Low Impact Cardio & Strength Workout for Seniors // Osteoporosis Friendly

This Workout begins with a standing warmup and cardio section. All movements are low impact and easy on your joints! It is also osteoporosis friendly because there are no bending, rounding of the spine or twisting movements. Additionally, it includes bone density building strength exercises.
After the heart rate increasing cardio section, we move to a blank wall space for some wall assisted knee bends, calf raises and push ups.
Note: the further you feet are away from the wall, the more challenging the push up will be.
Finally, we conclude the workout in a seated position using a sturdy chair. Grab your light weights/dumbbells (or water bottles, soup cans etc...) for some arm, shoulder and upper back strengthening exercises. Make sure to stay for the seated stretches.
This workout is great for anyone who is looking to increase their overall fitness level. It's completed at a manageable pace. Please do not attempt to do any of the movements if you are not comfortable with them. Should you have any questions regarding your ability please check with your doctor first.
