As we age, we begin to lose muscle mass, bone density, and balance. Strength training helps slow that loss and even rebuilds strength. It supports healthier aging by improving mobility and protecting joints, and it also helps to reduce the risk of falling while supporting heart and brain health.
It’s never too late to start strength training. Even a few sessions each week can make a meaningful difference at any age. If you’re interested in incorporating simple strength moves into your routine, consider:
• Chair squats
• Wall push-ups
• Resistance band exercises
• Light dumbbell or household-weight lifts
• Standing balance exercises
Be sure to consult your healthcare provider before starting any program.
