According to the CDC, you still need at least 30 minutes of exercise a day when you’re over 60. This exercise can include anything from walking to swimming to going for a jog. However, many of us have joints that ache, and moving around at high speeds just isn’t possible anymore.

But what if there was a way to exercise without getting out of your chair?

Well, luckily for you there is a way! And it’s called chair yoga.

Yoga is great because it offers lower-intensity workouts for those who are new to the practice or don’t have the ability to handle more intense exercise. But you aren’t stuck to these low-intensity workouts. There are also moderate and advanced poses that you can work up to over time.

No matter what benefit you are seeking from your workouts, chair yoga truly has it all.

For instance, chair yoga has been scientifically proven to help ease pain in individuals with arthritis and chronic joint pain. What’s more, it has also proven to help with improving balance, flexibility, and mobility as well.

Looking for a more intense cardio workout or a type of exercise designed to help you lose weight? Not to worry! Chair yoga has your back in these areas, too, as long as you’re willing to get your blood pumping! Yoga can even be a great way to build muscle strength.

The benefits of chair yoga are endless, and it’s pretty easy to do, too. And having a guide showing you all of the steps along the way couldn’t make it simpler.
