It’s a great daily routine at any age. Buy a worksheet with this seated exercise routine at askdoctorjo.com/purchase-the-9-seated-exercises-for-seniors-worksheet
For this seated exercise routine, start off with a warmup, cervical rotation and sidebend, as well as deep breathing and seated trunk rotations to help get the muscles warm and loose.
For the first few seated exercises, using a resistive band is a great way to really focus on strengthening the muscles, but if you don’t have one, it’s not required to do the exercises. Shoulder horizontal abduction, shoulder ER, and seated rows with a band are great for the shoulders, neck, and back area.
Next, a long arc quad (LAQ) or knee extension might not seem like a lot, but it does a great job of working the muscles in the knees and hips.
Finally, a seated heel/toe raise will work on the lower legs and foot/ankle area.
