Strength training is crucial for seniors to maintain muscle mass, enhance bone density, and promote functional independence.
Start with body-weight exercises and gradually incorporate light weights. Always prioritize safety and proper form to prevent injury.
Include exercises like squats, modified push-ups, and resistance band workouts to build strength effectively.
