Who says hitting 60 means slowing down? Staying mobile is the secret to making the most of life’s adventures—whether you’re keeping up with grandkids, fine-tuning your golf swing, or just standing up without groaning.
As we grow older, staying active is less about fitness and more about maintaining freedom. So, how do you stay agile and avoid slowing down? Here are some practical tips to help you stay energized and on the move well into your golden years.
1. Take a Daily Walk
Kickstart lasting mobility with a simple habit: walking. A brisk daily walk boosts heart health and strengthens muscles critical for staying active.
Whether it’s a stroll through the neighborhood or laps at the park, regular walking can enhance endurance and overall vitality after 60.
2. Incorporate Strength Training
Building strength isn’t just for the younger crowd. Lightweight weightlifting, resistance bands, or bodyweight exercises can help maintain muscle, bone health, and independence.
Aim to train major muscle groups twice weekly to support strength and everyday function.
