While physical therapy, my therapist had me doing this exercise in a couple of different ways. But I did notice that I was able squat in a low position without having a problem standing up from that position. I have gotten away from it gradually and after seeing this I will start this tomorrow. Along with planks, I’m about to get my strength and mobility back! Thank you for this video, which I randomly found, lol!

    My favorite part of this video is that you highlight the one problem many people over look! And that’s the risk of sarcopenia which I feel like doesn’t get talked about enough! The best part about it is that we all have the ability to prevent this condition with weekly strength training! The Chair Stand (Squat) is definitely one of the most functional exercises since it closely resembles activities that most people HAVE to do on a daily basis such as: standing from a recliner, getting up from a toilet, getting out of a vehicle! And I love how easy it is to tailor to many different levels regardless of mobility or strength deficits. Great content Shrey keep up the great work and congrats on 100k! I hope one day to achieve that milestone!

    Great video! 70 here, done a lot of yoga. For those looking for a little more challenge, see Super Brain Yoga (a squat variation). . Observe all usual precautions, start slow, stop if pain, when in doubt speak to a professional!! Btw, also want to mention an oil called Mahanarayan Oil, aka Ibuprofen in a bottle, GREAT for all kinds of musculoskeletal issues (apply topically), minimal if any side effects.. Have a great day!

    At 81, I have been trying to get fit and regain muscle for a couple of years with resistance training with little success. Recently I discovered a UA-cam video about how seniors need extra protein to gain muscle because of declining hormones. Consuming 30 grams of protein about the time of exercise, especially the amino acid lucine, would act a trigger to add muscle. I now take 60 grams of protein powder daily as well as natural protein sources and have begun to add muscle. One thing to keep in mind, exercise will add strength without adding muscle just because it improves nerve connections.

  • @DanceintheRaine666
    @DanceintheRaine666 6 днів тому

    THANK YOU SO SINCERELY...I am a 64 y.o. woman...but was most definitely OVER EXERCISING after 60 (3H of Strength Training daily for 9 MONTHS, followed by 1H cardio a day for the subsequent 9 MONTHS) in an effort to increase function/build muscle/lose visceral fat gained with menopause....with whole foods and EXTREME caloric defecit.
    No. Postive. Noticeable. Change on the visceral fat. The weight gain did not bother me as the muscle gained was beneficial.
    I was CONSUMING far too little PROTEIN and FIBRE (though I was eating fermented foods). Upped those macros...continued the daily walks (58 min accumulative a day).
    Worked on sleep hygeine.
    I push myself so hard...but this MAKES SENSE...as does LISTENING to my BODY.
    I've had severe weight-bearing pain since 1979 and the prediction that I would need hip replacement surgery "imminently" and could "expect to be wheelchair bound" before 25 motivated me to IGNORE my pain & PUSH MYSELF such that I was "lean and STRONG".
    DECADES of IGNORING what my body was telling me is, my former Doctor told me, the main reason I have remained ambulatory.
    Yet at this age (my 65th xp level approaching), I've had to RELEARN how to LISTEN to my body.
    Such intelligent (and applicable) advice.
    BELIEF is a powerful albeit dangerous force.
    We women ARE NOT MEN we can not EXERCISE the way men do...or those DECADES YOUNGER.
    Research the protein and fibre needed pre-menopausal & post menopausal...and adapt one's exercise to realistic targets.
    It's most helpful to have specific suggestions for "fire keeper" or RAID BOSS level HUMANS. ❤

Strength training together with a diet of mostly natural food (avoid processed) with extra protein and fats like butter and extra virgin olive oil are the key to long term healthy living. Creatine monohydrate supplementation will help.

I also cycle regularly but have noticed a significant decrease in my performance over the past few years, although before this occurred I was riding better than most 40 year olds.

    I’m 67 and I work out at a CrossFit gym 5 days a week so I can ride my mountain bike on the weekends. At age 58 I began training in martial arts after a 14 year period of little to no exercise. Started with a kickboxing boot camp class that led to taking a mixed martial arts style called Cuong Nhu. I had to do this because the medical community had consistently failed me whenever I reported a physical issue. “That’s just part of getting older” is a favorite phrase.Since starting CrossFit I have put on an additional 20 pounds of muscle and all I had to do was double my protein intake. Not bad for someone with cardiomyopathy, asthma and COPD. I get sore from working out but I have found that working through it helps me. Medical cannabis also helps with the soreness as well as improving the overall attitude towards working out. How many 67 year old men do you know that can do a full front split? Get off the dang couch! If you don’t use the capabilities of your body to their fullest you are going to lose them. My life, health and attitude have significantly improved since beginning my fitness journey. You don’t have to go to extremes, just do something. Every day!

    Most people over 45 are on Statins in the UK, apparently to tackle high cholesterol. Unfortunately its deliberately prescribed to cause harm and if it isn't then your doctor is ignorant to the side effects which are deliberate. Statins block the production of 2 very important enzymes by the liver, Coq10 responsible for maintaining muscle mass and prevention of muscular dystrophy, also Alpha GPC is blocked from being produced and this is another enzyme produced by the liver. Its responsible for preventing cognitive decline and is normally stored in the Hippocampus part of the brain. You dont need to be a Dr or scientist to realise that if the brain is starved of Alpha GPC, it will sacrifice good brain cells to produce its own Alpha GPC and the evidence for this is clear. Look at the increase per population since Statins was introduced in the 1980s. You either act on this information or keep trusting your doctors. Do the research on all medications before you take them or suffer the consequences. Its no good looking at vlogs like this if you don't tackle the cause of your problem first. There are many more medications that deliberately cause harm but I chose Statins because its the biggest prescribed medication for the over 45s in the UK.

Also learn bb bench pass, OH press, pull ups or chins (get a power rack with pull up/chin up bar) BB bent over rows. Learn Starting Strength method, add weight slowly, but make it hard and challenging, give yourself time to recover, yes you will get sore and tired. This will change your life for the better.

      Lacto Reuterii and salads marinated in balsamic vinegar plus other things and keeping metals like iron, magnesium, manganese, zinc, copper in check with some sun exposure is very helpful to some.

      I would suggest holding onto the edge of your kitchen sink so the chair doesn’t tip over!

      You have it backwards. Low carbs, low sugar, high cholesterol, and saturated fats as well as protein will make you better. Cut out high oxylate foods such as spinach, almonds, sweet potatoes, potatoes. Cut out seed oils. Cut out vegetables that are high in lectins. In fact cut out vegetables. Metabolic syndrome is probably the leading cause of joint pain. Oxalates are crystalline like slivers of glass everywhere in your joints and organs. Doctors usually only monitor the crystals if they are present in the urine. If you continue to drink that spinach smoothie you are at risk of kidney problems.
