Benefits of Seated Exercises

Seated exercises using a chair are a low-impact way to boost overall health with minimal stress on the joints. These exercises offer comparable benefits to other types, but with less harm or pain. Key benefits include:

Increased heart rate: Regular seated exercises enhance heart and cardiovascular health by improving the body's efficiency at delivering oxygen and blood.

Improved blood circulation: Chair exercises that involve arm and leg motion can enhance blood circulation, which may reduce issues such as coldness, tingling, indigestion, and exhaustion. Better blood flow lessens pain and swelling in legs, feet, and hands.

Wall Pushups for Elderly People

Wall pushups are an easy strength exercise appropriate for older people, like your grandmother, to learn and practice. This exercise uses a wall for support, with palms flat against the wall at shoulder height and width. By moving towards and away from the wall while keeping arms straight, the exercise helps improve arm strength when repeated 20-25 times, 2-4 times a week.
