Gentle stretching mostly done in a chair, finishing standing, to ease aches and stiffness at your own pace.
SeniorShape Fitness offers this soothing stretching routine for days when everything aches: most exercises are done in a chair, and standing stretches close the session. The advice is simply to do what you can and listen to your body. It suits soreness, illness, arthritis, MS or fibromyalgia, and runs about 27 minutes.
Equipment setup
Who Is It For?
Anyone who feels sore, stiff or run down, including people with arthritis, MS or fibromyalgia, and wants very gentle movement.
Who Is It Not For?
Not for you if you want a sweaty, strengthening or cardio session; this is slow, soothing stretching meant for recovery.
Key Benefits
Eases stiffness and soothes tired muscles with gentle stretches, a kind way to bring a little movement into hard days.
Things to Keep in Mind
Move only within a comfortable range and stop if anything hurts; check with your doctor first if you live with arthritis, MS, fibromyalgia or pain.
