Keep Charging at and beyond 60 ๐ชโจ
As we keep spinning around the sun ๐, our bodies change โ and thatโs okay. Here are some quick tips you can start using today to stay strong, mobile and confident:
๐ฅ Warm up properly
As we age, we naturally hold less water in our tissues. A good warm-up helps lubricate your joints with synovial fluid and gets everything moving smoothly.
๐ Consistency > Boom & Bust
Skip the all-or-nothing workouts. Focus on good form, technique and steady progress. And remember โ itโs your workout. Need a break? Take it.
๐๏ธโโ๏ธ Strength Training is Essential
From 30โ40 onwards, we can lose up to 8% of muscle mass per decade โ a process called sarcopenia.
Muscle helps:
โ
Reduce falls risk
โ
Support and cushion joints
โ
Improve blood sugar control
โ
Promote immunity
๐ Aim to lift weights 3x per week
๐ฆตBalance = Brain Training
Standing on one leg might seem simple, but itโs powerful. It trains balance, mobility, strength and even supports healthy brain ageing ๐ง โจ
