Seniors Can Do Workouts at a Lesser Pace
People in their 50s and onwards must realize that at this point in their lives, there are very noticeable changes in their body condition. A lot of these people have worked sitting in their offices the whole day. They have lived sedentary lives. They may have also neglected their health by living abusive lifestyles. At this age, muscle mass will have deteriorated somehow, bone density is dissipating and energy is not in a level that you will feel happy about.
However, these are not reasons to think that you should completely shy away from workouts. There are senior workouts that will work for people in this age bracket. It only means that they should go for relatively low and medium intensity exercises. Frequency should be toned down to maybe 4-5 times a week to give enough time for recovery. Workout duration of 30 minutes to an hour with rep range of 6-12 should be just right.
