Chair-Based Strength: 5 Moves to Improve Walking After 60

A trainer-recommended guide for adults over 60: five chair-friendly exercises—Seated Marches, Seated Leg Extensions, Chair Sit-to-Stands, Seated Heel Raises, and Seated Knee Lifts With Hold—designed to strengthen hip flexors, quads, calves, and core to restore walking speed, balance, and endurance with low joint strain; supported by research showing functional, lower-body work can improve gait in older adults more effectively than isolated machine-based training.
