Methods for the elderly to self-exercise their joints

   1. Lift your arms in turn or at the same time, keeping your arms as straight as possible.

  2. Lie on your back or prone and stretch your body. When lying on your back, lift your waist as high as possible.

  3. Sit or stand leaning on something, lift one leg, and turn the soles of your feet back and forth, left and right, alternately.

  4. Flex and stretch your fingers vigorously, gradually increasing the speed. You can alternate between left and right hands or perform it with both hands at the same time.

  5. Turn your head back and forth, left and right, to a certain extent, and the movement should be slow.

  6. Raise your arms flat and perform squatting and standing movements. ⑦Alternately perform kicking movements with the left and right legs. When kicking, try to keep your legs straight and raised.

  7. Bend to the left, right, and forward.

  The above actions only need to be carried out for 10-15 minutes each time. Everything should be done in moderation and within one's ability. Why not slow down the pace of aging through exercise?
