Q. How to create an exercise class for the elderly (step-by-step recovery exercise)
There are many good exercises for the elderly introduced by various experts on YouTube, but I felt that there were not enough videos to continue exercising systematically. We decided that it would be a good idea to suggest exercises by dividing the difficulty level of exercise so that the elderly can choose according to their own physical condition. Also, as elderly people who are vulnerable due to the coronavirus become more desperate to exercise at home, I felt it was necessary to make the same attempt as me in terms of improving the quality of sports content and securing diversity.
Q. A message to my classmates
As an exercise instructor for the elderly since 2011, I have met various people and felt that the physical burden of moving increases as people get older, so practicing exercise at home is very important. It can be said that proper posture is the first step in health management, especially in old age when sedentary time increases.
In the meantime, I designed exercises using exercises such as gymnastics, yoga, ballet, and strength training that I have taught. In order to save you the trouble of searching for safe and systematic exercises separately, we have prepared a convenient way to choose and practice low-intensity to high-intensity exercises at home. From sitting in a chair to standing exercises for safe walking, we have gradually increased the difficulty of exercise to improve physical function and make everyday life more comfortable.
When you continue to participate in sports, a pleasant change comes at any moment without even knowing it. I hope you experience this pleasant change while exercising with me!
