Leg Endurance Exercises For Seniors

Improve Leg Endurance Exercises (Intermediate Level)

Join me (Mike - Physiotherapist) for a new Strength Saturday Exercise Session (#6). Where we work the endurance of our legs!

Today we are not only going to work our strength, but we are going to focus more so on our muscular endurance!

In case you have forgotten, Muscular strength is the amount of weight you can lift or move.

Muscular endurance is how many times you can move or lift that weight, before you get exhausted.

Muscular endurance is important in your day to day life, to move and to lift things. Think about when you are to walk up a large flight of stairs, or go on a large walk (especially with hills). Your muscular endurance is being tested.

As with any component of fitness, muscular endurance can be trained and improved…. at any age.

Which is what we do today. Today’s exercise video we do higher repetitions and use equipment to work that muscular endurance (and strength).

So let’s get moving!

In this video we cover:

1. Intro

2. Exercises Begin - Round 1 (x 25)

3. Exercises Round 2 (x 18)

4. Exercises Finished - Outro

Single-Leg Strength Exercises for Stronger Legs, Core & Better Balance. (More Challenging Routine)

Single-Leg Strength Exercises for seniors - stronger legs, core & better balance

Performing single-leg exercises can help pinpoint any muscle imbalances, whilst strengthening those legs, your core whilst also working your balance.

It's not uncommon to have muscle imbalances between sides, however, this can lead to further issues, such as pain and difficulties with movement.

Having muscle imbalances could be from a variety of reasons. A common reason is from a past injury that didn't receive proper rehabilitation, or pain in one side leading to less use of the painful side.

You may have equal strength on both sides, however, it is also a good idea to incorporate some single-leg exercises into your exercise routine to ensure both legs are equally strong.

This will ensure tasks like walking up stairs or curbs are always simple! :)

In this video, I introduce you to a single-leg strengthening exercise routine to help get your legs stronger (equally)!

Do your best and always be progressing!
