6 Exercises to Keep You Fit Through Your 70s

1. Backward Walking


You’ve spent many decades walking forward and, presumably, did pretty well with it. At this age, though, we are more prone to falling when stepping back from something supportive, such as a counter or table. Such missteps can lead to bruises and soreness or, in the worst-case scenario, a fractured hip or pelvis. The exercise of walking backward can be challenging, but it works to improve stability and balance.


Note: Be sure to stay vigilant with this activity; always pace yourself and place safety first. If you have limited space, doing laps is fine—hallways are great places for that.
 

 

Step 1: Allow plenty of space for movement. You can either stand with your arms by your sides or hold them out from your body for better balance.


Step 2: Step straight back approximately 2 feet with your right foot. Then, take a backward step with your left foot. Take your time, and pay particular attention to your balance to avoid falls.


Step 3: Perform backward walking for 1 minute per set for 3 sets.

 

2. Stepping Jacks

3. Standing Single-Leg Knee Lifts

4. Chair Squats

5. Touch Toe/Touch Sky

6. Single-Leg Floor Touches

    Everybody loves a winner, it has been said, but nobody knows you when you’re down and out. One of the often unappreciated benefits of adversity is that it accelerates the process of identifying your true friends. Most of us have many acquaintances and associates, but we are indeed fortunate if we have a handful of real friends. You will very quickly identify yours when you ask them for help. The wise individual is the one who, when asked for assistance, recognizes that he may one day find himself in the same situation.
