Attention Seniors
Are you exercising regularly? Some of the indicators that you are falling behind are:
1. Can you stand up from a chair without using your hands? If you can't, you have a problem.
if you cannot it means you have weak legs and you are in danger of falling. Please practice
every day. All it takes is 10 sit stands without using your hands. Add in calf raises in order
in order to strengthen your feet, ankles and calves. This will help you walk better and have
better balance.
2. Can you walk backwards 10 steps in a straight line? If not you may have cognitive problems.
3. Can you balance on one foot for 30 seconds without holding on? The more you practice
the better your balance will be.
