How to strengthen the legs of a 50-year-old

HẠ MÂY (Theo livestrong) |

Exercises to strengthen the legs do not require special equipment, the 50-year-old can practice anywhere and can bring efficiency.

If you are new to leg strengthening, start with chair exercises. Sitting down helps reduce pressure on your legs, and if you have balance problems, chair exercises can be a safe solution.

For each chair exercise, we need to sit up straight and do 10 reps on each leg. Hold each completed position for 1-2 seconds, then lower yourself back to the starting position. Do a maximum of 3 sets of 10 consecutive reps.

1. Kneel Raises: Raise your knees without leaning back. This move affects the muscles in the front of your hips.

2. Stee: Stretch one knee and contract the muscles in the front of your thighs.

3. Raise your toes: Keep your heels on the ground, raising your toes toward the ceiling. You will feel the muscles in the front of your leg stretch.

4. Lift your heels: Press your toes into the ground and lift your heels. This move will strengthen the muscles in the back of your calves.
