Low Impact Cardio Workout For Seniors
I want to remind you, that when it comes to exercise, there is no finish line.
Although you may not want to hear this, exercise is something you must do consistently to keep your body in the best physical condition.
To keep your body stronger it takes consistent strength exercises each week, or you may find your muscles becoming weaker.
To keep your body balancing well, requires movement and balance exercises or you may find yourself becoming more unsteady on your feet.
To keep your body fit, it takes exercise that gets your heart rate up, or you may find yourself becoming shorter of breath with less activity.
I could apply this to all the components of physical fitness, but in short, if you keep your exercise up, you’re going to get and keep, the benefits. If you don’t, you’re going to lose it!
On the topic of getting and keeping fit, I want to introduce you to a type of cardio known as High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT).
“HIIT” workouts involve short periods of high(er) intensity exercise alternated with periods of rest or recovery.
By doing these types of workouts, you can get increased health benefits (such as increased fitness and weight loss) with less time spent working out.
This week, we are going to go through a beginner’s seated HIIT workout. Click below to get moving with me.
In this video we cover:
This is a beginner style HIIT workout, it only goes for 10 minutes, so give it a go and let me know how you went.
